Dart Vale Half Marathon

On Sunday I'm running my first Half Marathon. No big deal for most of you, but a big achievement for me - 2 yrs ago I couldn't even run to catch a bus!

I have to say that I'm really NOT looking forward to it at all! However, I said I'd run to raise money for Hospiscare (a charity close to my heart after my mum died of cancer 4 years ago). It will really help me get through this challenge, knowing I'm raising money for such a good cause.

If you'd like to donate, then see me at swimming. Alternatively, if you're taking part and would like to keep me company, that would be great - although I should say I shall be VERY VERY slow (2 1/2 - 3 hrs ?!!!)! Or if you pass me, shout something encouraging - and not rude!

See some of you there,

Karen

I did it - 2 hrs 32 mins! Very pleased with that.
Great run, very friendly, nice and undulating. Suffering now though!

Well done Karen! The next one will be a lot easier, I promise! (well, maybe not the Wimbleball one!) x
