My running goals for 2014

Last year, I had one main goal for my running - to get my PB for Hilly Fields Parkrun (5k) under 30 minutes. I managed that, and got it down to under 26 minutes in a lung-bursting Parkrun in November. My goals for 2014 are threefold:

1. Get my Hilly Fields Parkrun PB under 25 minutes (done it!).
2. Complete the Bupa 10,000 in under an hour (safe target) or under 55 minutes (slightly more adventurous target).
3. Get around the Royal Parks Half Marathon without dying.

Closer to the time I might set myself a time-target for the Royal Parks, but for now I'll just be happy to complete it, as it will be easily the furthest I've ever run.

My other goal for this year is to raise £1,000 for The Sick Children's Trust while challenging myself in this way. For now, here's my Just Giving page: https://www.justgiving.com/Sam-Runs-2014
