A Short and Sweet Fitness Diary
From one of our newest Young Person Project Worker, Lynn Elsdon. Take it away Lynn...
Although it was with some trepidation that I signed up to the 5k run on Monday, I am now pleased to report that I have found a (magical) website called mapmyrun.com, which has given me a glimmer of confidence. The website allows you to map out your own route, and tells you the distance covered. So, I see that 5k is about once and a quarter around Sefton Park. That's achievable, isn't it? Even for someone who hasn't ran for anything other than a bus since they were ten? I'm going to do a practice run tonight. Oh, what to wear.
What to wear? Hmmm, Maybe some running trainers and a t-shirt? (Just a thought.)
Don't forget, you can donate directly towards our work in foster care homes by sponsoring our Reader Runners here: www.charitygiving.co.uk/janedavis or by sending us a cheque made payable to The Reader Organisation (at The Friary Centre, Bute Street, Liverpool, L5 3LA.)
