I awoke feeling particularly groggy yesterday morning and sat nursing first one, then another cup of quadspresso before I could smile enough to go out into the garden.
I had intended to get out for an early run before the heat of the day started to ramp up, but alas, it was already 8am and about 70 [...]
Observant readers will have realised that the East coast to which I have referred in the last few posts is not in the UK. Geographically it is probably closer to the Eastbourne that Captain Daren has sailed off so comprehensively.
As I boomeranged back to the UK from my time away, I managed to catch up with Kim in Dubai [...]
Sad to report that it’s my final week up here on the east coast.
I have done so little exercise whilst eating SO much that I MUST now be heavy (yeah, right!), whilst a litle mental & physical tiredness mixed with more than a little conversational wine has left me feeling weak more than once!
I swung a couple [...]
I must have got a taste for not running last week as I managed to do a little more no running again this week. There was unfortunately no cycling this weekend by way of exercise, but I did manage to get an upper body workout… otherwise known as driving a LandRover about 20km along a beach [...]
I was disappointed this week that I not only didn’t manage to run, but that I also didn’t manage to run with Daren on Thursday morning… because I had a scheduled a meeting earlier than I had remembered. I’m hoping that he’s going to share the route with me though so that I too can run [...]
Well now! This time tomorrow, we will all hopefully be in the closing stages of the inaugural Brighton Marathon and if the weather is a facsimile of today, it’s going to be a fantastic run!
I thought I would unveil my running gear (my thanks to Matt Ingram at Sussex Sign Centre) in advance in case anyone wants to [...]
Some readers will be pleased to know my legs still ache from my Sunday run. No [...]
The glory of the snow is starting to fade as the thaw gets underway, but I took the enclosed photos when it was still fresh last week. Enjoy!
And my favourite, for [...]
I appear to have taken two weeks off running since running with Phil. This started when I inadvertently managed to poison myself, probably with some blue cream-cheese, resulting in me being horizontal for 36 hours and effectively out of action for a good week. Hence me not making it to a couple of the more boozy [...]
I know that my parents and my uncle Roy will all want to know the route of our travels around France, so I enclose a quick guided tour… on the basis that I can never remember the names of places when people ask me, as has already happened this morning!
The general idea was for Kim and [...]
