When I signed up to run my second ever half marathon it seemed like months away and here we are with 3 weeks to go - Yikes! As you can see from the mucky trainers I have been training and have even managed to drag myself out of bed earlier than usual so I can increase my mileage. (For those who have not seen 5.05am recently, it is DARK!!! - you are not missing anything). I hope you will help me raise money for this very worthwhile charity by sponsoring me to ensure I make it over the finish line on 15th September. Please check back to see how the panic starts to creep in as we get closer to the big day. I am on for a 12 mile run this weekend, wish me luck (especially as I have given up the booze until after the race!)
