Today I've been thinking about this simple phrase and wondering what it means for the next 5 and a half months. Yesterday I received the fantastic news, that HOPEHIV had accepted my application to run the 2011 London Marathon and to raise funds for them. So theres obviously a lot of excitement on my behalf, yet also I'm quite aware of the dedication and commitment this challenge is going to be. I want to not simply finish the marathon, but enjoy it and run well.
I've set my training start date to Monday, between now and then I need to sort out my training plan, have an idea of the time I am looking to run the race in, sort kit and gear out, and think about the long road to raising sponsorship money. Quite a challenge, but I have been giving the opportunity to push my body's limits and raise money for a great charity, so this is definitely a challenge worth doing!
