Next Marathon on 2nd October 2011

Above is my new card that I have had printed, to hand out to people when I get chatting to them about my fundraising.

My next marathon is M for Mablethorpe which is on the coast near Lincoln on the 2nd Oct, I am using the weekend as my stag do as well. It is going to be hard especially as I am doing a half distance triathlon the weekend before.

Life is very full at the moment, with lots of events coming up, an essay to complete, placement to start in September and our wedding on the 19th November. People think I am mad doing a marathon on my stag do!!!

Lots going on 02/08/11

I am currently in training for my first half distance triathlon, in the new forest on 25th September 2011, distances are 1.9 Kilometer swim (1 1/4 mile) 56 mile bike and a half marathon (13.1 mile) run. I did my fastest time for some time in a 10k recently 41:50, I am swimming regularly, spinning regularly, I cycled 50 miles on the weekend and  am attending running club. I have a half marathon, and a Olympic distance triathlon coming up, so lots of training. I have also got to start thinking which marathons I will do next year.

While cycling LEJOG I asked Jo to marry me and she said YES!!! and we have decided to marry in November 2011, so we have a marriage to arrange and of course hen & stag parties.

It is also looking likely that we will have to move out of Bristol :-(, due to work commitments. I currently have essays to complete for my university course :-(.

I also received a call from the Olympic authority saying I had been nominated to carry the Olympic torch through Bristol, I was nominated by a local councilor who saw my article in the  Bristol evening post about my A-Z in marathons :-) I will be informed at a later date if I have been successful.

I think that covers it all OH it is of course AFC Wimbledon first league 2 match on Sat 4th August against Bristol Rovers, so I will be traveling to Kingsmeadow for that match,COME ON YOU DONS!!!
