Hi,

Just wanted to say that I'm both really proud and nervous as my dh is running for the 1st time.

He has trained so hard and I really admire what he's doing - he's running for Christian Aid.

We live about 2 miles from the finish and I'm going to walk along on Sunday morning to try and see him amongst the thousands.

Just wanted to wish any other runners Good Luck and hope the weather is good for you

:woohoo: :yay: :woohoo: :yay:

Thank you for all your good luck wishes:goodvibes

I've just got back from taking him to the metro station - its up to him now.

He reckons realistically he will finish 2h 15 mins anything better will be a plus

Good luck everyone:thumbsup2 :yay: :yay: :yay: :yay:

Hi

The weather isn't too bad actually - cold, but sunny and most importantly dry -

I am sitting watching the tv and I'm crying my eyes out - I get soooooo emotional

Not long now till they start:thumbsup2

Hi

He's back :cool1:

He did 2hrs 20 mins :cool1: I'm really proud

Actually he's in the bath now - he feels fine but we've just discovered a huge blister on his second toe


Whats funny is he says he'd gone 200 m past the start - saw a portaloo and had to stop - that was the only time he did stop -

Thanks for you support

:cool1:
