About me.

Lets get things into perspective.

I don't run. In fact, sometimes I struggle to walk. I have arthritis in my knees and back and I am overweight. By quite a lot.

So why have I decided to run a 10K event?

Well, in the space of a month, my friend's partner and then another close friend have found out that they have cancer. Both dont deserve to have to face this.

This is my way of showing support and hopefully to raise money for Cancer Research. Hopefully by documenting my journey, I can stay focused and encourage people to stay interested enough to sponsor me on this epic adventure.

day 2 - 23/5/13

I ache. 

I don't just ache, I ACHE! But my knees dont hurt, so it must be a good ache, so I feel good. And to top it all, I've lost 2lb!! Way to go.

So today's plan is to keep up the momentum without killing myself and just walk 3 and a half miles. 

1st mistake, I didn't wear my super expensive gel infuse, blister resistant running socks, cos hey, I'm only going for a sodding walk.

So I get a blister.....

Only kidding, thats from the film' Run, fat boy, run'....THIS is my blister 


Now don't let the size of the blister fool you. Its hurts like hell. And worse of all, I've now got blood on swanky new trainers.









Its not been a good day.

And now for something a bit random. Dont EVER buy this washing up liquid


Why? Because it's really really crap.
