Legs hurt

<p><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">I've been doing this running lark for a while now and have decided to put it to good use by signing up for the Edinburgh Half Marathon on May 22nd.&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">The charity I'll be running for is Macmillan Cancer Support - a close relative of mine recently beat cancer and I want to donate to a charity which will help others to do the same. Some more information on the kinds of work they do can be found on the left of this 'ere box.&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">My goal on the day is to complete the race in less than 1hr40min. Although I run quite regularly, for me this distance in this amount of time is almost certainly going to &nbsp;be something of a bastard, so if you could sponsor me for my troubles then that would be amazing as it's going to an excellent, excellent cause and I will be really chuffed if you do.</span></p> <p>I'm going to hopefully start up a blog this week about how the training is going, which I'll post a link to as soon as it's up. I'm not really sure why the font's done an impromptu change here, maybe I've displeased the font-god in some way; this doesn't really bode well for the blog, but anyways, please forgive these technological transgressions &amp; donate. Owt's better than nowt.&nbsp;</p> <p>Big, big love, Sam x</p>
