Story

My challenge:

I aim to:

a) Run the London Marathon in under three hours on April 22 (Update: Did it in 3:10)

b) Run the Manchester Marathon in under three-and-a-half hours a week later  (Update: Did it in 3:08. Therefore the aggregate times for the marathons means I achieved success. Kind of)

c) Run 184 miles along the River Thames over four days in early June - an average of 46 miles per day (Update: Start from the source of the Thames on Saturday 2nd June)

I'm doing this in aid of Team PB (details below) and may very well never run again once all this is over.

About Team PB:

The Prostate Cancer Charity and Breast Cancer Care are excited to have been chosen as the joint official charities for the 2012 Virgin London Marathon.  Together we are TeamPB and our goal is to raise more than £1 million.

Prostate and breast cancer are the most common cancers in men and women in the UK. So the chances are you know someone who’s been affected by these life-threatening diseases. You may also know about the emotional upheaval a diagnosis brings to every family affected, the debilitating long-term side effects of treatment and living with a constant fear about the cancer returning. The expert information and support from The Prostate Cancer Charity and Breast Cancer Care is there from day one.

Help us continue to be there for everyone who needs us.

The Prostate Cancer Charity and Breast Cancer Care have teamed up joint official charities for the 2012 Virgin London Marathon. Together we are TeamPB! Our goal is to recruit our biggest team to date and to raise £1 million to help change the lives of those affected by prostate and breast cancer. Prostate cancer and breast cancer are the most common cancers in men and women respectively in the UK today. This year 37,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer and 50,000 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Combined, more than 750,000 people are living with these two cancers in the UK right now. By running together we can raise more awareness and more money to support the more than 750,000 people living with these two cancers in the UK right now. Donations and Gift Aid made to the Team PB JustGiving pages will be split 50/50 between both charities.
