I did it!

Well yesterday was not a nice day, in the weather stakes I mean which did not bode well for me in the Race for Life.

I pulled up at Newbury Showgound in the middle of a near storm, the wind was howling and the rain was coming down in droves, I satin my car for several minutes why on earth I had thought it was a good idea to do this in the bleak English summer. 

Never the less I hauled myself out of the car and plugged myself into my ipod and got going, it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought the rain and wind in fact kept me from overheating, I managed to get round in 31 minutes and ran or jogged I shold say the whole way, so I felt pleased with myself and can tick that off and can safely say I don’t think I will ever be doing a run again, its really not for me!

I have a new found respect for anyone who runs the London Maraton I did 5km and couldn’t have gone any further I can imagine running 26 miles.

So thanks to everyone who sponsored me.
