Wow. Michelle you a superstar. Thank you so much! Will even let you off the fabreeze in a few weeks  ;D

Thanks also in addition to the people who bought me a beer the other weekend to other superstar APATers who have donated..

Don Roberts
Rob Swindells
Grant Speirs
and Dave Amos

Thank you so much everyone.

There is nothing like the APAT community.

I have a pub list setup and ready for the day. Can"t wait.. just need to decide on what fancy dress now, which will be decided by mini TC on saturday.

I"m alive :) Legs are killing today though.. but got round... here"s gary and I at the start :



I decided against the orange face paint so just went with the red sweaty version after around 1 mile haha. This resulting in one kid thinking I was Mario, and another shouting out "are you supposed to be the Joker". Sigh  ;D

For those who were wondering how long it took us...

Mark Wright 1hr 51 (beating his PB by 8 mins from last year.. well done mate)

Gary Palmer 2hr 21 (who ran the whole thing with his face covered and sunglasses on.. amazing effort mate)

and me.. Phil TC 2hr 53 (managed only two pub stops along the way having a half in the first as it was something like the laughtered lamb and the four blokes in there wondered who the hell this sweaty ooompa lumpa was haha.. then a fantastic pint with around a mile and a half to go).. to be fair my Nike tracking chip says I actually ran 13.48 miles.. but the extra half a mile would have been walking to / around / back from the pubs haha.

Overall a fantastic day, we"ve smashed the target set for the charity and have raised well over £1000 between the 3 of us.

THANK YOU so much for everyone who supported us, Marie Curie are over the moon.

and reserving the best till last "cos I know you"re a big fan...

gjp100:
I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who"s supported us in raising money for Marie Curie, and just generally been supportive with their good wishes.  Never ceases to amaze me how generous people can be.

Thanks to everyone - and a special thanks to Phil_TC who inspired me to get involved with the GNR in the first place! He really is a star! (But the Mario comment made me p*** myself!  ;D)
