Hi everyone,
I can’t believe it was a week ago I finished the marathon now - it’s gone scarily quickly! I think apart from obviously finishing, the thing I’m most proud about is that I’m now able to walk up and down stairs again. My family have been treated to some amusing scenes of my varying [...]

Hi there,

Hi there, Almost a week has passed since I ran in the London Marathon. I thought I’d give you a little taster of what last weekend was like! We arrived in London on Saturday afternoon (Mum, Dad, Frances and me), had a relaxed afternoon and had supper with cousins in the evening. I have to say, [...]

Hi there, Will give more details in the morning, but just to say I finished today in 4 hours 11:08. A bit slower than my goal, but I’m still really pleased. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced more pain than in the last 10 miles of the race!! My second half was nearly 50 minutes slower [...]

Hi everybody, It has been a really positive week, and all the press attention has given me some great momentum going into Sunday’s marathon. One final point on that, I am being interviewed by Jonathan Edwards on Sunday morning before the race starts. I believe the interview will be broadcast on BBC1 from 8.30am onwards, when the BBC’s [...]

Hit the massive £8000 mark today! Thank you to all those who have sponsored me. Over the next few days I am going to list the names of those who have been kind enough to donate under the “Sponsorship” section. Do check out the “Gallery” section this week - I hope to finally get some [...]

Hi there, Apologies for the recent lack of posts - I have been insanely busy recently! It is a scary thought that the Marathon is just 9 days away now, although a part of me wants the race to just come - the waiting around is getting my nerves jangling already. I have eased off heavily [...]

Hi there, ran in the Hastings half marathon today, so I thought I’d take you through it all mile by mile (with a few miles missing - I did actually run them by the way!):5.00 - Alarm goes off. Reject it and go back to sleep - can’t be bothered to get up and watch [...]
