What's this blog all about?

You may already know that I'm a keen road runner, and that I ran the Flora London Marathon in 2007 and raised £3300 for Macmillan Cancer Care... this year decided to try once again to get a place in the Flora London Marathon.

In late November I was stunned to receive notification that I had been accepted for a ballot place, a 2008 London Marathon place was now assured.

I created this blog just to keep a record of important (and not so important) events along the way!

Yeah!! Marathon!

And then in late November I could've told you all about seeing a thin, polythene covered envelope lying ominously on my kitchen table..

You see I always bequeath my entry fee and in return, should I fail to get in, there's always a gift from the London Marathon organisers... This gift always comes in a much larger package... So a thin polythene package can only mean one thing...

I forgot to bequeath me fee...?

NO!! I got in again!! The odds against getting in two years on the trot must be quite high, I wish I'd put a bet on now with the bookies!

If I had done this is in November I would then have gone off to think about which charity to represent...
