Uh ... Upping the ante

In August I ran 18.5 miles to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society.  That was a huge achievement for me being the furthest I'd ever run.  It also led to my fastest half marathon time - I knocked 11 minutes of my my personal best time!

Then an email came round at the day job offering places for the Brighton Marathon.

So, her was another opportunity to make a big difference for a cause that is very dear to my heart … I appear to have signed up for it!  I am every but as nervous as I was for my first half marathon way back in 2005.

I shall at last be able to answer the question "How would it feel to run a marathon?"
