volunteering

Hi

as well as signing up for the 10k, i will also be running it for the charity i have started to work for, the elizabeth svensden trust, which is an organization that gives special needs children donkey rides on rescued donkeys...

so far i have been helping with carting, hoof picking and tacking up and poo picking as well as selling some of my cards at the easter fete, where i earned £12 for them.

I hope that everyone is well, and to catch up soon

10 k training

Hi,

I will be signing up for a 10k race shortly. The same hilly 10k that finished me off 2 years ago, I really enjoyed it, but it was a bit much at the time - this time i will be more prepared by 6 months of running.

It is on the cliff path at budleigh salterton, jurassic coast 10k. I absolutely loved it - came last but loved it... don't even mind if i am last again... just want to beat my time and have it not finish me off... (within a few weeks i stopped running)... before it took me 4 months to get to 10k distance which was too fast for me... this time i will have taken 10 months...

I am following jeff galloway's 5 k and 10 k training plan... it looks really good... and not too much

I will be racing before i reach the end of the 10k plan but 6 miles is reached 6 weeks before the end, so will just be slightly less than perfectly prepared, but like i said, i don't mind coming last again, it was still good fun!
