On my way to the start line,

We are so close to breaking the £2,500 barrier, it would be amazing to get there by the end of the day (I promise I’ll then stop posting about this non stop).

Thank you to every last person who has donated until now. The generosity has been truly unbelievable.

1 Day to Go…

After 700 miles and 108 runs since finding out I had a place, Marathon training is officially DONE! If I’m not ready now, then I won’t ever be.

I’m doing this to raise funds for Oxfam, anything you can give, big or small would be hugely appreciated;

3 days to go!

Kit is ready, this is everything I’ll be using on Sunday. The thought of 8 gels is slightly nerve racking but worse case, it might just encourage me to run the final couple of miles a bit quicker.

A massive thank you goes to everyone who has donated so far, particularly those in the last few days.

Anything you can give to Oxfam, big or small will make a huge difference to those who need it.

Can I get to Sephora before it opens at 12pm and stop my daughter using my debit card or will she be able to use it to buy whatever she wants? #running #race #fitness #londonmarathon #training @oxfamgb by @dan.hardinges

When you really fancy a beer, but you have a half marathon to run tomorrow morning.

Less than 1 month to go!

It’s been a brutal couple of weeks, even before running an extra 13.1 miles at the Berlin half marathon tomorrow, I’ve already covered over 112 miles / 181km this month alone. I’ve been out of bed before 5am on at least two occasions to get 7 mile training runs in before dropping the kids to school and then off to work. The unpredictable weather has meant I’ve run in sun, frost, rain, mud and pretty much everything else except snow.

Even this week, which is supposedly my ‘recovery’ week before a 20 miles run next weekend, over the last 7 days, I will have run further than the distance of the marathon by lunchtime tomorrow.

Whilst the marathon will be the single hardest push I’ve ever had to do, It’s just one day. The reality is I’ve been building towards this for over 9 months. Once tomorrow’s run is done, I will have run over 600 miles since finding out I had a place.

By donating to Oxfam using my link above, you aren’t just making a donation for me running the marathon, you are donating for the sweat, the aching legs and hard work that’s going to get me to the start line. by @dan.hardinges
