Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Despite the torrential rain, so many runners that an even pace was very hard to achieve and hills, hills and more hills, I managed to complete the course in 1.58.15. Whilst not the time I wanted, I'm happy for a middle-aged chap who hasn't run for 25 years!

The Geordie welcome and support was just the best, especially the children handing out jelly babies at 11 miles (much appreciated!)

Needless to say I feel so much better for the effort and the BHF have also benefitted, for which we are both very grateful - and the opportunity to gift will stay open until 16th December, so post event donations will be gratefully received.

Now, what next? A triathlon, more half-marathons or even the 'big one' - 26.2 miles.....decisons, decisions
