Everything still appears to be going to plan which is a bit scary! All accommodation now booked for the trip and training going well. The alarm clock is getting used every Sunday morning for the long runs but as there's quite a few others from Bournemouth Joggers training for the London marathon or the Mad March Hare (20 mile road race this coming Sunday) or the Grizzly (mud, water, mud, hills and more mud 20ish miler cross-country race in 2 weeks time!) it's been great to have quite a bit of company and the miles seem to go past quite easily. So far the weather for the long runs has been fantastic.
Fundraising is also coming along nicely....current tally is £457 for Paul with £200 online donations and £289 offline for Cancer Research making a total to date of £946. There are also plans for a fundraising event the weekend before I leave which is exciting
