The longest yet….. 5 miles!

So I know that last time I wrote I said that we’d probably stick to the four mile runs for another week or so…. well Lisa and myself decided to take the bull by the horns and attempt a five mile run!

Simon came with us again, so on Tuesday night after work we laced up our trainers and hit the road. Now I’m not going to try and claim that it was easy, but I’m really pleased to tell you that I finished the run with no stopping at all! The time wasn’t overly quick, but it was a great feeling knowing that I was starting to be able to cope with longer distances, and it has only got me more motivated!

Yesterday I was still feeling a little stiff from Tuesdays exertions, so did a short interval training session, and then I’ll prob look to do a 3 or 4 mile run over the weekend (probably on Sunday as I’m playing cricket tomorrow). Lisa is off for a couple of weeks now, so whilst she is away I’ll be keeping the four and five mile runs going, and then when she’s back to work Simon’s going to take us out for a 6 miler!!!!

We do have some spaces avaialble for the Bristol Half Marathon, for more details e-mail me!

So, assuming we get confirmation of the places we’ve applied for, I will be taking part in this year’s Bristol Half Marathon. The bad news is that I am an overweight non-runner, the good news is that I’ve got almost 6 months to train for it…. And the really good news is that we’re looking for other people to also take part in the event on behalf of Secret World! Continue reading And so it begins!
