Finding my pace

On the eve of the 16 mile race...time has flown, too much to do, too little time!

Last week was another back ended 3 runner, with bonus miles (13.8 return)to see the new Walton bridge (without the trace of the old)


and to 'hit the wall' on the return....
Ending on an 10:10 min /mile average..

Then to spend the entire week sneezing and trying to keep the cold above the throat...killing boxes of tissues ...not the best at all.

Tomorrow, I'm taking part in the Whole Foods Market Kingston Breakfast Run as the lead up to the longest run for vmlm 2014 (not me, but hubby's) and......to raise money for Breast Cancer Care.


Why?

1.We all know women who are affected by Breast Cancer and to ensure that
they get more informed and support whilst fighting this battle - check out
their website , its a wealth
of information that seems to have a more personal touch for those who would
like to find out more.

2. I've signed up to Whole Foods Market Kingston Breakfast Run 16mile as my
usual spring half marathon was cancelled in February, this is a challenge as it
will be the longest distance for me since Brussels in Oct 2012!

3. Breast Cancer Care have asked if I would like to join their team with no
minimum fundraising target (I have paid for the entry fee without their
support), so every little bit helps.

4. Almost end of the financial year, if you need to include more
charitable donations on your tax return - this is the chance!

Too much on...and it's a half marathon + 5km's with an 8am start.... My aim is to find and maintain my pace and still pick up some decent gels and a goody bag along the way!

After all, it's a whole foods race. And my only membership at the sub-2 club has been a Human Race organised event.

This time, a sub-3 will be lucky. Let's hope the weather is calm for a good run.
