Run Twenty-Two: 40 Minutes!

40 minutes and a bit...

Post-run smoothie

So, we didn't get to do the parkrun on Saturday because it just would not stop raining, grr. Instead we got up early on Sunday to do our scheduled 40 minute run! This is only my second 40 minute run and it is the longest I have ever run for. It felt as gruelling as last time. We ran to Finchley Park and back and both felt exhausted when we got home. A banana and cinnamon post-run smoothie seemed to do the trick and we both agreed we felt a lot more alert and ready to face the day from doing it.

Next run: 25 minute easy jog on Tuesday

About Me

Rose Thompson | MA Student | Living in London

My Dad and I will be running the London Marathon in April for Macmillan Cancer Support. In the last few months two family friends lost their fight with Cancer and we are going to run the marathon for them and for the families they have left behind. Macmillan nurses are not just there for those diagnosed with cancer, they are also there to help the families who have to deal with the loss of the most important people in their lives.

We are all affected by cancer and we can all help. If you can donate £1 or £100. If you can sell something you no longer want on ebay and donate the profit. If you can bake some cupcakes, do a sponsored naked cycle, skydive, swimathon, whatever, every little helps. My dad and I are going to try and do our little bit, 26 miles and 385 yards to be exact and we would really love your support.

This is for you Alyson and you Graeme. And for you Grandma, because although I was only little when you went, it doesn't get any easier.

Please help us improve the lives of those living with cancer.
