<p class="iphone-update">Updated on Apr 18th 2012 at 5:58 PM from the JustGiving API</p> <p>One down, one to go! Brighton marathon complete in 3:51:09. Full race report <a href="http://bit.ly/IkKvYl">HERE</a>.</p> <p>For the low down on the whys and what fors, check out <a href="http://branching-dialogue.com/2012/02/23/on-a-serious-note-freedom-from-torture-guest-blog/">my guestblog for Freedom from Torture</a>. And thanks for stopping by :)</p> <p>>>>></p> <p>Even though in this age multi-day marathoning is becoming increasingly common, I can assure you, running a marathon will never be an easy task for me. And running two marathons in two weeks is borderline insane. But I think I can do it, with enough training and the right mindset. More importantly, I think I can use the achievement to raise funds for a thoroughly deserving charity, <a href="http://www.freedomfromtorture.org/">Freedom From Torture</a> and one which, for personal reasons, is close to my heart.</p> <p>So dig deep and I promise that, barring severe injury, in April 2012, I will complete the <a href="http://brightonmarathon.co.uk/">Brighton Marathon</a> and the <a href="http://www.greatermanchestermarathon.com/">Greater Manchester Marathon</a>. I'm not promising any world records or even personal bests, but I am promising completion. Whatever it takes.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Vee</p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dates:</span></strong></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Brighton Marathon</strong>. 15th April, 2012.</p> <p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Greater Manchester Marathon</strong>.
