<p>Thank you&nbsp;for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I have only dabbled in running before when my friend asked&nbsp;if I fancied running the London Marathon.&nbsp;Visions of previous years spent in front of the television watching thousands of people push themselves to the limit sprung to mind -&nbsp;I eagerly accepted!</p> <p>I joined a gym, bought a book&nbsp;and training began! Completing my first 10k in October and every 'mile' stone since has been a journey, to point that I even whooped last Sunday at the end of my longest run yet, to the amusement of passers-by...&nbsp;</p> <p>Training for the marathon has been a test of both&nbsp;physical and mental strength and I&nbsp;am perversely enjoying every minute!!</p> <p>Your&nbsp;donation&nbsp;is a huge&nbsp;motivator and is greatly received by Wellchild. Thank you!</p>
