On Sunday 7th October I’ll be running the British Heart Foundation’s (BHF) half marathon at beautiful Bleinham Palace in Oxfordshire.
Every year my friend Marcus and I celebrate our birthdays together with a somewhat raucous party - that’s been known to last a few days. But this year we’ll be celebrating with something a little healthier, by running a race together! (Perhaps in preparation for next year’s festivities - my *clears throat* 30th and Marcus’ 40th!!)
Marcus is super fast and runs a sub 3.30 marathon, and his gorgeous girlfriend Lulu is pretty speedy too, and runs a 1.52 ½ marathon – the same as me. So when Marcus goes tearing ahead (which he inevitably will), Lulu & I will be pacing each other.
I’m really looking forward to running a race somewhere beautiful, as all my races so far have been through cities.
