3 hours, 30 minutes and 22 seconds!

Thanks SO much to everyone who has been such a fantastic support over the last two and a half months.  It's been a long old haul - with a shoulder sprain, duffed up knees, a tummy bug last week and five stiches above my elbow on Sunday!  Thank God it's over!  It was amazing to run with the support of so many good friends, family and colleagues - and prizes to Dave Smith, Tom Nicholson and Alex D-R and Clare for being spotted by me on the sidelines at some crucial points - just what was needed!!  Honourable mention to Willard Foxton, Izzy Ward, Alison Jenson and Fiona Canby who shouted their hearts out when I was too knackered to be able to realise! 

Welcome to my site if you have come to join that group.  I hope you can dig deep for my charity, the University of Bristol Cancer Research Marathon Fund.  They do an immensely valuable job researching different areas of the disease at all stages of treatment and care.  Your contribution will be hugely appreciated and important in enlarging the scale and volume of their projects.  Please give generously.

If you haven't used justgiving before, it's simple, fast and totally secure. It is a very efficient way to sponsor me: University of Bristol Cancer Research Marathon Fund will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

All the best and don't forget that the site is still very much open for donations!!

Many thanks for your support,

Francis
