Ian has raised not only the £540 on this MT page but also a furterher £215 via his Just Giving page which has already been credited to the Jacob George Holmes Tribute Fund. A grand total at 21 Nov 2012 of £755!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am extremely grateful to Ian and Claire for the support they have given us in raising funds for the MT.

Less than 2 weeks to go now. Good luck to Ian and everyone else who will be running or supporting us. I am looking forward to having some special time out there on those hills with my son.

Someone told me we only had 9 weeks to race day. Slightly worrying thought. Survived the Belper Rover but 25 minutes slower than hoped so a lot of progress needed these next 8 wees. Ian had a brilliant run at the Rover so looks to be in great shape.

This is set to be a great event with so many of us running or supporting. Big test this weekend for many of us with the Rover. I am hoping that we are all getting the training in and that any injuries will go away. Special thought for Coach Penny who needs a bit of good luck to get him back on track. The picture here is from 2006 and shows Tommo and Browny as they come over Llandberris Pass at 4 miles (just before Tommo stopped!) As Ian is volunteering to run this one for Jakes fund i hope that he has a great run and that everyone gets behind him and supports him. My aim is to get round and still be mobile at the end of the day!
