Hi,
I managed to finish the race in 3:29:42. Things were going very well at the halfway mark which I crossed at 1:31:58, then about 15 miles I started feeling very sick, dizzy and got severe cramps. The last 11 miles were absolute hell, but I got there in the end!
Thanks to everyone who sponsored me. Together we raised more than £1900 for the Christian Blind Mission!
Best wishes
Simon

Hi,
I'm running the Flora London Marathon in April, this being the first one that I've attempted!
37 million people worldwide are blind and up to 80% of all blindness is avoidable. With our help the Christian Blind Mission can provide the solution. To read more go to:

Barclays Capital will be matching £4£ the first £750 that I raise, so that means that every pound you sponsor me for is doubled!
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Christian Blind Mission UK 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.
Please sponsor me to support the wonderful work that is carried out by the Christian Blind Mission, to provide me with the motivation for the training leading up to the race and to help me make it across the finish line!
Many thanks in advance.
Best wishes, Simon
