And it's all becoming rather real, especially now all my stuff has arrived!
My Crohn's and Colitis t-shirt, my running number, my book of instructions... oh my!
And the fundraising is going really well - (as I type) only £85 to go until we hit our target of £500!! This is AMAZING. But of course I couldn't blog about my run without another cheeky plea!

I've been gymming it for the last month or so and have realised a few things: 1) how out of shape I am [not a massive surprise] 2) how my medications have plumped me right up over the years [again, who am I kidding thinking I'm still thin?!] and 3) how bad my arthritic knee is getting [this is new].
I'm aware that I'm going to have to train ruddy hard these next two weeks, strap my knee up like I'm hiking a mountain and push myself to try and beat my time from before. That would be 1hr 09 for your reference.
It's going to be tough - but nothing in comparison to some of the shite Crohn's puts you through!
Every cloud and all that!!
