Well, me and Meghan finally completed the Virgin London Marathon 2016. Unfortunately, I ended up hurting my hips at mile 14 which was really annoying, but I powered on through during the immense pain and completed it in 5 hours and 9 minutes. This wasn't the time I wanted at all, but under the circumstances I felt it was a good time. My sister did absolutely amazing and finished in 4 hours and 30 minutes which she was really chuffed with and I am so proud of her!
I had a great support team with me as well, who I saw first at mile 7 where they were wearing 'This Bush Can' t-shirts which certainly put a smile on my face. When the toughest last few miles were approaching towards the end, I was truly thankful and blessed to have them all there on the side lines cheering me on.
I feel so overwhelmed by all of the support from my friends, family and co-workers who helped me reach my target of £1250 for The Docklands Settlements. The charity is so thankful to everyone who raised the money, and it will go towards helping a huge amount of people, so thank you so much again.
I have to say that due to my injury I am definitely not in a rush to run another marathon, but I certainly won't see never!
