I bloody did it!!!
Nov1720102 p.m.
Took me 3 years but I have finally run a marathon!!
Injuries stopped me in my tracks for two consecutive London Marathons but this year was my year and on November 7th - I crossed the line in New York a very happy bunny!!
Took me 5:58:23 but I beat Gebrselassie on my first outing so that's not bad!
The whole day was amazing and the crowd support was incredible.
Managed to raise £2000 for our local hospice which is great.
Not sure what to do next - potentially have a bond place for London 2011 but not sure if I can raise another £2000 so close to New York.
Need some fundraising suggestions ie events that could make this happen for me.....
Anyway, I'm off to polish my medal again!!

Johnf 'Well done Terry. Great run and to leave Haile training in the dust will always give you something to talk about. Did I tell you I did the same thing in 2007?' added 17th Nov 2010
