Jim's half marathon result!

My good friend, Jim, ran the Bath half-marathon yesterday in memory of Theo to raise money for the Restricted Growth Association. I have just received this email from him:

Hi,

Thank you very much to those that sponsored me for the Bath Half Marathon yesterday (and for those that haven't yet done so, you still can via the web-link!!).

We've raised well over £600 in web-donations alone, and with gift aid the total might exceed £1000. I can't thank people enough for their generosity.

In terms of the half marathon result, I can barely walk today, but completed 13.1 miles in a PB of just over 86 minutes. That time puts me a respectable 356 out of around 14,000 entrants.

Hope to catch up with you soon. Thanks again.

Jim

It's still not to late to sponsor him here if you want!

Well done to Jim for such a fantastic result (it's been known for it to take me 86 minutes to manage 1 mile!). Also, our deepest and heart-felt thanks to him for everything he's done. We really appreciate it and know that the money raised will go towards supporting other families like ours!
