Hello all, thank you for your kind donations via this page and the Virgin Money page. I completed the run in 1hr and 52 mins. As I was running it was too hot, it was as though Eve had made the sun shine...I muttered to myself 'come on Eve, sort the weather out' next minute it started raining, really bizarre! Lovely cool rain that got me through the last 4 miles. I am sure it was Eve sorting the weather out on demand!! I really enjoyed it and if I can get in the Marathon then I'll do it for the Meningitis Trust for Eve again.

Good luck for the run on sunday xxx

Went out on Sunday and did a 12 mile run so all being well should managed 13...really enjoyed it actually, took a different route around Scotton and Scriven which was lovely. Nice breezy day...looking forward to the day now. Drumming up the sponsorship at work don't think I'll make a fortune but I'll certainly pester everyone I know.

Hello, please note you can also donate via http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/SamYoung

Have been out plenty of times running to build back up to the miles needed...got a while to go yet so will ramp up the fundraising over the next few months. I've asked work if they will sponsor me and invite donations from staff via our company intranet and magazine.

Miss you eve, one of my best memories of you is our holiday we had 10 years ago to gran canaria. We all 4 had such a great time.
