Not really sure what to write for this weeks post. I am really glad that I have got over that Wall I ran head long into last week and I have been really pleased with how solid, if not spectacular this week has been. Yes I have had to run in a bit of snow and rain, I do like running in the rain though and I have passed 600km but it has been another week were I have steadily got on with what I have had to do with nothing really noteworthy happening. So what I have decided to do is give you the bare bone facts
Total completed 613km
Total remaining 2387km
Total raised £1335
There you go, and use this as an opportunity to just say a big thank you to some people who have really helped me so far through this challenge. So in no particular order and if I have missed anyone I am sorry but this 3 months has been somewhat of a blur:

Brendon – I have followed yr progress avidly for the last 3 months even if I haven’t commented on every post. Max respect for what you are doing. Keep up the great work. I like running in the rain too. I thought I was weird, but I am obviously not alone!!
Cheers mate very much appreciated, However much I like running in the rain though I wish spring would hurry up horrible run in the snow this morning 😦
Keep up the amazing work! I keep up with what you do via running bug. You certainly have some amazing support behind you as well which must be a good motivator.
Thanks and yeah all the bugs give me a massive boost
