I started my training last week. After being sick for so long my fitness had really suffered and I'm finding it hard to get back into it. I'm in my second week of training now and am only up to 3km. The race is on the 7 June so I have about a month to get up to 10km which is going to be a big challenge, but if your thinking now, 'why bother?' Theres a certain attraction to the achievement you feel from running that little bit further, and the fact that I'm helping someone at the same time because I am doing it in aid of Down Syndrome Ireland. Every time I run I get the satisfaction that I'm helping make someones life better. I am lucky to be doing some of my training with school, and our coach Ms.Coyne is great at motivating and shes pushing us all the way. Her training schedule involves running to a dart station a week. The next stop is Seapoint, but I can barely make it to Dun Laoghaire! But its early days yet!
So the training goes on. I've no pictures for these posts because I mostly run alone but their will be one of the finishing line!
