Thanks to everyone for your kind words, as I have said before, I am sure that any of you would do the same if you could. I have raised over £20k now which hopefully will help PCUK and I met so many sons and daughters of sufferers or deceased of this terrible disease also raising money for this great charity by just running, another thing that got me all emotional.

Finally, George , I won't be running to Leicester but will be going for a run first thing on the Sunday no matter what ii pour down my throat as I never miss a chance to run somewhere different, even Leicester!

Hi everyone, not sure if anyone is interested but I managed to sneak a last minute spot in th London marathon on Sunday ( long story but thanks to a good friend). Only downside is that I won't be chipped so you can't follow me and will have to trust I did it (assuming I do). Legs feel good but as I have not fully recovered from 2 weeks ago I will aim for a time between 4-30 and 5-00. It has also given me the chance to rattle the electronic tin with some more clients!

I am under no illusion as to how lucky I am to feel able to do this with my T4 diagnosis however I think it is important to all new dx men to realise that in the early time of finding you have PC the biggest barrier for doing things could be your own attitude.

Whilst writing, I have also been accepted for something mega in 2016, I will reveal all another time.

Kev. You are a brave man running another marathon so soon. In my early days I too ran marathons around about the four hour mark and I know your legs will not have completely recovered yet. But an opportunity like this one could hardly refuse , could one? We are both old and shakey now lol but we both know the magic of finishing a marathon/s My Erwell somewhat faster than myself. Well a lot faster in truth. To do this with your health issue is truly inspiring. Go for it Kev and savour that moment when you cross that line yet again. Cheers Georgina

Thanks for everyone's kind support, this forum is such a feel good place at times. For those who have asked, I don't have a sponsorship page for this as there are plenty iof others who are running on this site who have asked. It has given me an excuse to bash some clients and friends with my old page however!

Thanks again everyone. Kevlaa

Hi All, just got back from the London Marathon, what a day. It didn't rain after all and was probably perfect running conditions. I finished in 4-23 which is 13 minutes faster than I ran in Brighton 2 weeks ago, thanks in no small part to ibuleve, marvellous stuff and my consultant was fine with me using ibuprofen but not orally. That stuff helped my knee have reduced pain.

So that's it now for running, I have a mega event for 2016 already lined up and will probably do a few more marathons along the way as part of the training but for now, a week off.

Thanks as ever for all your support.

Kevlaa
