I ___________(to be) always terrible at sport, especially at school, so I never thought I ______ (to succeed)! Did you know that two athletes and a journalist started the London marathon in 1981 and that the course is over forty-two kilometers long? I ________(to train) for six months - can you believe that I _______ (to go) running every morning? - to make sure I ________ (to finish) therace. I also raised 500 pounds for charity which was a great feeling. It’s fantastic _________ (to feel) part of something so big and successful - I _______(to hear) that over 30,000 people ran this year. Of course, the weather was typical - it ________ (to rain) on the day, but all runners kept warm by running so much! How about _______ (to run) in the marathon with me next year?

Love, Ted
