For those of you who know me personally, I’ve been through periods in life in the not too distant past where it is fair to say I have been somewhat on the large side.
Well, stepping onto those scales sometime ago, and getting (almost) a heart attack at the size of the number peering back at me from the floor, I decided to do something about it.
First of all, lots of low impact exercise like cycling, watch the beer (I know – that is shite) watch what I eat, and gym membership and the like..
Well, good news, it’s worked.
I’m a hell of a lot lighter than I was, although I will admit I am not *there* yet, but definitely on a curve to my target.
Well, I’ve now been running on and off for a few months, although breaking my big toe in January (Taekwondo) and the ensuing uncomfortablness in running until May, kinda put paid to as much training as I would have liked.
However, Since May I have started by hauling my somewhat lighter arse round a little route at work, on and off with a couple of workmates, and pushed things from 2 miles out to a 5 miler, which I don’t think is too bad.
Well, now, these running buddies of mine have suggested I take part in a 10k race……
….. So I am..
If anyone reads this, then some sponsorship wouldn’t go amiss.
I am running for the British Heart Foundation, the BHF, they are the prime organisers (like the London Brighton Bike ride) and I guess everybody has a heart, so, with that, here is my link for sponsorship….
