The last week has been a blur! I had a LOT of work to do, and final marathon training to complete, as well as getting to London. Luckily everything fell into place on Friday, at about 2pm ... hours before I jumped on a train. One day I'll get organised.

So, the things I didn't do were:

• encourage everyone to sponsor me for running the London Marathon

  -- online sponsor form is here
• tell everyone that it is my birthday on Tuesday (I'll be 20, errr, 30), so I'm planning to have a bit of a get-together at Inn The Park from 5.30pm on Tuesday 25th April (tomorrow)
• make everyone jealous by letting you know I'm off for a mystery week's holiday

Yesterday's London Marathon was great, although I missed my target of 3h 30m with a time of 3h 44m. Whilst I'm happy with the time, knocking 14+ minutes off would have made me a lot happier and I was a 42 minutes faster than last year. Plans for the next race are already underway; a sub-3hour marathon will be mine! I must say special thanks to my parents, Hazel, Allan and Nat for coming along and cheering my on.
