ONLY 5 DAYS TO GO ..........TO THE GREAT SCOTTISH RUN :-)

Well race day is nearly upon us and hopefully all the training over the last 6 months will pay off
Only a couple of short runs during the week and some yoga and stretching excercises. I have really enjoyed the experience and it seems like a lifetime ago that I was running in the Guernsey half marathon in 1986 & 1987.

Still a little way to go on the fundraising to reach £500 target, and donations can be made right through to end of September too after the race.http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/MichaelWard10
Good luck to all those of you taking part on Sunday, see you at George Square!

 

I will be back with some regular walking blogs very soon before the weather detiorates futher into Autumn..............keep on running/walking :-)

26 Days to go and training going well

Just a quick update on the half marathon training
Now have 3 circuits on the go and will extend again later in the week - Currently doing 6.2 miles around Jackton and Lindsayfield and will add Auldhouse and Langlands too, which will take it over 8 miles.

Fundraising currently at £375 and will give it another push tonight to reach the £500 mark by race day
