Races, races, races!

My goal for the C25K was always to do the Race for Life. I never thought I'd be able to run 5k ever. Now I can and I've registered for Hastings with some colleagues! A friend of mine has recently started her C25K and will graduate in March just before the Sport Relief run in Brighton - so we're doing that together now as well! I've already hit my halfway sponsorship target so pretty chuffed about that. Yesterday I was reading Alexandra Hemingsley's (Hemmo) blog and she mentioned the Electric Run (she then answered my Tweet so I'm suffering from hero-worship right now!). I looked it up and it looks AWESOME! Has anyone else seen it? You run at night in glo-bands and it's all lit up and everything! I LOVE running in the dark. Right up my street. It's quite expensive to enter but I'm really tempted. Trouble is, I'm still fighting the dodgy hip. Maybe I should wait till after my first physio appointment tomorrow to see what they say. Wannadoit!

Jenwrenarm I saw this on The Living Social website for London. You know the ones like Groupon? It says it's £29 with a VIP package to race in London on 26th April. Looks amazing.

It does doesn't it? That's a good price. Have to look into that! On their website it's about £37!

Oooooh Hemmo, get you!!!! I think an electric run sounds fab. Go for it!

[Jenwrenarm Graduate in reply to Rockette]

I know! I was beyond chuffed! I did tweet back again but that was pushing my luck and then I felt pathetic I know the run you mean; I think that was a proper night-time hill run he did. This one has all different zones that you run through all lit up and everything! There are different locations across the country. Worth a look mate! Thanks Rockette. Hopefully know tomorrow why I'm struggling.

Good luck tomorrow Jen

That looks really good fun (unfortunately not near me), hope you get to do it. That's so uncanny about Hemmo's tweet, I bought her book today in waterstones and the young woman assistant told me it's her favourite book and that she had replied to her tweet too - really nice to read of someone who is successful but doesn't forget her fans.

Electric run looks awesome, I may have to arrange a girly weekend with some mates.
