It’d be fair to say I’m a bit tired as the end of 2009 draws in.  On Sunday 6th December I completed a 4k run – the last in my year of running.

For some strange and unusual reason at the start of this year I set out to run as many 5orgnaised runs as I could fit in. At first I was aiming for 5k or 10k distnaces…then Sophie Hodgson convinced me to chuck a half marathon in there.

As extra motivation I opted to do it all in the name of “charidee”. Supporting my local residential cancer hospice, Isabel Hospice who do an amazing job, which I have unfortunately seen up close and personal, and Cancer Research UK.

Despite times being tough everyone has been very generous and I’m delighted to say I’ve raised some pretty good funds this year for my local hospice, and Cancer Research.

Here are my vital stats for 2009:

- Officially ran 55.6 miles
