In March 2013 I did my first ‘proper’ half marathon; the first ever Warwick half marathon.

Considering it was my first, I was ecstatic with my time of 1:52:15 (especially as my target was to just finish and to say that I completed it without dying!)

I was so proud of myself, I even made myself a certificate to look back on (there wasn’t an official certificate given out, which was annoying, although this has apparently been changed for 2014.)

Because of the event’s success it has been confirmed for a 2014 run (pun intended) and I’m delighted to say that I have signed up to run once again.

I didn’t collect any sponsorship money for the first event as I did to to test myself personally (which it most certainly did, I can tell you!) However I am going to raise money for The British Heart Foundation this year and it would be brilliant if I could surpass my goal of £150.
