Friday 5 September 2008

Having bought my first pair of running shoes for over 5 years this week I feel that I am now prepared for the task ahead on Sunday morning, when a select few (of the both Team Hillary and Team Tenzing) will be competing in a 'fun' run in Chiswick. It may only be 10k but as one of the members in the Hillary Team has pointed out on his blog, I can't see where the fun is. That said, there is a BBQ and beers afterwards so I may well be mistaken.

I am currently suffering from an injured back and as such my training has suffered a little....Having had physio twice this week i can say it far from relaxing and included acupuncture which might only be small needles, it feels like you may have pi**ed off a bull whilst running in Pamplona. Still, it seems to be doing the trick so I am feeling confident if a little apprehensive about Sunday morning.

The good news is the first warm up 20Twenty match has been arranged for the 27th September and weather permitting it will provide us with a good insight to the level of cricket we will be facing, whilst at the same time enjoying a few beers and getting to know one another a little better. There can only be one result and that is obviously a victory for Team Tenzing!
