GNR 2009


Woohoo! I'm in!

I've secured a charity place in this year's race on 20th September

Is anyone else going?

Re: GNR 2009


I'm delighted to say that I can now hang up my half-marathon shoes emoticon Been there, done that and got 2 T-shirts to prove it emoticon Max 10k from hereon in!

I had a brilliant day yesterday and met some amazing people (inc 2 RFRC runners - Elise & Sharon who also ran and took me back to Aunty Joyce's for tea in Tyneside after the race emoticon ) It was very hot and runners were dropping like flies with far too many ambulances having to make their way along the course (it was like a parting of the waves every time you heard a siren!) I decided very early on to relax and enjoy the day. Time was not important and I finished 2hrs 49mins & 55seconds after crossing the start line (about 35 minutes after the claxon sounded). All the training was well worth it as I felt so much better at the end of the race than I did last year! I was also treated to a leg massage in the hospitality tent at the finish emoticon

When all the money is in I expect to have raised in excess of £750 for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

Huge thanks for all your support and especially to my training buddy, Louise.

I'll be collecting sponsorship on Wednesday....

Thanks again

Re: GNR 2009


Good work, Dawn. It looks like you had a great time and came in strongly. Are you sure you want to hang up your half marathon shoes just yet?
