Notes
I had a toasted bread roll before I set off and a cup of tea. Waited about 15 minutes and then set off! BIG HUGE mistake. Got a stitch from Belton House right in the middle of my chest and all the way up five gates. Ran through it and still pushed myself. Big huge mistake to eat and drink so close to a run. Will never do it again! Chuffed with myself though. Quite a good pace considering. My ambition is to do this as near to an hour as possible and push my pace up to 10 miles. Keep trying! Felt bushed when I finished and its only half the distance of the Great North Run. We have got six months to get in shape. Onwards and upwards!
