18 October 2006 - Running with a broken leg?

As an example of how determined you have to be in competitive running, I sent Paul this link to an item about a boy who completed the last four miles of an orienteering event with a broken leg:

Having said that.. In the event that I suffer any kind of fracture during the marathon I will of course expected to be air-lifted off the Downs :)

Beachy Head Marathon - 28 October 2006.

I've never run more than a half marathon in the past (and that was 20 years ago). A couple of months ago though I decided to try and find a challenge to improve my speed for my favourite sport of Orienteering. The Beachy Head marathon looked like an ideal candidate. Quite a tough marathon to take on - but hey it just means that there's less pressure. It's also a great opportunity to raise some sponsorship for a good cause, and I have chosen Off The Fence as my charity.
