So this is it, the big 40...

24 more years than I was told I'd live, 38 years more years than my parents were told I'd live...

But I'm nothing if I'm not stubborn.

I was born with Fallots Tetralogy- all the gubbins is here:

I've done half marathons, I've done a full one - and I'll be doing both again... I've had my legs waxed and stood on a plinth in Trafalgar Square...

So what "mid-life" crisis am I going to have?  Partly more of the same - more marathons and halves, probably another attempt to learn to swim... And I'll be combining my love of hills with my plodding of long distances...

However, I am open to suggestions, and for a reasonable donation will do most things (see my facebook pictures of me as Snow White for reference!).

So feel free to make me a challenge, and see if I'll accept - I self fund all of my events, so please be gentle to my wallet!
