Day 31/365 End of January

Hi all, this is my first post and I am very glad to join the community. I started on the 1st of January and have delayed signing up to the blog for 2 reasons. Firstly I wanted to make sure that practically I could see through the task in hand and secondly I had an issue with a scuba diving trip in November. The dive trip would have meant I would have needed to run around the deck of the dive boat at least 50 times a day.

Well after completing a month I believe I am up for the challenge and I have postponed our dive trip to 2014.

I also have one very big incentive to get the challenge complete on New Years eve.  My Daughter will be 18 on New Years day 2014 and we have a planned trip to New York to celebrate and take in Time Square. Therefore my last run will be around Central Park, what a great incentive.

I have set a minimum distance of 3K per day but I am aiming to do around 3 miles/5K, with the support of my friends and family.

So with 31 days done and 138 miles complete I am off to a great start. All advice and help will be gratefully received.

Big Kev

  3. Hi Kevin, welcome and well done. Like you I've just completed my first month but only have a minimum distance of 1 mile so a little easier especially given the recent snow and ice :-)

    1. Hi Angie, it seems that we are on the same journey together, I am excited and nervous all at the same time. Good luck with you runs and stay safe.
