More no running

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 [...]

Sharing

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 [...]

Good Luck Marathoners

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 [...]

No run today

Some readers will be pleased to know my legs still ache from my Sunday run. No running today!

Pretty pics

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 its sheer broodiness…

Two weeks off

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 [...]

The great French getaway!

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 [...]

Floor idea

I’m quite aware that there’s a big chunk of time missing from the blog at the moment… in fact, there’s been a total absence of running going on and precious little other exercise too, on account of our having been AWAY!

After a couple of weeks with temperatures in the 70′s and 80′s in sunny [...]

Now I know

A few weeks ago I pondered why everyone else seemed able to swim faster than me, before realising I could actually keep up with them if I crawled, like them.  Tonight there was a guy that I don’t think I could have kept up with even if I had been running.  

Towards the end [...]

Last weekend you trecked
