You can't delegate getting fit!

Charity projects are a great way to engage employees and do your bit in giving something back to the community. So three of us from 3C are joining the Race for Life in aid of Cancer Research this year. However, having agreed to do this, I have discovered

You can't delegate getting fit!

 

Having not run since doing a cross country race at school age 13 (and I didn't like it then), my running expertise is sadly lacking. In addition, I now have a son aged 13 – which will indicate to the mathematically inclined that the aforesaid cross country expedition was some time ago. So, what do you do when you can't delegate:

 

We've got some SMART goals

Namely, to run 5km on July 13 th at 4pm in Reading and raise at least £ 1,000 doing it. We haven't set ourselves a time target yet, our first aim is simply to be sure we can finish.

You might have a similar feeling - when all that matters is getting to the end of the day and actually achieving anything is of secondary importance.

 

We've got a training plan

We have started running twice a week on the towpath in Henley – along with a structured plan to build up both stamina and speed.

Apparently we have very easy initial sessions (at least everyone else seems to think its easy). I am beginning to ponder the true meaning of Achievable in terms of goals.

 

We are training together

Or frankly I know I wouldn't do it

 

We are communicating

Got some great T-shirts.

 

Can you do your bit?

Sponsor us at www.raceforlifesponsorme.org/heddabird. We want to raise £ 1000 so please help.

 

And in other news : WE HAVE MOVED

…to beautiful new offices in the centre of Henley .

We have a new main number 01491 411 544.

Fortunately I could delegate most of the moving stuff to Jan, our long suffering book keeper. Jan has been having some unbelievably bad customer service experiences with a well known national telecoms company – but that's another story.

 

Meanwhile back on the towpath, if anyone has discovered how to delegate getting fit, I'd love to hear from you.
