So... I've decided to keep a blog about my Road to Silverstone.
Yes Silverstone, not to drive (although that would be awesome) but to run! I've applied and been successful in gaining a place in the Adidas Silverstone Half Marathon - 13.1 miles round the Silverstone race track. (about 4.5 laps).
So far I have 2 friends commited to doing it with me (Big Nige and Mark D) - ironically the person who's idea it was has pulled out! (Granted he has an excuse in the form of a brand new baby).
My wife's boss has registered to do it too - but he's at the chiropractor today :)
By doing this I make myself accountable, hopefully get support and encouragement and maybe just maybe inspire others to come and run with us! Visit http://www.adidashalfmarathon.co.uk/ to register online and you're in!
Now - when it comes to running there are 3 things you need to know about me:
I hate running, I find no pleasure in running, and I hate running!
I'm no where near physically fit, and I'm still carrying some Christmas weight....well in fact its about 10 Christmas' really!
Why am I doing this? Why not?
It'll certainly be an achievement, the entire journey is going to be a big lesson in discipline and it's something I've always wanted to do. (Hmmm, not strictly true – I’ve always wanted to run a Marathon - but we have to start somewhere).
With 145 days to go, I've managed 2 miles - yesterday! My aim is to be up to 4 miles this week.
Tonight I go on my second run - another 2 miles. Lets see how that goes!
