*UPDATE - I FRIGGING DID IT*
Thanks for everyone's sponsorship! In the WORST conditions ever, I managed to get round (not too uncomfortably I've gotta say, anyone up for another?! 😂) in a snail pace of 5 hours 20. But hey, I did it! Anymore sponsorship would be much appreciated. Thanks all xxxx
Hi everyone,
For some bizarre reason, I've decided to try and run 26.2 miles in October in the Yorkshire marathon. Since moving back to Leeds last summer, I've gotten the running bug. I've done 3 half marathons this year. If I can do this marathon then I can do anything!! I'm running it with my good friend Neil, who ran the Birmingham Marathon last year.
Mind is a charity close to my heart, so that's who I'm fundraising for. 1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem this year and suicide is the biggest killer of men under 40. Stephen Fry is the President of Mind and he explains why Mind are so important here in his lovely, eloquent way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ep1Ot-0YlAU
Here's their website if you want to find out more about what they do: https://www.mind.org.uk/about-us/what-we-do
Thanks for your donations! It will make a HUGE difference if anyone can come and cheer me along on the day, you've no idea what a boost that is when you think you can't run anymore.
