Virgin London Marathon 2010 · 25 April 2010 ·

As hard as we try, sometimes things can become too uncomfortable or painful to ignore. You don’t need to be in crisis or even in a relationship to use our services. If it’s important to you, then it’s important to us. We promise to listen and offer support in a non-judgemental and impartial way.

Story

Well it's over and what a great day it was, the weather was perfect, the crowds amazing and I am quite happy with my time ( 4.24.59 )  and the fact I did not stop once. It was tough but the crowds really do get you through those last few miles.
 
A big big thank you to everybody who has donated so far, which means I have reached my target but anyone can still donate.
 
Once again thanks for all your support will I do it again........... maybe ! 
 

 

Update:  Training going ok, did the Fleet half marathon in a P.B. 1.51.41 so I was pleased with that, had a long run last Sunday ( 20 miles ) it was tough. Having ruptured one of my achilles a few years back, I am really worried about the other one as both were really hurting and my legs started to cramp up.

One more long run I think then I feel I need to rest them a bit. 

A big thank you to everyone who has donated so far I am really pleased with the money I am raising.

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page,

I am a Virgin - Marathon runner, having completed a few half marathons  I thought it was about time I had a go at the big one, call it a mid-life crisis !

The whole thing scares me, but it's a challenge I am determined to do my very best.

I wanted to run for a local charity and heard Relateen have been doing some great work in the community. Relateen offers free counselling for young people affected by parental relationship breakdown.

Please give what you can as relateens main source of funds comes from the money raised in this event.

Thanks for all your support
