I decided I need a fitness goal to work towards (the goal being one of the reasons this diet has worked for me so far), so I decided to investigate a local run and emailed them, mentioned my weight at the start of the year and that I've lost loads and need a fitness challenge.
Anyway, I received this reply:
I've just emailed him to put myself forward!
OMG
What am I doing lol
I hope they accept me, this would be brilliant!

On another note, you may be the type of newcomer, with a gaol, I am looking for.
I have a column in the Evening Gazette in the run up to the September, Middlesbrough 10K.
I normally take a Gazette reporter, who is a couch potatoe and coach them to run the Middlesbrough event.
This year we advertised for members of the public, who were totally unfit, not sports minded but would like to change their life
style. We short listed a man and three women, and I took them under my wing. They are now known as Team Tees Pride.
They have competed in two 10K races, including the Middlesbrough goal race and several Albert Park 5Ks.
Their next goal, because they have all got the bug, is the Redcar half marathon, next April and a marathon, within
another 8 months of the half. They have all become very good friends. The guy, was 19 stone when he started
he has lost three stone already
Presently, I am speaking to all four, local Primary Care Trusts, with a view to them coming on board, helping to kit
four new, four person teams, aiming at the April Hartlepool Marina 5 mile, Tees Barrage 10K, Victorian 10K and
2010 Middlesbrough 10K, as well as other races.
I will require four people from Middlesbrough, four from Hartlepool, four from Redcar & Cleveland and four from Stockton.
If you fall into any of these area's and would like to get involved, IF a deal is agreed, please let me have a brief bio, age, sex,
sporting (if any) history address, contact telephone number and why you want to take up such a challenge.
