1 Day to Go

Well there is only 1 day to go (less than now) before I run the Great North Run. My number is 37745 (pink) if you want to look out for me. They give you colours depending on your expected pace, mine is pink. Then you are sety away in staggered groups according to your group colour, the slowest is white.

They can text my time to people if I set it up, not that I have enabled it yet, better do that in a few minutes.

My digital watch had broke, thought it was the battery but it wasn't. So I bought a new watch for running. An Adidas thing, all I wanted was something with a decent size display and not a Casio that had easy buttons to press. This fits the bill perfectly :-)

I have been loading up on carbohydrates the last couple of days or trying to by eating potatoes and bread. I weighed myself today and I am 11 stone 2. Last time I weighed myself I was about 12 stone 8 or maybe just over that, I think that was in June. My aim had been to get down to 11 stone 6 for the race. So I easily achieved that and I haven't really worked that hard to get there.

I will try to remember to post my time on here once I am texted it. Hopefully on my way home from the race, that's if my brain is still functioning.
