Right, I will be running in this 5K event on 31/08/2012. I don't expect to break any records, or aim to be the next "generation inspiring", Mo Farrah or Jessica Ennis, but just to finish the race will be an achievement for me. 

I've lost six stone in a year and last summer I would never have thought about doing something like this. Although the weight loss has somewhat slowed, (I blame a summer of festivals, cidar and lad's weekends) I have still be running quite regularly and am looking forward to the run. 

I've decided to run in the event and try to make some money for a small local charity, as the small amount I expect to raise would go a long way. 

If you'd like to sponser me, you can here. 

 

Thanks, Jim.
