Hi guys !! Fit4life and wife "bridged" today at approximately 09:24 BST !!! After last sunday,s 8K effort we knew we were in touching distance and today notched up our first 10K !! With more left in the tank after finishing this morning we were convinced we had done the right thing by upping our distance by the extra 2K .As our B,ham 10K run falls on May 26th ,we now have opportunity for a further 5 consolidation runs at the distance which gives us great encouragement for our charity run !!

Please sir , may I have my badge sir ? Lol !!!
