The 2009 London Marathon is now under 3 months away and I am beginning to feel the fear of my ability to be able to run 26.2 miles by then without being carted off the marathon course in a state of undignified exhaustion!!  I have started my training programme, so it's meals of pasta, swapping beer for lucozade and running every day from here on in - woo hoo!

WellChild has been instrumental in saving the lives of thousands of sick children whilst providing the support their families need through WellChild children's nurses helping  terminally and critically  ill children living at home, through the charity's helpline and through research.   Please donate as little or as much as you can to help WellChild. Every penny is of value to the charity and to me,  it will help inspire me to leave my duvet on the cold mornings ahead to hit the streets (running!) and  to focus on the gain rather than the blisters.  I will let you know how I do on the big day itself!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page, Charlotte x
