Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I got joy from supporters (friends, family and strangers) that really kept me going. And I had pain in those last 5 or 6 miles (wondering, where is that finish line?). But it was all worth it seeing that my time was 2:41:31, and I was equally overjoyed to see that my original fundraising hopes of £250 has been obliterated and smashed as we approach £900!

The spectators (like my EverLoving Bride Lucy) and the Dallaways had a tough day standing still in the cold. Don't let my short sleeves and shorts in the photos fool you. It was cold for those not running!

It was a run in 2 parts for me. First part was when I was wearing my silly rainbow top-hat. Second part was when I ditched that and an extra t-shirt. That's when I made an almost fatal error in pacing and really struggled!

Cat and Craig were great. What a team!
