In 2012 I'm concentrating on my favourite race - the half marathon - and have decided to run twelve of them (one per month). I'm raising money in aid of Parkinsons UK and hope during the year to raise over £1000. This blog is my way of telling those who sponsor me what I have been doing and my progress through the year.

August event finally booked
After a few months of delaying my entry for Augusts race, I finally plunged for a different race from the one I had intended. I was just about to enter the Valer of Pewsey race on August 26th when I discovered that it did not award a medal at the end of the race but just a T-shirt. Although the medal should not matter, I was starting to enjoy collecting a medal at each event. So, I plunged for a race a week earlier at Burnham Beeches near Slough. This race is really intended to be a little slower than the last race (not quite a PB - one second slower) so I will still be racing, but I'll be happy if I am quicker than 1.35 (to keep my average up). I think I will aim for 1.32.30 so watch this space!
