The Great Manchester RunOk then, so an email came round at work on friday from one of the lads in finance, saying he was entering the Great Manchester Run this year, and wanted a team from our office to join in with him.
Now I'm not at all sporty, or athletic, in fact you could go as far as to say I'm completely unfit, and diffinately shouldn't be planning on doing a 10km run. However I'd been chatting with my boss, who works out a lot and even ran the london marathon last year, as to the best way to get in shape and loose my love handles, my good lady has been pestering me about them for about a year now, and he reconned that jogging was the best way. So when I saw this it just seemed like the right thing to do, as if it was put there for me just as I needed it.
There's now gonna be a group of around half a dozen of us from sales entering, and probly a load more from other departments, and I'm gonna have to get fit so I don't embaress myself by dropping dead half way through.
I'll be doing it in aid of Asthma UK, seeing as I'm a sufferer myself, so long as I can sort out the sponsorship forms off their website, and will expecting lots of generous contributions.
I've got 4 months to sort myself out. Gotta knock the fags on the head, keep the pot to the weekends, and will be doing my first bit of jogging tommorow night. Will hope to get in a few sessions a week, weather permittting, and if it's too wet I'll work out indoors, sit ups push ups etc.
Gonna keep you all posted as to how the training's going, will be nice to have something pointfull to blog about for once.
So wish me luck, and have a think about how much ya can afford to sponsor me.
Here's hoping I don't die.
Ste.
