Official ballot entered

So yesterday I entered the official ballot. Unfortunately they don’t tell you till October if you have a place or not. Only 120,000 people can enter the ballot but apparently the chances of you getting a place a less than 10%.

Exactly - One year to go

It is time to revive my running Blog ...

In exactly one year 9.45 am on Sunday 22 April 2011 I want to be starting the London Marathon. Clearly I don't have a place yet, nor do I know how I will get one - but where there is a will there is way.

Broadly as part of the build up, I want to do 10km in June / July. A half in the autumn and then build up for the big one.

So I haven't really done any exercise since Christmas and now I need to start upping my game.

This morning, I therefore went for a quite early morning run (especially for a bank holiday). Details are here : http://rnkpr.com/aji7jg

I intend to use this blog to keep you posted of how I am doing and also as a journal of my year to get there.
