Well good news I completed the 10km. I wanted to run in an hour or less and I managed to do that....just. My right knee (an old footie injury) started giving me problems from 4km onwards...so I had to slow down a little. Clearly this prevented me from breaking course records etc. I am feelin a little sore the morning after.
Many thanks to all of you who have donated and sponsored me. I now need to book an ppointment with a doctor!
The chariy I am running for does tremendous work in South Afria so please see if you can support the new and ongoing projects. Take a momemnt and go to the links.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Donald Woods Foundation gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
I promise to post the post race photo onto the site come Monday morning...the 13th July...duly doctored and slimmed down via the wonderful technology of photoshop! My personal photgrapher has not been able to keep my promise for me. Alas I went rhough the finishing line so fast it was a blur.....
