Hi all!
Apologies for no recent updates; I've been away for military duties.
Well, it's nearly 5am here in England as I get up to eat breakfast, get ready, and make my way towards London.
As I type this, I'm at nearly Ł1800 for Children with Cancer. I just wanted to say thanks again for your tremendous support again this year!
If you're bored today, you can track me via the website.

Done!
Hi all!
On the way home now. Not a great race time today, but I'll take it!
Cool, damp, and humid made it a challenge. Those I know those I know who have fought or are fighting cancer kept me taking every step.
Will post pics later!
THANKS again for your support.

28 April - Update
Hi Everyone,
Now that I'm in recovery mode and thinking slightly more clearly...
I want to say thank you to all of those who helped me EXCEED my goal! Ł1,800.76 is my current total fundraising out of my Ł1,500 goal!
Before my sister and I parted ways at Kings Cross:
Big Bird "chasing" me along the Embankment:
Crossed the Finish Line!
Happy to be done! My sister took this as I came out of the Horse Guards Parade.
Thank you again!

And for those who'd like a bit of amusement...
My sister and I did not think there were as many costumed runners this year, but we did see many of these.
Apparently I was not far behind the green telephone for much of the race - it's how she knew I'd eventually get to her.
