Uh oooooh.
I may or may not be doing the 9mile Sodbury Slog (through bogs) in November. I'd best get my running shoes back on... I will drown otherwise!! /scared |

 I did the Bristol 10k last weekend which was good fun - much much more training required for future though as I crossed the line in 61 minutes which is slow. Slow or not though it was a non-stop run and highlights included being overtaken by a girl in a giant banana costume, and seeing someone vomit from the bridge onto crowds below.  Good atmosphere on the day and lots of friends and family both competing and cheering  Been out twice this week - one for 5.4miles which was 52 minutes and this morning just for the sake of going out 2.1m in 20 minutes which wasn't too bad cosidering that contained a half mile hill More races to come this year as and when I get chance to organise things

Yeh Jingo, tis going to be utterly killing! Well done on your 10k!
And Mei mei - damn right! Hahaha! I will coming out looking like a bog monster I am sure!! Went for a run yesterday and did 5miles. 2miles was a beach run. That... was hell! Ended up part walking for a minute at one point.. strangely on the road run bit. I'm a dinosaur when I run so think road running is poop for me! Will keep training on beaches so I get used to working against the pressure of sand and what! |

Windermere marathon - DONE!!!
Not sure of the time as my watch battery died but I think I got sub 4:30 which I'm well chuffed with given that I've done naff all training. Very pleased indeed BLOODY hard race though

Way to go! If I tried to do a flat marathon with no training you'd see me crawling over the line after about 8 hours if at all. Though I do think your 'no training' differs from the rest of us somewhat :P

Well done Kate
I went out and did about 2.5k yesterday and it killed. Feels so good though. Muscles aching this morning which is reassuring. My legs are very weak though. Heart and lungs seem to be able to keep up but my legs won't hold me up for much longer than a slow 5k by the feel of it. Got some work ahead of me to get back where I was.
