So close to your target! As someone has already mentioned think you'll have to increase it!
Good luck though and congratulations for raising awareness and money for such a worthy cause.
Loved the blog post! I'm training for the Manchester marathon in April and all my running is in the dark at the moment too, and I'm a country bumpkin so no streetlights for me (got to love the high-vis with built in flashing red light on back coupled with decent head torch). Good luck with the training!

I will increase it once the current one gets reached - never too sure what to set as an initial target as you don't want to be over-ambitious! Mind you, I didn't think I would be so close to revealing my secret so soon!
I remember years ago running around Southampton Common by moonlight and seeing what looked like two alien green lights darting randomly around in the distance. Was getting a bit worried as I got nearer, then realised it was tow black labradors with green flashing collar lights on! Had never seen them before! 🙂
Best of luck with your training for the marathon!

I can't let this disappear of the bottom of the threads, so I have moved it up, anyway I want to see what this surprise is, only another ?20 to find out
I don't know why I'm pushing this, just remembered I promised another ?10 if he reached his target by the end of the month 😱

I thought you were my friend! 🙂
Just written a new blog post at:

Loving the blog Alan and you have just inspired me. Feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment as not well and can't play tennis or run this week. I think I will sit on the bike and pedal easily to some lovely tunes - not steps though!😱

No changing the target until we know what the surprise is...........I've got some difficult stuff to work on for work at the moment so checking whether the surprise has been revealed is turning into my highlight for the day I can't believe that it's only ?20 until we know!!!!

I've never been called the highlight of the day before (but maybe all that is about to change....😉)

It's very tempting isn't it Rob! I nearly added extra money today just to find out what the surprise is.......but I guess we have to wait.....but then again patience has never been a strength of mine Northerner must be getting very worried
