Dear All

So it’s all over for another year, and this is to say a big, big thank you to you all. I’ve still got some pledges to come in, so though we won’t crack the £5k mark, it looks like we’ll have raised more than last year for the Anthony Nolan Trust.

The 2007 Marathon took me to places I hope never to go to again! As I mentioned in my previous update, a bad cold four weeks ago knocked out a couple of weeks training. That, together with the weather made it tough race for me. At the half way point, everything was looking good for a 3 hours 30 time, and then I hit the wall. The last 10km I could have done without.

So, the result after all of that… almost exactly the same as last year.

I spent the last hour thinking “never again”. But one always appreciates most what one has to fight hardest for. Now it’s all over, perhaps next year?

Thanks again for all your support and encouragement.

Mark
