Hi to All

This is the final update before embarking on the Marathon this Sunday – 26.2 miles – one is getting nervous.  There are three points to let you in on:

Firstly. I have been training regularly and running 15 miles once a week for about 1.5 months.  On Sunday past I thought I would try it during the heat wave – boy was that murder!!!!  My time dropped like a bomb and I lost 4 – 5lbs of weight.  Lesson learned – if it is hot on Sunday go and play a round of golf instead.

Secondly, through the fantastic generosity of many almost £4,000.00 has been raised thus far.  If I remember correctly some ridiculous runner agreed to pay 10% of monies raised – namely me.  It will be safe to say that I will not be buying the rounds down at the pub for some time........

Finally, if you still wish to donate to a jolly good cause, then please click on the 'sponsor me now' button above.

Oh yes, wish me luck.  All mickey taking emails are welcome, as well.

Many thanks to every one of you for your curiousity, generosity and kind support.

James
