For many years now I have promised myself that a half marathon should be a milestone in my life. Well now is as good time as any.
On Sunday September the 16th I will be donning trainers and shorts and putting myself through 13 1/2 miles of mind numbing pain. WHY DON’T YOU JOIN ME!
It is in aid of a very good cause - The Bristol Old Vic. We are securing places for Bristol Old Vic team and you could share my milestone and run to help fund the refurbishment of Bristol’s premier producing theatre. Sponsorship is being sort for the team that will match our individual sponsoship efforts. If you are interested in running or sponsoring our brave team then find out more.
Otherwise if you have any advice on how to survive 13 1/2 miles without crippling yourself please feel free to respond.
Scott Rogers - Director of Communications and Development
