Final Fundraiser

Hi Everybody,

Sorry its been a bit quiet on the western front. It has been for a few reasons.....

Firstly I have been busy getting things ready for our final fundraiser which was on Saturday night. Our quiz night. We raised another £525 which has got our joint total so far to £5500!!!!!! Good times!!

Have been spending so much time on fund raising this time that I almost forgot I have a marathon to run.

And Secondly.........

I have been slightly pre occupied with the fact that I am unfortunately injured again.

When I started this blog I really wanted to be able to show the full trials & tribulations of training for a marathon. I have managed to do this from an injury & things going wrong perspective but I have not been able to demonstrate exactl how much training & miles should go into a normal marathon training plan as I didnt get anywhere near it this time!!

Still, advice & volcanic erruptions aside, I am going to be on the start line of the London Marathon on Sunday. I will just have to see how I get on & pray that my ankle holds up & I can just get to the end!

Initially I wanted to aim for a sub 5 marathon but this is HIGHLY unlikely now! Doesnt mean I wont try though! I probably shouldnt be starting this race really BUT I feel if I dont give it a go then I wont know if I could have done it or not. I would rather try & have to pull out than not try at all!!!

I am going to see my physio tomorrow & hopefully she will have better news on my injury for me!!!!

Over the next few days I will post a pic of what I am going to be wearing so you can try & spot me on the telly!!!

Speak soon!!
