Last outing of the year... And a few thankyou's to wrap up with!

After another prolonged period of snow and ice it's been difficult to get out for a run but managed it today whilst out on the Llyn Penninsular for the New Year. Ran 4.5 miles around Pwllheli marina in 39 minutes, felt quite good after the Christmas excess :-)

This will be my last posting on this BLOG (I'll be keeping another in 2011) so a few thankyou's to wrap up...

Thanks to everyone who has supported me with a donation to either The Isaiah Trust or the RNLI... You know who you are and that you're money will be used wisely and well by the charity recipients. Your support was a massive motivator for me in helping covering the runs and swims and put in the training in order to finish in a half decent time! Thank you!

Thanks to Nicky and Tim for letting me run for the Isaiah Trust in 2010! Keep up the fantastic work! I hope I can help you out again in 2011!

Thanks to Lisa, Chloe and all at the RNLI for allowing me to fund raise again for the RNLI and all the help and organisation you gave (particularly being at the Salford swim after the Great North Swim was cancelled)... But mostly for the RNLI being there when I needed you! A debt I feel will never be truly repaid!

Thanks to the Uswim / Uberfit team for the coaching and open water swimming training sessions and for helping me to discover a new passion in open water swimming... Love it!

Thanks also to Karen and the girls for your support and for just being there! xxx

I'm planning on bigger fund raising events for both the Isaiah Trust and the RNLI next year... Watch this space!

It's been good keeping a training blog again this year... It really has been a great motivator in it's own right, if only to avoid the guilt of long spaces between training sessions! I hope you've enjoyed it! :-)

Happy New Year all!

Dave.
