Tne end in sight

On 1 October, two months after setting off for the rain soaked mountains of Iceland, three final donations brought my total up to the £3100 target I'd set out to reach a year ago.

Two big events, sponsorship from countless generous friends, relatives and colleagues, a beauty sale and a gruelling 100km slog through Iceland; it's been a brilliant experience, particularly reaching that final goal and realising just how well Macmillan would spend that money.

I can say no more than a huge, huge thank you to everyone who sponsored me, came to an event or bothered to read about my Icecapades.
