Hello  - I 've done it - managed to finish my first ever Marathon. It wasn't the best of times  - 5hrs 51 minutes and 52 seconds. My leg lasted until about 18 miles and then I am afraid I had to run, walk/hobble to the finish. But I still managed to beat Katie Price and Peter Andre.

It was a fantastic day out. I was helped by the crowd and my Mum and Jayne being at the race. I have never heard Lisa B being shouted so much.

Thanks very much to everyone that has contributed to my fundraising - I am nearly there. If you were waiting to see if I would do it, there are no excuses left.

Thanks for everyone's support - here's to next year's one.
