Well I started feeling a bit emotional looking at some of the people wearing her t-shirts with all the challenges she achieved. Very impressive indeed, but when you take into account she also had cancer whilst doing them. I dont think you can even describe the courage of her. |

Hi Mar, I dont think I feel as stiff...but still stiff, ha. Yeah it went really well. I did it slower than the last 10k but this had a lot more people taking part which I think slowed me down a little. It was still really fun though and I managed to do it all without stopping :) |

It was actually on Sunday Life yesterday (national tv) with a 10 minute spot focusing on the Tomlinsons mainly. It was also on the local news tonight for 5 mins or so. There were 11,000 runners taking part. I finished around 5,000th. |

I didnt ask for donations for this with me doing the Great North run in just over 3 months. When collecting for that though I will also say I did this one. I am hoping to raise about £250-£300 for GNR. |
