Running on pride

My amazing husband is running the Paris marathon this year - in April, which is just two months away. A mutual friend dared him to do it the Sunday after New Year: what better goal for the new year? He's been thinking of doing one for ages and this was exactly the kick he needed. So he's been running since then - surpassing everything he thought he could do, coming home with new enthusiasm, new aches, new pains, new highs, new reasons to stay out there.

He's running for 'Get Kids Going' and training with our friend who has run this marathon (and others!) before - invaluable experience to have out there on the training days.

This is a not-so-subtle call for donations - please donate! Anything would be amazing. You can even follow his training and likely beyond at his new blog: nas can't stop. Messages of support and sharing your experience of doing anything like this would be more than welcome.

PS. Tell all your friends about the philanthropic gesture of the year!

And thanks all... please visit Nas over there and tell him how cool he is.
