Let’s do this!Fundraising for Great South Run 2024 - 10 Miles / Posted: 01/04/2024
Hi everyone!
Why am I here?
Ok, so…I’ve always been a speedy runner - 5k max. Quickly too - (the thrill of smashing it out in 23 minutes will do). I’ve therefore always said I could never ever run long distance because I don’t have the patience and resilience to slow down.
This mentality has put me off the experience of entering races, because, well, why would I enter a 5k race when I do it every week out my front door?
Today I thought, this is a mental challenge. Not physical. I can run. So I can definitely run slower and longer. So I just stepped out my front door and ran an easy 10k with a plod along podcast and attempted to slow it down. The sun was shining and I could have kept running past 10k (crazy) - and I enjoyed it!!!!!!!!
So my entry to the GSR is complete. I just need your help to raise money for Pompey In The Community. As an avid Pompey fan and season ticket holder family, I have followed this Charity for years through both local events in my career in the fitness industry and friend Duke Hunter-Harrison, who until recently, worked as an ambassador for them supporting equality for the club.
Please donate kindly to my fundraising page and support this great charity which enhances the lives of thousands of adults and children across the City and surrounds.
