My dear friends, acquaintences and everyone that supported me during my marathon:

This is a short message, I'll update the website tomorrow with a longer report because I'm very tired but very happy.

Officially, I completed the marathon in 3:54:46 (clock Fortis). My garmin time indicates 3.52.40 - I'm still emailing Fortis about the end . The good news is that I am well within my target time of  4 hours. I'm tired but satisfied with the result and the support I received from you all. When the going was tough your that was my motivation to carry on.

Thanks once again for your great support! With the final amount I raised we can do really wonderful things on the expansion of the hospital.
