Cracking performance by Paul Howard in the Milton Keynes half marathon yesterday!

[sarahsch]

Paul completed the Milton Keynes half marathon in sweltering temperatures yesterday, despite being dressed in full wolf costume!

It was a pleasure to cheer Paul on his way around the course. He completed it with a smile on his face throughout, which won him a lot of friends. Cheering him on at the home straights, waving our Lupus UK banners, competitors were asking us how Paul was doing & had he finished!

My husband tells me we cycled the best part of 10 miles yesterday - with the aid of factor 50 clothes, hat, & brolly of course! I wouldn't have believed I was capable of that!

You are a real inspiration Paul & it was a pleasure to meet you.

Hi sarahsch ,

It was so amazing to have you and your family there to support me yesterday. It meant so much! I couldn't believe that you had even made banners with my name on! If I wasn't so dehydrated by the end then I could have cried. It was so nice to meet you - I'm just sorry that I was so sweaty and smelly so I couldn't give you a hug.

Hi Melba1 ,

It was certainly the most challenging half marathon I have done so far. The heat made it very difficult.

Thank you so much for your kind offer to sponsor me. The link is justgiving.com/fundraising/...
