UPDATE: I just finished the Thame Triathlon in 1hr 17 min which was a decent result...the good news is that the running went well and I'm building my mileage up in preparation for the Robin Hood Marathon in Sept. Thanks for your patience...we'll get there!

As many of you know I picked up a back injury in mid-March and haven't been able to run any distance since, so with much regret I cannot take part in the Marathon on May 8th. To say I'm gutted is an understatement, given all the generous donations I've received.

The good news is I've now committed to do the Thame Triathlon in July and the Robin Hood Marathon in September; so I'm back to training if not running.

Thanks for all your support, and your generous donations Giving Africa is doing some great work and they really can use the money to great effect.
