This was the final event of my 10 marathon challenge but due to a stomach virus I lost over a stone in weight in 3 days. This was not ideal preparation and i was forced to withdraw after taking medical advice.
I am very disappointed with this and it has enhanced my belief that those that are fighting cancer everyday are truely inspiring people.
I felt that i had let this great charity down so i booked the next possible marathon Rutland Water on the 7th November. I completed the course in under 4 hours 30 minutes and have fulfilled my personal obligation to run/complete 10 marathons (@ 26.2 miles each) in 2010.
I will remain a strong supported of Macmillan and will check this site in the future to see if there are any projects/ideas that i can involve myself in to aid Macmillan and those that use the services they offer.
Best wishes to all
