Before I’m 40 bucket list - One of the things on this list is to run a full marathon.Now I’ve done a few half marathon’s in my time, but straight after each one I’ve always thought to myself, “there’s no way I can do another one of those”. However, 2021 has to be the year I finally give it a go! So last year I proceeded to enter into the ballot of the world famous ‘London Marathon’ and had my fingers and toes crossed for a place, unfortunately it wasn’t meant to be. But that’s not going to stop me, so I went for the next best thing, and entered into the Virtual London Marathon instead. This way I can create my own route and more importantly place the finish line at the pub.
The Route - The start line will be my front door in Shepperton, and will take me along the river Thames/Wey Navigation to Byfleet, back up through Addlestone and over Chertsey bridge. Then it’s a long slog to Bushy park in Kingston where I’ll turn back and follow the towpath towards home, finally ending the race at the Red Lion in Shepperton 🍺.
the Charity- I will be running the marathon for an amazing local charity, Surplus to Supper.
Surplus to Supper helps to bridge the gap between food waste and food poverty. They actively source and distribute surplus food to those in need and fundraise for local food banks and other charities.
So if anyone wants to see me suffer, you are more than welcome to join me for parts of the route on foot or bike, or you can just join for a post Marathon beer at the finish line from 2pm (hopefully 😬)
ThanksJames
