running and all that...

Wow, I've just spoken to an excellent locally based charity who have offered me the opportunity to run the London Marathon in April 2008 for them.

I have been training for the marathon for the last two months without any confirmation of a place - and now I have one! The charity is WheelPower - www.wheelpower.org.uk/ - this is an excellent charity for me as it combines two things - 1 - it's local and so I can see the benefit I bring and 2 - it's a charity that really benefits people in need of help - in this case those people who are disabled due to an accident or illness.

Now I just need to raise loads of money and get my training up to speed so I can achieve a brilliant time - my aim is to run it in 3 hours and 30 minutes! watch this space as the months continue....
