<p>Despite serious injury requiring medical attention (3 physiotherapy sessions and more required this week), some moaning (from Emily) and if we're honest, a general lack of fitness (natural athletes, we are not) we completed the Great South Run on Sunday in a time of 1hr 58mins. We thought we'd let the Kenyans and the Ethiopians win for a change.</p>
<p>Why are we sending you the email after the event? Well, we thought we'd wait until we'd completed it such was our belief in our running abilities.</p>
<p>We were running for a charity called Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research which is the only UK charity solely dedicated to research into blood cancers, including leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma. Their life-saving research focusses on finding causes, improving diagnosis and treatments, and running ground-breaking clinical trials for all blood cancer patients. Leukaemia and lymphoma are illnesses that have affected people we know so this is a charity that we are proud to support.</p>
<p>Please help us raise as much money as possible by sponsoring us a lot...or a little. We're not fussy (feel free to insert your own sarcastic comment here).</p>
<p>Thank you!!!!!!</p>
