Wowweeeee!! I completed the London Marathon!!

Thank you everyone so very much for all your support, financial and emotional, it has been rather a roller coaster with an injury and consequent training problems but it was everyone who got me through!  I ran the first 19miles then had to resort to walk/running the rest which was incredibly difficult and my legs were just telling me to stop, but I didn't listen and crossed the finish line in 5hours 17minutes, and yes, I was smiling!

I am still raising money for the Ellen MacArthur Trust to send 4 children on their dream sailing holiday to help recover from horrible illnesses like cancer.  The pain in my legs will last little more than a few days, but these kids go through so much more.  Lets all dig deep for them to give them a break and rediscover the joys that life can hold.
