After the Christmas and (upcoming) New Year celebrations and obligatory over-indulging of food, I, like many people will be trying to shift the extra weight in the new year. So, with the help of Endomondo, I’m going to train up again for a 10K – not a 10K race this time, just try to get up to the 10K distance again, then take it up to distance Half Marathon for the second half of the year and/or early 2015. The training plan is over half a year and I stretched it out to its maximum length deliberately to allow me as gradual work up to 10K.

I know I can do 10K, I did a race earlier this year (Chickenshed 10K), but after slacking off because of weather, I need to get back into it.

It’s been a while since I posted anything about this, but yesterday, I got a certificate in the post from Chickenshed acknowledging I completed the 10K and raised the great sum of…. £80. Not much, I know, but the main thing is the experience. First time in a charity running race, and what an experience :)

The route for this charity run has now been confirmed. See below:
