Someone said to me if you can run 10k you might as well run a half marathon, so I did. It took a week to be able to walk properly. This year my wife said if you can run a half marathon why don't you make yourself useful, run a marathon and whilst you're at it raise some money for the kids school. It wasn't phrased as a question and running kinda escalates quickly.
So, I'm now running the brighton half at the end of Feb and then the brighton marathon on the 2nd April. I will be raising money for Carden primary school PTA to help fund a new ICT suite (computers and that).
ICT is an essential tool to support teaching and learning. It can also help to improve achievement levels, inspire creative thinking and encourage the development of skills that will prove invaluable in the real world.
I'm also doing this because my wife told me to, see first paragraph 😃
