My faith in humanity went up a little yesterday. Having not actually sent the link to my JustGiving page out to any friends or family or workmates I got a donation. Let the record state that Fee, Brynley and Rach were the first people to sponsor me and give me an extra reason to put myself through this. Now I've got people to not let down and feel less exposed than when I put the page up. Thank you guys. An honorable mention here also goes to Martyn who thinks my training is crazy. This is from a man who ran a sub 3h30 marathon so the feeling is mutual ;-)
Which all leads on to unpleasant realities. Part of my training is carrying my kettlebell up the 7 floors of stairs at work. Unpleasant is one way to describe this were one to indulge in typical British understatement. My legs currently feel like jelly and my heart did make a serious attempt to escape from my chest cavity. However, if I can get over the initial shock then I reckon this is perfect training. It's specific and will develop balance and leg strength that will be invaluable later on. Provided I survive it.
