Were you ever the last few to finish 1500m at school, in the snow, a few hours after [daughter of famous footballer] has already made her way home? Why on earth have I chosen to run 5000m for fun? I must be mad, join me...

This Sunday!

Final Week

I've had a few sessions in past week. Been hard to fit them in between lobsters, which I couldn't refuse, because that'd be rude and my family would be insulted and secondly, do you really think I could refuse food? haha!

My sessions have been roughly analogous to walking uphill pushing a shopping trolley in a sauna whilst doing karaoke. I managed to keep it up for 80mins on Friday, but the fuse in the fan has blown (could smell it). Couldn't hack the heat today and was only up there for 40mins.

Right now, I'm feeling the dip in the morale just before the finale, when everything looks a bit grim and pessimistic. I'll finish within previous target of 90mins but by how far, it's hard to say. I'd put my money on 40+ mins. Setting myself a realistic goal, I reckon 50mins. I might be young (ish) but I aint that fit. I bet I'll be watching grannies over take me, laughing at me huffing and panting.

No badmo tmr either :( that'll be 4 weeks out of action for me now.

On a good note, sponsorship has topped £100 today and well on the way to busting the target of £150. Afterall, this is what it's all about.
