So, the final training totals are 60 hours of training, 600km run and 48,400 calories burned. You have donated an amazing £1,132 to Christian Aid. Thank you. It’s one week until my half marathon run. A week is a long time. So much can happen in 7 days. For me these 7 days will be Read More …
In just 3 weeks I’ll hopefully be basking in the satisfaction of having completed the Great Scottish Run half marathon but it hasn’t been plain sailing.
