Hello.
After my adventures running the London Marathon last year, I signed up again. It seemed a good idea at the time.
This year has been somewhat hectic, what with work and family commitments, hence I am posting this with only 2 weeks to raise my target for my Barnardos entry. Please help!
Training has been interesting, especially during that cold spell a while back. One advantage however is that my daughter has started running with me and has become my training buddy. We sometimes fit in a quick 10km run after work.
As per last year I am running the London 2011 Marathon for the charity 'Barnardos'. Barnados is one of the UK's leading charities and they are a fantastic bunch. I was very happy for them to accept my application to run for them again.
I will upload or email post marathon photos and my race time (only 4:05:37 to beat) so please check here after 17 April 2011. In fact give me a couple of days to recover at least.
Thank you so much for your support.
Mark Friend
