On the 4th July I will be running (and Walking) in the 10km Race for Life in Highlands Park Chelmsford.

Feel free to come along and support everybody, or better still if you want to sponsor me in this worthy cause then full details can be found at;

On this page you'll be able to follow my training and see how well or not it's going

At the bottom of the page you can see a PDF recording just how well the training is going (or not)

25th January

First day of training

After finally finding some joggers that still fitted it was off for a 6 mile walk just to see how I was going to cope.  Well I completed it in 1 hour 40 minutes so not exactly fast but at least I have a good idea that i can go the distance. however my left hip is very sore and I need to to by some new trainers.

26th January

Took to the car and measured out some routes to walk/run, there's a short 2 mile route which is very flat. A 2 1/2 mile route which is 75% uphill if i walk it a certain way. A 4 mile route which has a couple of steepish hills, and the 6 mile walk that I did yesterday. As the fitness returns i'll start to run them as opposed to the fast walking I am doing at the moment

Due to my hip still being very sore I restricted myself to on 2 mile walk today.
