Report (Final) - 16/05/10

Well well where do i start, i cant believe that the mey 10k is over. the 2 weeks leading up to the 10k was quite exciting but at the same time quite scary as it was going to be my first 10k.

Well 5 months ago i couldn't run a mile let alone 6 miles, and by being a featured runner i was putting my neck on the line as i had to put the effort in as it was going to be there in black and white every fortnight for everyone to read and i have to say i really enjoyed all the training, although i had my injurys which i never really overcome but i still battled on and hoped that it would just go away, but unfortunately due to profesional advice i was unable to take part in the 10k on the day, oh how gutted i was, .but i was there at the start line to cheer them on and i had a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye as they all set off , and secretly wishing i was setting of with them, the atmosphere was fantastic and the adrenilin rush as they all started crossing the finish line was fab i was quite anxious as to how my fellow featured runners were doing and i have to congratulate them as they did fantastic, i just wish i was crossing that finish line with them.

I am really gutted i never got to run but there is plenty more 10ks and theres always next year, im just going to make sure i get myself fit again ,so ill not be running for a few months but once i get the all clear from the specialist ill be back out pounding the streets as im not letting all my hard work go to waste.

I would just like to thank everyone for there support and also i would like to thank donna and sophie for choosing me to be a featured runner,c u next year .
