Not long now!


At the time of writing, I have only 10 more sleeps til the run! Went for a run this morning, did 4 miles and the legs are hurting again. Up until about 10 days ago the training was going really well, then I got a chest infection, followed by going to Slovenia for 4 days to watch Northern Ireland play (see pic of me and Colin supporting Our Wee Country), followed by a 2 day residential work training course - all of which meant my routine has been blown out of the water. 

But this morning's run felt ok, though the legs are burning now! I'm going to get a few longer runs in early next week, then a shorter one next Thursday, to rest for my legs for Sunday week.

I knew I'd never be able to run 10 miles without stopping, so the plan is still the same - run as far as I can then walk a bit, run a bit all the way home!

Thank you again for all your sponsorship, it keeps coming in so which is brilliant. If you haven't yet been able to, please have a look at my justgiving site and donate if you can, I am nearly at my total!

More soon blogfans!

Lovely picture of you and Colin! Not long now indeed! When you said you had 10 sleeps to go, I was like surely that can't be! But oh look... October is half over! Still cheering you on from very far away! GO NEIL!
