I started my training in July as I turned 50, but a couple of weeks ago had a small set back. A re-accuring knee injury had got too painful and a trip to the consultant resulted in an operation. The operation was just a temporary fix as it is more than likely that I will need a new knee next year.
I plan get back on track with my training starting next week.
I appreciate that many of you have been very generous sponsoring Amanda over the past 3 years as she ran the London Marathon. I do recall many of you saying you would pay more to see me do something similar. Although running is certainly out of the question, I can cycle. I might even lose a bit of weight on the way.
I will be splitting the money I raise between 3 charities : ChildLine, Nordoff Robbins and Macmillan Cancer Support. All of these charities are extremely worthy causes and I really hope I can make a difference.
