Birmingham half marathon….

As a company www.cruise.co.uk staff are competing in the Birmingham Half Marathon on the 21st October.  At the moment it looks like majority of the staff have said yes, it’s going to be interesting to see how many drop out when the training starts.  I love running, but have never really considered taking part in a marathon, but I have to say I am really excited.  I try to run at least 3 times a week and anything between 5 and 8 miles, I have done a few 10 mile runs but never 13 miles. Training has now started for me, I will let you know how I am getting on.

You can imagine what we are like in the office at the moment, all are either on a diet, starting a mad fitness regime, and a few are even giving up smoking!

Andrew Gardner our chairman is also taking part, the last time he competed the half marathon was 30 years ago, but he is no stranger to training and being disciplined as last year Andrew and his family climbed Mount Kilimanjaro.

We are also considering running for a charity, I will keep you updated on this.

Wish us luck!!!
