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!!!
Running 26 marathons one for each letter of the alphabet is the challenge, in Memory of my brother Ian pictured above. Who died after a three year fight with a brain tumour which is why I am raising money for thebraintumourcharity.org the challenge has been tough with injuries and having children,twin boys born August 2015 it has become an even bigger challenge than I first envisaged.
