On Wednesday I’m gonna watch the football Barcelona vs. Arsenal. With the Fish. Me watching football happens once in a blue moon, or more correctly twice or three times a year. This however, is already my second match of the year – the first was for Goatboy’s birthday.
Anyway, I ran today. Like a monkey with sore calf muscles. 13miles or 21k or my last and by all means most favourite term for this distance – a half-marathon! This is the first time I’ve gone that far, and am certain to get that time faster and faster as the weeks progress.
It was really cool, for those interested I ran it in 2:15 and burnt an insane 1900-odd calories. BPM was totally cool, and I was able to talk with my Consiglieri, Beatricé, who ran and then cycled with me all the way – thanks missus. We also ran past Crystal who was racing through the Bout-du-Monde area.
Anyway, cheers everyone for all for the support, and I shall keep running like a monkey with sore calf muscles – sponsorship (thank Si) really helps for two reasons. Firstly, it means that your friends care about what you are doing which is massively supportive in and of itself. Secondly, and more importantly, it reminds you that you are running for something bigger than yourself, in my case for Phabkids, and that every cent you help raise will directly help others. Sermon over, happy Sunday kids…
