Hi All, I am about to run this for the second time in the hope of improving on my 2005 performance. Lots of training and preparation still to do but going OK. I am raising money for my local hospice "Farleigh Hospice", Chelmsford, which provides care for patients with life limiting disease in Mid Essex. I have used Virgin Giving before and have found that their Not For Profit ethos really appeals to donors.
Happy to talk about this event endlessly if any is interested,
Good Training,

DK

Keep fit, live long and die quickly

Hi,i have often thought about doing this run but my family think i'm mad to even considerate it. Did you have the same problem when you decided to go ahead with it? I take it you are a keen runner and you look very physically fit, and you say that you are doing alot of training, what sort of physical status would you say you need to be in before even thinking about putting in the paperwork?

I'm looking at doing this in 2015. Any advice, especially from a fellow member of the RAMC would be greatly appreciated.
