A Marathon, Some Thoughts and a Fantastic Cause: Within site

Yup, but only 7 days and few hours I will be setting off from Greenwich on the 42kn that will eventually (and I am positively gripping wood right now) end up with the final few punishing yards to the finishing line on the Mall.

The slightly worrying news is that the knee that has been bugging me for nearly 4 weeks does not seem to be getting better and if anything just slightly worse. One of those dull pains that while not impeding running puts that slight doubt in your mind that it may go any minute (still not letting go of that piece of wood).

The better news is that it survived another 5km run today. Just 3 more small runs and come what may I will be there at the start.

The EXCELLENT NEWS is that thanks to the wonderful generosity of many friends and family the funds for Parikrma ( www.parikrmafoundation.org/ ) are now just shy of $1500 and creeping up!!!
