Unfortunately, Ian has had to withdraw due to injury...however he's still actively fundraising on behalf of us all, so please don't give him too much stick!
And as of Friday 9th April, James Oldring has been ruled out with tendon damage to the ankle (or more simply, 'a touch of a leg' if you're horsey-minded). He is totally gutted, but has promised everyone that has sponsored him that he'll run it next year!
19th April: I think everyone is beginning to appreciate just how hard it is to even make the startline of the marathon, never mind complete it - Luke Harvey and Lizzie Lea also fall victim to injury within a week of the race day!
Any size of donation is very much appreciated and welcomed - thank you in advance from all of us for your support, and please do feel free to come and cheer us on (or laugh at us) on April 25th 2010!
