Well, I've started my training for the Brighton Marathon. I do have kind of a head start in that I'm still pretty fit from he summer run from Clevedon to Filton and my PB at the Bristol Half Marathon. Having said that, I'm starting with a distance of 7.5 miles - that's the best I could do last Saturday!
There is just about enough time to train and be fit enough to complete the marathon. I will say that I'm dreading it! I love running, but two hours is currently the upper limit of "comfort", mentally, a marathon is quite a different affair: it's going to be around four hours.
Again, I'm taking advantage of Society Generale's generous contribution that will match donations made in support of my fund raising by up to £500. I've done a separate Just Giving page (http://www.justgiving.com/AndySkingsley), as it'll make getting the donation from Soc Gen easier.
