About Me

Hello. I am not a runner, or someone who exercises, and am not sporty at all. But one day, in the pub, I decided to run a half marathon with my friend Kirsty. We entered ourselves into the Royal Parks Half in October, and started to run. This blog records my trials and tribulations as I try to build up from never running anywhere to running 13 miles.

Week 5 Run 2

2 sets of 8 minutes with 5 min walk in between. The breathing wasn't so good today; I'm thinking it was a combination of hayfever and humidity. London air is pretty intolerable when it's humid , and I hope it's not going to be that sort of summer.

Personally I'm up for a bit of bank holiday weekend rain to clear all the mugginess away, leaving a nice fresh day for our 20-minute odyssey on Monday. I'm looking forward to it but a little scared. 8 minutes felt fairly easy today but it doesn't take a statistician to know that 20 is a lot more than 8. I hope I can do it, I want to do it and if I do, it will be fuelled by willpower and rewarded with cake.
