So, in 5 months time, we'll be among the Himalayan Mountains, trekking up to Base Camp to undertake a World Record Attempt. That's pretty huge!
Before that mega challenge, there are a couple of smaller challenges to overcome along the way, namely to get fit and to raise £1500 for charity. Now it's winter and my default setting has kicked in; stay in and keep warm or hit the pub - actually hitting the pub is my year-round default position.
But not this year (well, not from here on out, anyway)! In a bid to get fit, I'm committing to attend Trim Trail on a Wednesday evening and Saturday morning whenever possible and to start back up at Running Club on a Tuesday evening. I used to be pretty fit - it can't be that hard to get back (can it?!?!?!).
In further bids to get myself back in the training game I've signed up for the Bath Half Marathon in March and the Grim run in December. Grim is less than 1 month away, so I'd better get moving.......literally!

About Me

- 2008 has been a busy and exciting year. I started it without having much excitement planned, but it's now drawing to a close and I've become a married woman, been on an amazing honeymoon, started a Postgraduate Diploma and joined a world record attempt....so, all in all, it's been a good year! Now, life is crazy-busy. I'm working hard in my job at the British Library, studying hard for a Diploma in Marketing, saving hard to finally buy a house and now, finding time to train and fundraise for, what will be, a once in a lifetime, trip.....
