Well I did it! 

Thank you everyone for your support it really is appreciated. Some of the miles were pretty tough, but I loved every minute and your donations definitely helped me keep going. 

Many thanks again,

Thank you for visiting my page.

I guess we all have journey’s, but my running journey started in June 2017 when I joined a group of new work colleagues in a Couch to 5k eight week running program. 

To be honest, although I thought I liked running, I hadn’t run for about seven years and my first steps running in the C-2-5k, had bits of me wobbling about that I didn’t know where there!

However after a few minor injuries in August that year I ventured and joined the parkrun (yes small ‘p’) fraternity and since then I have walked run & shuffled over fifty parkruns.

I decided then to make a step up in running a bit and joined the Axe Valley Runners in April 2019. And in a moment of madness I threw my hat into the 2020 London Marathon ballot, and here we are. COVID changed things so I completed my first virtual marathon in Seaton in horrendous  weather conditions, and now need to prepare fully for the big one! 

As a ballot entry qualifier, I don’t need to raise a specific sum, so anything you can afford to donate is very kind and most welcome, thank you

Your support means so much  and will help me with the determination required to run the many many miles beforehand in training complete the 2021 London Marathon on 3rd October. 

Thank you for your kindness and support 

Shaun
