So I had a moment of boredom where i thought to myself, I want to do something big and out of the ordinary.

I may be aiming stupidly high for what i am currently capable of doing as i am an incapable runner, I have not ran for years, to top it off i certainly am not a gracious runner…. It’s not going to be pretty.

I am on the other hand taking this very seriously. I have an intense training programme which i intend on following which i have already started and running right up to near the marathon in Edinburgh.

Unfortunately some of my previous life style choices will make this a massive task for myself, I gave up smoking recently to remain permanent and my lack of exercise previously doesn't help. 

The charity i am running for is one i believe to be a very important support to people suffering from Chrons or Colitis disease. Many people are unaware of the these diseases unless you know someone who has Chrons or Colitis or suffer from it yourself. It is incurable and can be a very aggressive disease which I have experienced, and this charity helps those people and their families cope with their day to day lives.

This is their website if you want to know more of the great things they do: http://www.nacc.org.uk/content/home.asp#top

Luckily i have found some other people who are as crazy as myself to do this with me, including a wonderful friend Heather who is also raising money for Chrons and Colitis UK.

I don't intend on walking the marathon and I'd like to come out of it with a good time.

I would really appreciate the support if you could help me raise the £500 I need to enter and make this possible,

Thank-you all,

Oh dear..... god help me.
