RNLI sponsored Great Manchester 10k photo

Thought i'd put this photo on of me running the Manchester 10k run in 54 mins for the RNLI. Quite chuffed, lost two and a half stone in the training and raised over £200 for them!

Great Run

Well done Paul, a great result in more ways than one.

I to was up doing the run in Manchester and finished in 49mins, which made me 4,681st out of some 33,000+ runners. I managed just to finish before the rain started.

I hope you are now recovered and see you on the IOM trip in a couple of weeks. Will give £10 towards your sponsorship.

If anyone would like to support my fund raising it would be welcome. I did the Manchester and will be running the Great North & South runs in aid of the Anthony Nolan Trust and you can help by using the following link, and if not, why not sign up for the Bone Marrow register. I promise it is painless and very, very worth it.
Cheers

Thanks for your kind words, will check out your site. I'm not doing the IOM trip, but will be at puffing island to see you all off. Will definitely be on the round the island trip on the sunday though. We moor in front of the Gazelle nr beaumaris so will be around. Would be good to meet you.
