Story

Hi .....thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

On Sunday 7th September I will be attempting to run 26.4 miles in the Wolverhampton Marathon (yes.. surprisingly, they do have a marathon there!) in a bid to a) satisfy another aspect of my midlife crisis & b) to raise money for Cancer Research UK.

My training program has been intense (see picture to the left!) and after many months of pounding the pavements through the streets of Bartley Green, Harborne, Sutton Coldfield  (plus some other places I got lost in and really didn't have a clue where the hell I was!) the big day has now very quickly arrived on my doorstep. 

To actually complete a marathon is quite an achievement but on top of that I would also like to try and raise some money for Cancer Research UK.  Not only is this a worth while charity to donate to but it will also give me a bigger incentive to dig in deep and to reach that finishing line in a respectable time*, especially if I hit "the wall" just after passing the start line!

* Note: My version of a respectable time may differ from yours!

Thanks for your support!
