Whilst I may have run a full distance marathon a few years ago it is safe to say I am no where near the runner I was. It’s 3 and a half years since I completed the London marathon and since then I have been largely in-active making all of the usual excuses (I work too many hours to exercise. I am too tired to go out running etc. etc.) Enough is enough. Training for this half marathon is the motivation I need to get back on track!

My Father-in-Law works for the Ronald McDonald House Charities and I have heard first hand the amazing work that they do. Those pennies that go into the charity box at the till point at McDonalds help pay for accommodation for the parents/families of poorly children that are in hospitals a long way from home. Any donation of any sort will be greatly appreciated for this excellent charity. Thanks!
