Putting it here because you will all see it.
MNHQ can move it later if they want.

I have only gone and signed up for this
www.teenagecancertrust.org/get-involved/as-a-fundraiser/treks-and-challenges/bupa-10000/

If you all know I will have to do it.

Bloody nora.
I only made it to week 2 of that couch to 5k challenge Blush

Make me do it.
Shame me into training and stuff.
If the nest of vipers that is MN cant make me, nothing can.

I cant give blood this year because of bloody stupid frickin anemia (Im not now but you have to wait a year) so I thought I should do something.

I am now officially scared.

Hello, all! Well done catgirl, competitive pie and wine consumption, I can do that.

catgirl1976 · 14/04/2012 12:02

I think we should try for Team GB

I could bring home a gold for both pie and wine consumption :)

Come with me and we shall try out for the doubles team Grin

Well done and you can do it. Easy!

What about the 100m pie and wine relay team? Then MrsDeV and Fallen get to join in.

Keep going, MrsDeV!

catgirl1976 · 14/04/2012 12:09

Although....will there be enough pie and wine to go round

THANK YOU!!!

I didnt get up till 11am today Blush
Conserving energy for my re-start tomorrow (bet it rains).

Do you really think I can do this thing?

Cherriesarelovely · 14/04/2012 15:52

YES YOU CAN! I do alot of running and I always have the same mantra for any race/distance "I will FINISH" I don't (usually) try for a certain time I just tell myself that if I put one foot in front of another I will get there! Just run a bit/ walk a bit, you can go for miles like that! I wish I lived nearer to you, I love running with people and motivating them! Look up some motivational running quotes, I do that from time to time and it really helps me!

MadamTwoSwords · 14/04/2012 15:58

Did 2k on the bike this morning.
Also did a chapter of my OU (trust me, these things are related Grin)

Its going to be hard to get out today so I will do another 2k on the bike to keep me going.

I have actually trained sucessfully for 5ks without doing any running but I realise that this is impractical when training for a 10k. Grin

6 weeks to go!
