The final never ending hill
During this winter break I went home for christmas. My brothers were taking part in the Cannock Chase Canni X event in Staffordshire (results). Unfortunatly my older brother, Adrian had a rugby injury and I took his place. I was not running fit, as the commute to London from Chichester over the last 4 months had meant I could not train as much, but I still felt I was fit enough to compete. We travelled down there early on the 28th of december.
Despite coming last in the male catagory with a shocking time of 31:24.16, I have to say it was a great event and I am definately signing up for some more events. Starting with a half marathon in May entitled the Neolithic CaniX, I have begun training which is going well with 4 mile runs to the gym, a casual 30 lengths then the 4 mile run back.
I am tracking my progress using imapmyrun on my iphone which uploads to my mapmyrun account and inturn notifys Twitter, facebook and this blog, so not only can you see how things are going, I will also hope to record the run on the day.
I am running on behalf of InnerWolf Ltd for dogs and dog owners with a love for the great outdoors, so check out their website.
