December 19, 2003, 01:06:57 »
Just thought as I feel like I know some of you ;D that I'd ask for some moral support. I'm doing my first 10k run on Sunday (I know, it's far too cold/wet/snowy!) and would really appreciate some encouragement....
And it's for charidy
Bit worried about weather forecast...... :o

Thanks Campanula, and Hugh, maybe you can think of a good costume for me (other than wellies and tight skirt) for 1/2 marathon..... :D
Suggestions will be considered....

hey Mystic, all the very very best for Sunday and lots of cyber cheering-you-on from someone who's never ever even run for a bus in her life ... MacMillan nurses do an excellent job and need their funding, so hope that your run brings them in lots of dosh too. - Lishka

I did it! And it was orrible. But not snowy, which is good, but really really really cold.....winds blowing across fields into me face as I tried to climb small mountains (gradual hills...felt like mountains) - grimaced me way through and made it in 1hr 3mins, which is a pants time for me but what the h*ll, I DID IT...AND with nipples like chapple hat pegs!!
1/2 marathon sounds less like fun now though.....
