Hitting the ground running

Hello Team FTC Blog Fans!

... So the twelve week count down to our half marathon officially started on Sunday! I am very excited about this; it means I'm starting my 12 week training programme this week! Now that's not to say I haven't already started my training. I usually run 2-3 times a week generally so now it's time to step things up and make sure my training is on target! Not sure why I'm so excited about this but I actually am!...maybe ask me again in a few weeks.

Unlike my fellow runner Flair, I have been running lots in the sunshine recently! - thanks to the change in weather. This in theory is a good thing, however it does mean that I end up doing a very effective impression of a tomato - exhibit A: (fresh from my Sunday 4 mile run!)

Flair and I have also recently started training together which has motivational for us both - if you every fancy seeing true athletes in action keep an eye out along the South Bank most Tuesday evenings!
On the sponsorship front, so far we have nearly reached £300 which is a great start and really keeps me going when I am out running - so thanks to all those that have already donated! A few weeks ago I had a Blue Peter moment and created this:

...which is proudly displayed outside our office - that's right it's our official sponsorship target monitor! I hope you will be suitably impressed.


As you see we have a way to go to reach our target but I am sure we will get there. Thanks for reading and for your support! www.charitygiving.co.uk/run4futures
