Story
Thank you to everyone that has sponsored me. I completed the Marathon in a time of 4:17:43 which I am pretty pleased with - of course now I have to do another one to get that elusive sub-4 hour time! Sunday was really, really hot and the sun took its toll although I did have enough at the end for a sprint finish with my fastest mile of the 26.2 being my last.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am running the Edinburgh Marathon on 23rd May 2010. As lots of people have been asking who I am running for, I thought I had better offer myself up for sponsorship! There are so many worthy charities to choose from but I have decided to run for Children's Burns Foundation. I have a scar on my arm which even after 40 years I hate and feel very self conscious about so rarely wear short sleeves and still inwardly cringe when people ask what happened. How other children with far worse scars cope I do not know, but any charity such as Children's Burns Foundation that can help deserves any sponsorship you can give.
