Good luck Kevin, I know from experience how hard marathons can be let alone doing one with the treatment etc you're having.

You're a star

Good luck Kevin!

I was never a runner ( bad knees ) but was a keen amateur road cyclist up until a few years ago.... so I have some appreciation of just how hard this will be for you especially whist still undergoing chemo!

Hope the air pollution levels predicted for today will have dispersed by Sunday..

Best Wishes

Kevin's just started.  

 At least he made it to the start line!  I know that's what he was concerned about, being well enough to compete.

Well done Kev.

I think he was hoping for 9 minute miles. He managed that for his first mile. Keep going mate

Hi,

Getting a bit concerned.  Either his tracking isn't working or he may be walking.

Tracking is showing he's not passed the 10k point yet.  Just hope he's ok.

Hi ,

That's great news   Thanks Arthur.  Such a relief.  Must have been technical issues with the 10k monitor. 

 Traveling to Southampton so internet a bit hit or miss.

Keep going Kev.

Isn't this tracking tool fantastic! When I do the GNR later this year, you will all be able to see when I stop for a cigarette break :-0
