Well, the cold virus is keeping me in my house this evening, just as I wanted to meet up with my running buddies at my club and finally, come out of denial, and announce what I am going to be doing in London, on the 21st April, 2013.
So this really is a very short blog, as I have nothing really to talk about, well, apart from what I am about to say. When I told the Old Boy, he was a bit shocked, a nervous laugh was heard on the phone, and then a "Well, you better get some training going on!, I shall come with you and help out, especially as the winter months will keep us off our bikes"
I put in for this after being inspired by one of our group 1 runners, and after I was watching it on the telly. A kind of a whim really, but one that I wanted to happen! And then when I got my magazine, I kind of thought "Oh!, right, so, now what?" I kept quiet. After I told the Old Boy I though it best to let my running club know as soon as possible after that. I am going to need all he support and training I can get.
What am I doing on date just announced, I am sure that there are quite a few of my blog readers will know, as well as some family now, I am doing the Virgin London Marathon!
So, whatch this space, encourage me if you see me in the streets running, and nag me if I am walking, and I look as if I should be running!
OMFG Donna, careful what you wish for, it may come true!!!
