Hello there!

I’ve begun training for the Great Manchester Run 2007

Give me fifty you worthless maggot!

So it begins all over again… I want to get back to the condition of weight and general fitness that I was at when I did the run last May. That means losing about half a stone in two months by forgoing the deli at lunchtime and getting some exercise.

I went to the gym last night, and ran for 25 minutes and had two 15 minute sessions on the bikes without any difficulty. I am fitter now that when I started training for the run last year so really it should be easy this time.

I’m going out for a run after work with Stuart and Dani. We went last week, hopefully this will become a routine up to the run and beyond.

Wish me luck, and don’t forget to sponsor me!

    PAULANDDEB are doing the run too. They went to a gym on monday!! *in shock*

    Mark applied to it too, but they wouldn’t let him in. They don’t want his charity money! : )

    My plan is to go to the gym twice next week, and for a run with my workmates once.

    If I can keep that sort of thing up, I’ll be in shape well before the run.

Comments are welcome. Keep it friendly and on-topic please.
