In training!!

I've entered the All Paws Mayorz Marathon and I thought you might like to see how my training is going. 

I'm number 12. Crikey ...... I hope that is a lucky number.  My lucky number is 13. Hey, Sugar ...... wanna swap numbers??????  No ..... I didn't think so .....  number 13 is special, aye???  I shouldn't need any luck anyway ..... I'm FAST!!  I can even beat my greyhound mates.  Solid muscle .... that's what I am!!  BUT that doesn't mean that I can be slack.  No ..... I'm in training ..... and training hard.  I hope all you other blokes and Sheilas out there are training hard too. Here's how mine's coming along ....... how's yours doin'???????????

Gotta work on my starts!!
The take off!!
I'm off .... note the angle of the tongue .... gotta get that right!!
how relaxed am I???
Flat out now!!
I see the finish line!!
And this is what I hope all you blokes and sheilas 'll be seein, aye????

Wanna run .... Love, Charlie.

      Crikey Sasha ... I'll be drinking lots of fresh water but I'll be holding off on the snacks till after the race.. Don't wanna weigh myself down. Your snacks are very tempting though. It will take all my willpower to say no!

      Whoops sorry Hera ...... I wouldn't be faster than a great champion like YOU!! I can't beat ALL greyhounds but I can beat my friend Izzi. We play and run together at my dog beach. I can beat her but she's VERY old now. I'm sure when she was 2 she would have outrun me for sure!! I do hope you will forgive me. I didn't mean to upset you!!!
