My story

After stopping smoking and having excess energy to burn, I decided to take up running, and to give myself incentive and motivation to carry on, have entered the Crisis Square Mile Run which is 3.5 miles long, which is a long way for me as I usually get taxis everywhere.  And it's on a Thursday which means I'm going to miss Eastenders.

UPDATE:  Well, I did the race last night and had a great time, I loved it!  Thank you very very much to everyone who sponsored me.  You'll be pleased to know I earned my money (well, not my money but you know what I mean) as I did the whole route without stopping.  5 months ago I couldn't run a tenth of a mile without stopping :-)

UPDATE #2:  It's not too late to sponsor me (until the end of August I think), go on, you know you want to ;-)
