So many people to thank today. The charity fund has now gone through the 47, 48 and £49,000 barriers. Thanks to everyone who has donated to the 2 charities today. All donations are greatly appreciated whether they be pocket money or a huge sum such as the one from Chapman Ventilation.
I felt so honoured today when a donation from Sir Bobby Robson's family was made. The following message was left on the justgiving.com site"`keep going son` as he would say. From Lady Elsie, Mark, Paul, Andrew and all at the Foundation.". And keep going I will over the final 220 or so miles to New York.
I was very sorry to hear about the passing of Ian Young's Mam last night. Ian is a great lad, accomplished runner and has ran many a mile with me in training. My thoughts are with Ian and his family. Today's miles are dedicated to the memory of his Mam.
