My personal message:

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

After months of hard training in the cold and wet conditions during the winter, marathon day duly arrived and we were bathed in glorious sunshine throughout the 26.2 miles.  Great for spectators, but a complete nightmare for us poor runners!!

I managed to get round in 3 hours 19 minutes; slightly slower than my target time but not too bad given the conditions.

More importantly, thanks to your generosity I've raised around £1,750 for the Hospice, which is great news and warmly appreciated by all those who need to use the excellent facilities they provide.

Will I do it again next year?. Who knows.  Ask me in 9 months time!!

I'm back in training, but this time for shorter races.  I'm also looking to improve my golf handicap!!

Many thanks for your support.

Ian
