Need a hug

Sad news, sorry to hear it :(

I know no words will make it better, or take away the pain but he was clearly well loved, and he would have known that. To pass on peacefully at home in the arms of a loved one is probably the greatest kindness any of us could hope for.

For the people that donated thank you. I more then met my donation target and have still got money coming in.
What a tough day had a cold (possibly chest infection) for the weeks leading up to it which hampered my training. It stopped me running for 3 weeks. Woke up on Sunday feeling less snotty and quite fresh.
What an amazing atmosphere, the people of the north east are the best just shouting your name and handing out jelly babies , ice pops, oranges, water , beer :) and to see the red arrows fly over just after Id come out of a under pass was awesome.
I felt of up until mile 6 then I could feel the energy going but kept running until mile 11 when the cramp kicked in - a few pats on the pack from fellow runners got me to the coast road, again where the support was like nothing I'd ever seen. It was there where both legs cramped and my foot so the last 800m looked like a sketch from Monty python.
I did it in 2:40 was hoping for 2:30 on the day with the lack of prep but the cramp took care of that.
