After signing up for the Birmingham Black Country Half Marathon on 1st July, I was perusing the Nuneaton Harriers’ website when I came across a request for athletes to take part in an inter-club event on Wednesday – this week.
I contacted the organiser and ask how she was fixed for the 1 Mile M50 walk (males over 50).
My offer was accepted so at five past eight this evening, I shall be lining up at Pingles Stadium in Nuneaton for a few laps of the track.
I did say that I wouldn’t be quick (out of practice) but at least I can earn a point (or more) for the club just by finishing.
Well, it looks like it’s all set for this evening.
As a bonus, Sue (my better half) has agreed to tag along and watch my triumphal return to race walking (or something like that!)
