The last time I was really serious about running, I was getting in trouble for wearing nail polish at school and stressing out about what to wear to the disco the follwing week.
However, I will be running 21km on May 20th this year. 21km is almost the distance I drive to work every day. That scares the crap out of me.
Don't worry about me though - Can Too is helping to train my body and my mind to run the half marathon.
In return, I will raise valuable funds that go directly towards funding cancer researchers through Cure Cancer Australia.
I was first introduced to Can Too through my most awesome friend Anna-Louise.
For the last few years she has been raising funds for Cure Cancer
whilst doing 2km ocean swims in wild seas and running half marathons.
This year i finally gave in, and signed up for Can Too with her.
I was so nervous because i have never run further than 9km, but even though i am only
in my 4th week of training, i have every confidence that i will finish the entire 21km.
Everyone in my Can Too running group is so supportive and inspiring that it is very
difficult not to leave training smiling - even after running 4 or 5km in the pouring rain.
Below are some photos of my journey so far:
