Just over two years ago I could barely walk across a room without crutches and weighed nearly 21 stone, on Sunday after losing just over 10 stone I completed Brighton Marathon.

Would I be bu to mention this at every opportunity and wear my t-shirt and medal constantly for the next month????

Definitely NBU at all in fact I’d say you were being unreasonable NOT to tell everyone you come across!

Well done!

Fantastic. I'd have it printed on business cards and hand them to everyone I met.

As a fellow runner I have to ask... When's the next one? Grin

Nope. Wear it with pride for as long as you like! Well done you!

Incredible!!! Well done x

KennDodd · 17/04/2018 17:35

Wow! Well done you! I'd change my name to 'I weighed nearly 21 stone, after losing just over 10 stone I completed Brighton Marathon' bit long to go on your passport but so what. Day do day people could call you Marathon Runner.

UpstartCrow · 17/04/2018 17:36

hazell42 · 17/04/2018 17:36
