Running Tales ......

So training is going pretty well and I'm up to 9 miles now.

I'm not really worried about my time to be fair I'll just be happy to finish the 13.1 miles in one piece.

Mr A year in the life has been helping out with training by being a support rider on the bike, he wears the Macmillan's tee shirt I had printed with my text code on the back to get the message out.

A few weeks ago I ran a 10K that was organised by womens running - I enjoyed it so much that I've entered another one in Nottingham on the 19th July. I have to admit one of the main reasons for choosing Nottingham is because its by the river and so flat !!! 

I HATE hills !!!!!

I had my 2 girls at the finish as a cheering squad and finished in 1.09.35 which I was really happy with considering the hills at Sutton Park - hence the flat Nottingham run.

The day after the 10K I took part in Race for Life as part of Team Viki's Breasties.

 A group of us walked the course with Viki our friend who was diagnosed with breast cancer in January and has been receiving treatment since then and we are all incredibly proud of her. We had a fab day the weather was gorgeous and we had a picnic in the park afterwards to celebrate.  

So that's my training update - if you can spare £1 then please do as it says on the tee shirt and send that text !!! 

speak soon
lots of love

Sooooooo.....how are you all ?  <stares at the floor> i wasn't really very goo d at this blogging lark and also had an amazing year of birthdayness that it sort of got pushed to the back of my mind really.

So ...I'm back with more adventures and I'll try and catch up on a few of the things I just toally missed out telling you all.

First things first I'm now 41 so I shall we changing the blog name ( if that's possible , I shall investigate), secondly I have moved jobs, I'm still in Sales but for a different company called Uvex who make safety equipment, most notiably ski goggles and helmets.

And my big news is......<drum roll> I'm running the Bupa Birmingham Half Marathon in October. So there will be lots of posts about my training and suffering and struggles - I'm not a natural runner at all so its proving pretty hard work.

So thats it and in the words of Take That  I'm back for good.

See ya soon
