So tonight I ran my first 7 miles and i can't tell you how fantastic i feel for this achievement! I'm working towards a half marathon for summer next year. A close friend of mine has just been diagnosed with cancer and I'd love to raise some money for cancer research.

That’s amazing. Well done. (I had to calculate that you did 11.26km - awesome.)

Well done, there is a marathon forum here too which can give support and advice to those running more than 10k. They are just as friendly as this one.
