Hi all

 

I would just like to say a massive thank you - for your support and sponsorship for the London Marathon April 2010.

 

My challenge was to be able to run it all and finish it, Well I did it!! and I am really really pleased. My official time was 4 hours and 53 mins although the first half I did in my record time of 2 hours and 12 mins! The second half was the real challenge and knee and ankle joints really starting to play up and slowed me down some what.

 

I have managed to get about 9 official photos taken on the day. Although Dad has videoed the whole weekend too to capture the memories of the event!

 

The whole atmosphere and support on the day was amazing with every inch of the route supported by family and friends of all the runners. Mum, Dad and James were waiting at mile 24,  It was so good to see and hear them cheering me on.

 

With your help I have now collected £2,011 on-line on my just giving site as of today 20/7/10! Plus a further £3,500 through the Homebase stores running fundraising weekends to raise money for me. I am so pleased I have reached my target goal of £2,000.

 

I have got the running bug now and am planning on continuing my running, since London I have done the Leeds half marathon and 10K plus I have now registered for the Nottingham Half in Sept 2010 to try to build on my Medal collection ha ha.

 

Once again thank you for all your support! it's very much appreciated.

Love Ella xxx
