UPDATE - I completed the course in 1:54:51 - thanks to everyone who has sponsored me!!!
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. As many of you are aware, I am a 41 year old sales manager with all the athletic inclination of the sloth that I so closely resemble. So what better way could there be of supporting the National Star Foundation than to participate in the Cheltenham half marathon on 15th September. Being naturally optimistic I am aiming to complete the course in under 2 hours, but I would really appreciate your sponsorship for this excellent cause whatever my actual time might be.
