1st test and crap maths

i got paid today, and tuni, jv and chambo are wanting me to nip over for some "beers". this is going to be a fairly easy, but still endless test of my will power. I'm pretty sure ill manage, seeing as their all dicks.....only joking boys. (except bout chambo)

Im not really noticed it being that hard yet, but I'm really not looking forward to the end of Feb and march. Got chambo/jens/donnans/carrits birthday, a works night at shanghai Shuffle, Kelly's 30Th and my dads birthday. But Ive got a 3 mile run on 16/03 to focus on so hopefully that ll make it easier. and that brings me onto my maths...

...in my head (and i don't know why cos Kelly and chambo both told me the right answer) i thought 3miles was 6k, but i knew that a 10k was 6 miles. so basically Ive been trying to run a 6k in under half an hour.... and managing to nearly kill myself in the gym! i only realised i was a total walloper when i came off the treadmill, jelly legged and seeing stars, when i saw a conversion chart for MPH -KMH and realised my mistake. my elation was so much that i nearly wet myself(and cos Id ran so much, my sweat made it looked like i had.)

Anyway ill keep everyone posted, and i know that most people will sponsor me at some point, but if you could make a comment on this blog pledging some cash, that way Ill have evidence.

cheers

charadee

I have just set up my charity site www.justgiving.com/alanmccrear which is where, if your reading this, will be where you part with your hard earned cash to ease my suffering. Instead of buying me a drink, pledge it on my other site (or do it in a lump sum, for a years worth of drinks. Also feel free to pretend we go drinking in Iceland where its £7 a pint...)

ill hopefully be doing some other stuff, possibly a 10k, maybe some hair/beard related stuff but ill keep you posted on here.

so get onto the site get some cash pledged and sit back, relax and enjoy watching me have a year of misery. ill see you's on the other side....roll on 01/01/2009 (at 4am as some cow from work reminded me. cheers caleidh!!) : (
