Well a half Marathon really. And let me tell you that’s pretty damn amazing for me. I have to be the least likely to run person you are bound to meet anywhere. Seriously! I used to skip every gym class possible, with as many exotic excuses as I could think of.   “The cat ran off with my PE kit miss.” “My mum says I’m allergic to the air miss!” Jumpers for goal posts were never my thing.

I am about as fast as an Asthmatic Ant, with some heavy shopping. (thank you Blackadder).

Also I haven’t run ANY distance since I was knee high to a grasshopper.

I managed to run 10k on Sunday which was actually much easier than I was expecting.

You might be wondering what on earth made me want to do such a thing. Well it’s for a very good cause; The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, raising money to treat and cure Cancer. Pretty much everyone I know has been touched by Cancer in some way, so it’s very nice to be able to something to help. Also my girl is a Mentor this year. She has done the event before and they have invited her back to help others. Wow she’s pretty good.

It’s on May 3rd, which is very nearly my birthday. So please this year rather than get a pipe and slippers set from the Woolworth’s closing down sale, donate something on my page.

Here is my donation page.

Anyway I’ll report back my progress here with some photos when I get some.
