Story

Well ladies and gentlemen I did it!

 

I can honestly say that this was the hardest thing I have had to do. In weather which wasn't really good for lion mascots, I painfully got over the line in a time of 7hr 22mins.

 

With temperatures reaching above 40 and my heat rate over 180bpm the warm humid weather at the beginning as well as the hot sun afterwards meant I experienced along with many other costume wearing people 26.2 miles of hell.

 

On the plus side I got in the paper and a BBC interview but the most amazing part of yesterday was having photos with some of the supporters and helping a few 1st time runners keep going till the end and above all of course finishing.

 

Thank you to everyone who sponsored me, it means so much that you have all been so generous!
