Running / Sporting Ambitions / Goals

When I started running the plan was to manage a Race For Life 5km in 2011, but I soon changed that to plans for a 10km (have entered the Heaton Park one on 9th July 2011).

Main goal now is to complete the Freckleton Half Marathon on 19th June 2011 – and hopefully not let my younger/taller brother show me up to much in the process, as he’s also entered it.....
Any other interests, sports, hobbies.

Trying to get back into swimming (recreational only). 
Paper crafting (card making and scrapbooking).

Reading (mostly crime novels).
Most memorable event that you have experienced (in sport or in general) Being at the births of both my grand-daughters
Sporting Icon ??? Never been interested in sports
Anything else you want to add

I’ve been made to feel very welcome at the club, even given the fact that I’m a complete newcomer to the sport. 

My only piece of advice to other beginners would be NOT to do a 3.5km run before trying the ’18 hills’ session on a Wednesday night !!!   I somehow ended up doing this the first time I met up with the club, and paid for it with very sore legs over the next couple of days – but it was still a great evening
