Training Diary - 6

Well, it may be madness, but I decided to risk buying a new set of trainers before the race, and would just see if I can get some miles on them before Sunday.  I wanted something subtle and understated, but in the end, just went for the cheapest pair.  Hail the new running shoes!



I'm hoping they look as hideous on real life!

The arrangements have been made with us runners and close supporters, meeting before sunrise and travelling on the 7.19 to Charing Cross.  I must admit I didn't know that early happened on a Sunday!

If you don't want to come up that early, but want to cheer us on, we'll be at the BrainTumour Charity cheer post located as below.  The race starts at 9.35 but the chances of us getting past the start line at anywhere near that time are quite remote, so the plan is to phone as we cross the start line and maybe again as we approach the cheer point - we don't want you to miss watching us hyperventilate do we?




It's great, you'll get to see me and Caitlin run past both way, what a treat!  Let us know on Facebook, Twitter, Text or Carrier Pigeon if you're going to come and wave at us, there'll be free balloons and everything!

Ok, off to the gym now for some final training, no rest for the wicked and all that...
