The likelyhood of me actually getting through is very low and i’ve been playing on the wii fit to get fitter and so far can do the jogging thing for the first few levels without stopping after 1 minute.

It seems to help me with balance, and co-ordination. I’m using every few days trying some of the games and the jogging but havent tried it elsewhere yet. I must look very strange jogging inside on the spot if anyone looked through a window.

In february sometime I’ll find out if I got into the great north run and to be honest I’m not sure if i’ll be ready.

I know its a low chance and would probably be better off going for it next year. However IF I get through it will give me an aim and a lot of motivation as wouldn’t want to let people down.

So here I plod on…
