NottingHaM MaRATHON ReLay - Everyman Charity

Numbers!!
The Marathon relay went really well!! We won!! 2hrs 41
After alot of driving around and organising on the day everything went smoothly!!
Chris 32 mins
Me    31 mins
Junior 36 mins
Stuart  32 mins
Keith   40 mins
It's always fun running as part of a team. My actual time was 30.51, which I was well chuffed with considering I had two big climbs through Nottingham University and Clumber Park. Sub 6 minute mile pace is good considering the little training I do and the four pints on Saturday night!!! ;-D
We all won a years free membership to Hoofers gym in Nottingham and we should raise over £500 for the Everyman charity. All in all a great day and team effort. :-D
I nearly forgot we won the team prize for the Mansfield 5k as well. Myself, Matt and Junior!!!

WNC - LiVEsTrOnG


I have been in training for the Nottingham Marathon where we are going to run a relay for charity. Had a really quick run tonight. 9.5miles in about 1hr 3mins with the first 2 miles being fairly slow. I am losing a little bit of the beer gut and feeling more like a runner again. I have organised for the team to do a 5k race next week so we can make the final selection. Hopefully raise about £250 which is £50 each for Cancer Research and also raise awareness of testicular cancer amongst the students. I want the team to run under 3 hours which should be possible!!
