First charity 10K done.

Completed my first charity run yesterday.It was the Age UK Wrap up and Run 10K in Southport.
It was a good day,apart from the weather,but an experience never the less.
I raised roughly £150 excluding gift aid,so am happy to of contributed to a worthy cause.

I ran it with a female co runner for the day and it was her first attempt at a 10K run.she did well by completing it and didn't seem that puffed out,so i think it will be the first of many for her.She raised money for Age UK as well for the event,not sure how much.

So it is on to my full time preparation for The GNR as i'll call it from now on as its a lot shorter lol.

I am going to attempt to add a minimum of 1 mile per month to my distance in my weekly runs,i've added 1 mile per week for the last two weeks so am ahead of schedule,so need to work on my endurance so my legs will get me there.

My run will probably be on Saturday this week so ill post any progress,i'll probably go for a repeat of my longest run last week of 8.16miles/13k :)
