About One foot after the other...
...it is a simple mantra but if I can keep it going for 4 1/2 hours it should get me home.
Six years ago I ran the London Marathon. That is pretty much sufficiently long ago to forget about the pain and hardship and to put on a stone and a half. Add in an Achilles rupture 18 months ago the arrival of two wonderful daughters, less and less exercise and a likening for crisps and you can see that I have put in the best preparation over those six years to tackle another 26 miles 385 yards.
I can feel the pain already.
I'm running for Pancreatic Cancer UK, following my father's diagnosis and subsequent treatment and will be raising funds along the way.
Half Marathon PB : 1hr 54mins 20secs (see below)
