Welcome to this, my first venture into the world of blogging.
So why am I doing this??
18 months ago, I was a balding, middle aged and somewhat overweight Engineer. Then in December last year, I discovered trail running. Come May, I had completed four trail 10k races and thoroughly enjoyed them in a completely mad and masochistic way, given that they featured hills, "water hazards", beaches, mud, and all kinds of other things to make them much more challenging than a typical 10k. I was still middle aged, still balding, and still an Engineer - but decidedly less overweight.
So I thought to myself "what next"? How can I keep the challenge going? And I came up with a challenge for myself. During the course of the winter and spring of 2009/2010, I would undertake four trail running half marathons, and I would add committment and motiviation by doing them in aid of four of my favourite charities.
This blog is the story of this challenge
