Story
Thanks for your support with my London Marathon journey, which appears to be a marathon in itself!
Completed the virtual event on October 4th now have a year to train for the real thing!
My daughter, Imi, and we as a family have benefited hugely from the services offered by White Lodge. This is a small way of giving something back for the amazing care and support they have offered over the years.
I have never run a marathon before, the furthest distance before entering this was the Surrey Half in March 2019 in a time of 2:10:17, which was 11 seconds slower than my eldest daughter (Charlotte) and I struggled to finish that!
Planned events:
- Guildford 10K (Sunday 13th October) - COMPLETED (1:01:26)
- Dorney Lake Christmas 15K (Saturday 14th December) - COMPLETED (1:25:15)
- Thorpe/Egham Half (Sunday 2nd Feb) - COMPLETED (2:09:24)
- Surrey Half 2020 (Sunday 8th March) - COMPLETED (2:05.20)
- The Fox Ultra (Relay Team of 3) (Saturday 19th September) - COMPLETED (Leg 2 11.45 Miles1:48.35)
- #the40thRace virtual Marathon (Sunday 4th October) - COMPLETED (4:50:04 Run - Elapsed 5:30:53)

Having supported me in the Virtual Event, my daughter Charlotte and her friend Hazel Ferguson have taken the plunge and will be running the real event with me (although much faster!) this coming October.
