<p style="margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 14.25pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c;">All was going worryingly well til 19 miles and then I really slowed down. The last 6 miles were the toughest thing I have done for a long time. Mental struggles a voice saying STOP NOW, my legs cramping up making it impossible to actually run!</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 14.25pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c;">I am really proud to have not walked and for much of the run it was a wonderful,freeing, moving and exciting thing to do.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 14.25pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: Arial; color: #1c1c1c;">The sun shone and so many people on personal journeys raising money for their charities.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0cm; margin-bottom: .0001pt; line-height: 14.25pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Arial;">I am very excited/nervous about running the marathon for Catch22. With each painful mile I stumble along in my training I think of the potential money and profile I am raising for a charity that is very close to my heart. If I make £40,000 this year, I will do it in a mankini next year!<span style="color: #1c1c1c;"> </span></span></p>
