Do see the post below with Stephanie Butland and go to Jo http://gapyearsthebook.blogspot.co.uk/ where Stephanie will be found today. 

Last day of the Paralympics today. I am feeling quite sad about that. It has been wonderful - inspiring, overwhelming, amazing,. A place where dreams come true and disability is lost in ability. Where people say - see what we can do not what we can't. To see people making the best of what must be for many the worst thing that could ever happen to them. I have loved it. I hope this does change our attitude to disability

Thankfully Chloe and Ed are keeping me informed about the marathon. They got up very early and are by a feed station near Embankment sending regular updates. 

I have had a yucky start to the day - being very, very sick. I think this is the sign that I have done too much this week. I am still not good at building in rest times and tend to keep going until I have to stop. I am going to try and do that in the weeks ahead! Maybe!!!! I continue to be so grateful for my life and want to live it to the full. So this week includes, our church older peoples tea, shopping, helping a friend sort, flower arranging at church, ladies who lunch and bible study, tutoring restarts and lastly on Saturday I am meeting up in London with the girlies I trained with  33 years ago. Oh dear am I really that old! Today will be a quiet day - hopefully!
