I completed the 10k on Sunday in 1hr 28 minutes, taking 5 minutes off my time from last year. In doing so I have raised £350 for Kidney Wales, smashing my original target of £250.

Thanks to your support, I was one of the top 20 fundraisers for the charity out of the 180 people who were running on the charities behalf this year.

All in all the runners have raised in the region of £27000 this year for this very worthy charity.

If you would like to contribute, there is still time and for those of you that already have-Thank you very much indeed.
