Its not all That Bad!!

Hello from the Large Runner,

I say large but actually not so large anymore, when i signed up for this mission nobody told me i would be able to fit into my old clothes that i used to fit! So consequently i am having to wear stuff from Karen my wife;s wardrobe. Nothing new i hear some of you say. (only joking). I thought i would blog for you lot that are down and despondent. Tom you will do it because you are doing it for the same reason as me, Fluff. After seeking advise from a athlete they have told me i will probably not be able to run the whole amount before the actual race, so what i have had to do is plan into my training schedule that the race itself will be the last run of my schedule, if that makes sense.? Saying that it the last two weeks i have managed a 6 mile walk at 4.4 mph cos the training watch tells me speed over distance etc in around an hour and twenty, that includes stopping to chat to various people on the way.

To all you Team Atko members just remember this:

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

See you all on the 1st for a drink....PS its my B/day.

Love Uncle Rab x
