It has been a while since I posted on here but I thought I would share this wonderful update.
At the weekend, I completed the London marathon!!!! It was absolutely incredible. I'm still elated now from the experience.
I ran the marathon in support of a type 1 diabetes charity, prompted by my brothers diagnosis last year and the loss of my Grandad some time ago with it. As a collective group of runners for the charity, we managed to raise £375,000 (and still rising)! This is an awesome achievement. 👌
I started running with the C25K app only 3 years ago, then I progressed to 10k with this forum. Last year I completed my first half marathon event and I'm so pleased I can now say I've ran a marathon.... and one of the world majors at that!
I hope you all take inspiration from this.. anybody thinking about entering the ballot, in the words of Nike..... 'just do it'!!! 😁
Can I please have my marathon badge now??? 😅

Congratulations to you Skiddle1 on completing the London Marathon, to get your marathon badge go to the FUN BEYOND 10K and Race Support forum and tell the administrators that you have ran the London Marathon
Congratulations! You are incredible, and what a great cause to run for! I thought you were joking about a marathon badge but I see from the replies that it is real! 😀 "wear" it with pride. 🏅
Well done to you ! Hopefully you have popped across the Fun Beyond, and claimed your badge now... but this post, I hope, will inspire all our new runners!
Well done, you're inspiring all of us who never thought we would even finish C25K! Such an inspiration, I hope your high keeps you going for a few more days! 🙂🙂
