I am a bit of a slob. I am not sporty. I am the last picked in the team games, you know the one. I put on weight when pregnant with my daughter and now she is nearly 9 it is still there.
I don't mind being pleasantly plump but I don't want to be unfit.
So..(and please don't giggle here) I have taken up running.
I might not run for the rest of my life, I might just do exercise at home. However, I have, in a quick-press-return-before-you-change-your-mind moment, I signed up the The Great South Run 5km. It is not the big run but a small version the day before. But still 5km, that is about 3 miles, that is pretty good for a start. To spur me on I have decided to raise money for the NSPCC ChildLine.
So this morning I went for my first run. Which is actually a lie as I went for my first, second and third run about a month ago but then we went on holiday and I stopped. But I have started again. I have my playlist on my ipod, I have a kit to wear, I have my hair tied back in an unflattering way, baby I am ready!
If you do want to sponsor me, and it would be very much appreciated, you can follow this link to the site. Thank you.
