Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I decided a few weeks ago it was time to bite the bullet and get myself fit and in better shape for the summer. I’ve been out running three times a week – although when I say running I really mean dragging myself helplessly round the local park.

So I was quite excited when I was approached by The North Ayrshire Athletics Club to try their plan to get from Couch to 10K in 10 weeks – because to be quite honest I could be doing with all the help I can get. I’m not great at running or at sticking to my own made up plans. At the moment I run for a minute and walk for two and I repeat this for half an hour, but I’m working on my own and my motivation is waning, I'm not very fit and I'm overweight - great start. 

My goal is The North Ayrshire 10k on the 6th September and while I train I plan to raise some money for Cash for Kids.
