British Heart Foundation: Running my little heart out.

So, I will be running in the 10km Hyde Park jog on Wed 13th April. As part of my life challenges to run and complete a marathon, I've set some smaller milestones to gradually build up the fitness and running experience in attaining my fitness goal.

So, whilst I can't advocate that living on a pound a day is a reasonable approach in healthy living, taking the time to consider the foods you consume on a daily basis could very well be of great benefit.
Thusly, the British Heard Foundation (BHF) has organised a series of jogs in order to raise awareness of heart disease. Check out the site if you are keen to know more about the charity.

The British Heart Foundation is Britain’s leading charity fighting heart and circulatory disease – the UK’s biggest killer. The BHF funds research, education and life-saving equipment and helps heart patients return to a full and active way of life. The charity relies on donations to continue its vital work.

If you are interested in contributing to this charity do get in touch with me and I'll endeavor to arrange for means to get your donation.

Realizing my 2010 Goals.

We all love to set personal goals. It gives us a sense of purpose and direction. I'm no different and instead of setting a New Year's resolution goal immediately after post festivities that herald the new year, I've managed to have a good hard think about what my future endeavours will be.

The goals for me to achieve for this year 2010 are as follows:
To set and complete my photography objectives and fulfil my aspirations in being a paid photographer.
Create and complete a social task/challenge that is rewarding not only for myself but beneficial to others.
To improve fitness and compete(and complete)in a marathon(42km)

I intend to go further with follow-up posts regarding each goal, breaking them down into quantifiable and specific components. This will make objectives less ambiguous and provide a finish line to know that such tasks have been completed. I've stuck to three which I believe challenge a person in the areas of mental, social and physical states.

Some may feel it somewhat absurd to broadcast these goals to the gargantuous black hole that is the Internet, but in doing so I am publicly encouraging any of YOU to challenge ME on my commitment in achieving my goals and not being distracted by the old women who offer us candy and often leading us astray. Drop me a comment at anytime to ask questions / give advice / prod me along. God knows that I'm going to need it to stay focused.

So let's rock this year out!
