Well thats it. Ive been accepted for a place in the Asthma Uk running team for the Virgin London marathon. The intial excitement of being able to finally acheive one of my dreams has eased and the realisation of what I have taken on is setting in. Words such as " Oh Crap" spring to mind.
Its going to be a long journey getting my training in but I cant wait. This blog is about my training and the trial and tribulations I will be facing. I will also be hoping to put down some kit reviews. Pass on any butrition advice I get and advertise my fundraising.
Obviously Iwill appreciate any posts people can place on here. Wether from fellow runners, supporters or asthma sufferers. Asthmatics suffer in silence mostly and would be great to create a forum where we can all talk. Running changed my asthma in to something I could manage. I went from being so skinny I was bullied immensly to having a good job in the police, a wonderful partner 2 kids and my health. Im lucky but the 5.4 million peple in this country who have asthma sometimes aren't as lucky.
Anyway time to go eat after my run this morning. 5 miles on a drissly Sunday morning. Perfect! I hope you enjoy this page as it grows and please remember that any donations can be logged at
