RUNNING MY FIRST EVER 10K...WHAT HAVE I DONE!? | COUCH TO 10K VLOG • Tom Watts

We need you to show your support for Tom from Tom & Claire, and our charity Global's Make Some Noise, as he attempts to run the Central Health Derby 10k!
Starting and finishing at Pride Park Stadium on Sunday 15th April, taking in Derby city centre's best known landmarks, it's going to be a real challenge for Tom.
He'll be the first to admit he's not built for long-distance running - you're definitely more likely to find him on FIFA, than a treadmill - he needs all the support he can get!
Support Tom by donating to Global's Make Some Noise now!
Track how Tom's 'Couch To 10k' training has gone below, but if he hates running so much, why's he doing it!?
Tom: "The death of someone very close to us is probably the hardest thing to deal with as an adult, but it must be so much tougher as a kid. That's where the Children's Bereavement Centre comes in - they're just one of the amazing projects supported by Global's Make Some Noise."
Click the link above to donate online, text TOM5 to 70766 to donate £5 or TOM10 to 70766 to donate £10. 100% of your donation will go to Global’s Make Some Noise. If you’re under 16, make sure you ask the bill payer’s permission first. Standard network charges may apply. Ts&Cs are at makesomenoise.com.
Training started really well for Tom but trailed off a bit, so with a couple of weeks to go, Claire stepped in to 'help'...
