About Me.....
Well my name is Julie and I have been at Midirs 5 years this year as a Customer Service Advisor. I married Andrew in April 2005 and had our son James in July 2006 ( subscribers would of seen us in the Digest)
My main motivation for the run is to lose the final few lbs of my baby weight (I know you are all thinking wow that's taken a long time to lose baby weight) but most people don't put on 4 1/2 stone, I am nearly there now.
While on a family Villa Holiday my brother-in-law was in training for the Bristol half marathon we got back from out holiday on the Saturday and he ran it on the Sunday, he finished it and we were very proud of him. On the Monday back at work I was collecting sponsorship money for him and said to Andy (the boss) how well my brother-in-law had done, then the following Monday Andy has said that he'd entered us into the 10k at London.
At first I was pleased and thought 'yes' I can do it then after the 1st training session started to worry as i stopped after about 7 minutes and was so red in the face I thought I was going to die.
About my Training...
Monday - Nothing
Tuesday - Nothing
Wednesday - 2.2 mile run (which I walk some of) then Tap Dancing for 1hr in the evening
Thursday - Nothing
Friday - Yes Nothing again
Saturday - run in the morning
Sunday - Run in the morning if didn't run on Saturday
As you can see my training is not that good but with a 19 month old things are difficult, I'm sure it will get easier once the nights are lighter.
I am one of those people who finds running really hard unlike my sister Vanessa who just can do these things.
I will keep you posted on my progress........
