Things are going really well. I've hit around 200 miles running this year already so well on my way to 1000 miles this year.

The generosity I've seen from you guys already has been overwhelming so THANK YOU!. Because of all of you I've already hit the first milestone so I've updated my target from £250 to £500. Hopefully I'll nail that one too!!

As for the challenge; it doesnt get easier. My first ever marathon distance is cominng up on the 25th Feb - a full 26 miles off road in the Belvoir Challenge. I've got a bit of a pulled calf from the 8 mile Rauceby Ripper race I did on the 4th so the pressure is on to get another cheeky 20 miler in before the next big one. I'm confident though - and I'll get my arse round the course if it's the last thing I do. Well - the 2nd to last thing I do - the last thing of course being the 100km London To Brighton challenge that this is all in preparation for!!

Thanks again to everyone who has already sponsored me, to everyone who is about to and everyone else who has even taken time to look at my page.
