The racecard has finally come through! It's very exciting, especially as I'm number one on the card. Hopefully that's a good omen - just don't forget the number for when you go to the bookies!!
I haven't personally met any of the other charity riders yet, but one of them, Rodger Sargent, sounds like a lot of fun! Love his racecard bio:
"Rodger’s best moment of his life (so far) was winning the 2004 Mildmay of Flete with Tikram. He used to weigh 17 1/2 stone with a 42 inch waist and his aim is to get back to that after today. He was dragged off backwards by a running rail around his neck in his debut charity race in 2004 where he skidded 50 yards to a muddy halt at Market Rasen."
Back to the gym in earnest for this last week; up early to the gym for a 4k run and free weight training. Arms like jelly at the moment! Not long to go.
