AFTER years of promising myself I would take part, on Sunday I finally completed the Great North Run.
On my first year of asking I managed to get an entry and made the trip 'Op North' for the Run between Newcastle and South Shields.
Now when I say I ran it, that isn't strictly true, I actually walked it. Due to a few injuries over the past few months I was by no means fit enough to run it so I decided to walk it instead, and I have to say I don't think I did too badly for to complete 13.1 miles in 3 hours 46mins and 55 seconds.
And yes I was talking part on behalf of a charity, that of CAFOD (Catholic Agency for Overseas Development) and while I am not a catholic myself I still believe the cause if worthwhile in helping those in the developing world.
And yes I am still collecting sponsors, so if your interested no matter how much you can still sponsor me at http://www.justgiving.com/nicolagale
