Well, last years gale force winds, driving rain and sleet before during and after the event, ankle deep water .......all left me thinking I'd never do it again!  But then there was the thought of what a normal marathon would be like!   So I entered...

The run up to this event has been far more challenging with 4 weeks out with achilles issue and I thought it was all over for a while.  However with 17.5miles long run done in training now and everything well, it is time to let the target times that could have been go and focus on the real reason for running which is to raise some cash for a great cause!

I'd ask for you to reach into your pockets and help my motivation over the last few weeks.......So please dig deep and donate now!

Thankyou for everyone who does.

Daniel
