Waking up this morning I made the decision to go to the gym to do some interval training to improve my speed. As I opened the blind and saw the bright blue sky and the warm sun, I realised it was the perfect morning for a run by the canal. I easily ran 10km today with the cool autumn air keeping my body temperature at a reasonable level...thankfully. As I sit here writing, I feel fatigued and a little sore but it was well worth it.
Upon registering for the Brighton Marathon, I entered as a 'general entrant' meaning I wouldn't have to raise money for charity if I didn't want to. However, I have been inspired by the recent Great North Run participants and I am currently doing some research of charities to run for. I like my mom's idea of raising money to help families affected by cancer in my local area. The challenge is finding the right one. I'd like to go for a smaller organisation that has just started or is not getting as much funding as the others. Any suggestions would be great. In the meantime, I will keep searching.
