Great North Run update

I now have my MS Society shirt and run number!

I've managed the distance (just) and now that I'm training with Tim, Iain & Ols from the lab I should be on target to finish the run without being overtaken by too many people in full fancy dress :)

It's getting very real now.

You can support the MS Society by sponsoring my run here :-

All donations will be very much appreciated by myself and everyone who benefits from the fantastic work the MS Society do.

I'll update more before the day and also with some pictures from the day itself.

Great North Run

I was talked into taking on the Great North Run by Tim Doswell

Tim has recently been on a huge health kick which saw him complete a Triathlon earlier this year. Not happy with that achievement he decided to sign up for the Great North Run immediately after, then persuaded me to do the same thing.

I'll be honest, when Tim suggested it I thought there was no way I could possibly run a half marathon but after training with Tim for the last 4 weeks there's a good chance we'll both be able to cross the finish line in under 2 hours.

I've finally managed the distance along with Tim, you can follow my training progress here
