I ran the London Marathon!!!
I’m actually starting to bore myself now! I’ve emailed all my friends (and even people that aren’t my friends!), I’ve sent emails out to people registered at my business website (www.beingamillionaire.com by the way!), I’ve told the same stories to so many people that I’m sure my other half and the kids are getting really tired of it now but I don’t care. I think it was a fantastic achievement and I’m going to carry on blowing my own trumpet!
It was absolutely one of the best and worst things I have ever done, in fact it was very similar to giving birth!
You’ve had nine months of thinking about it, you’re full of excitement and anticipation wondering what it’s going to be like, it starts off OK, then it gets harder, the pain kicks in and you’re feeling exhausted, five hours later you’re wondering how much more you can stand…’I can’t do this!’ you shout, ‘Yes you can’ shout back your supporters, you can tell your nearly at the end and then whoosh one last push and you’re over the finish line vowing never to do it again!!!
On a more serious note, I have so far managed to raise over £2000 for Macmillan Cancer Support. And that, above all else, is something I am incredibly proud of.
Thanks to all who supported me and sponsored me…I’m off to give myself another pat on the back!
Hey There,
Great blog and I just ordered some of your million pound notes!
Great that you did the marathon and for the cause, my sister passed away from cancer last august and so I’m thinking when I do run it I’m going to raise money for a variety of charities!
This is the fourth year I’ve entered now so with a bit of luck I’ll get my ballot place either next year or 2011!!
All the best,
Amit! x
Hi Amit
Thanks for you comment and your order!
So sorry to hear about your sister. My Mum was last August too, so I can understand how you feel.
Good luck with getting into the marathon, if you do get a place (and you will…law of attraction and all that…)you’ll love it!!!
Andrea
