only 6 days to go until the half marathon!

Wednesday 7 October 2009

Just to give you a quick update on progress, yesterday I managed to do a 7 mile/11km run outside in 1 hour 20 minutes – not a blistering time by Olympic standards but I’m getting steadily better all the time. Actually it was quite a ’blistering’ run all the same, just not that fast :oD
I’m not sure what my body was more shocked about though – the running itself or the fact that I was on the road at 7:50am on a Sunday when I’m not even usually awake
For those of you who have been (kindly) monitoring my calories please note that I am actually required to take in a bit more food this week as I’ll need plenty of energy at the weekend
Thanks again for all your support, both financial and verbal – I really appreciate it. 
It’s been a tough couple of months but the end is in sight now!
cheers,
John
