I'm so unfit!

Distance: 0.6 miles
Time: 5m35s

How did I manage to be running 10 miles back in January? It doesn't feel like I'd even be able to run more than one at the moment. Still, that's not important right now - what's key is to get some regular short runs in, to gradually get used to my orthoses, and also to gradually start building up my muscles and running ability again. I don't need to rush things, and I don't need to think about running more than a mile for the next few weeks anyway. Even so, it feels a bit weird now feeling short of breath after half a mile!

Running 13.1 miles in memory of Carl

I ran the Silverstone Half Marathon on 15th March 2009. I managed the 13.1 mile course in 2 hours and 4 minutes. Not a bad effort for my first Half Marathon! I returned in 2010 to run it in 1 hour 54 minutes, and plan to do it again in 2011. I decided to run this in aid of The PSC Trust and PSC Support in memory of my brother Carl, who died from liver failure in November 1997. If you'd like to sponsor me for this - please email me at pscrun@ulen.me.uk PSC Trust
