My last post ever............on this blog anyways

Apr22200910:35 p.m.

Good luck to friends old and new and all the very best to everyone running on Sunday, I hope you know how lucky you are! The many who didn't get in or like me are injured and deferred wish we were there with you!

Its time to start a fresh for me and after 374 posts, 3464 comments (the first by one Rachel Townend on 13/09/06) its time to stop posting here and transfer to my new blog "53 weeks in the making" blog, all set up for when the 2010 thread opens.

What do I hope for over the next few months? To run, walk or even crawl the 2010 London Marathon.

Maybe meet some bloggy pals again in the process?

Lose 3 stone in weight

Run Reading next year? Maybe Run a Half in Blackpool and meet Judith?

Just being able to run without pain or limping around for several days afterwards would be nice!

Not rupturing my achilles tendon but maybe getting a new one for Christmas would be also be nice!

GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL ON SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!! and good bye blog, you have served me well.

Ruddy

  • kizzi10000 'Good luck for 2010! You and me both keeping fingers crossed. Would love to see you at Reading too. Really hope you get running properly soon. How about we set a challenge - the first one to lose 3st (in my case, another 3st)?Will have to think up a good incentive. Don't forget to post a link to the new blog. Will be moving mine over to join it in the 2010 slot.' added 23rd Apr 2009

  • alijwhelan 'Hopefully we'll both be there for 2010 and hopefully both be a little lighter - I'm aiming for 2 stone, so will be thinking of you as I avoid the never ending supply of cakes that seem to appear in our office. Hope Santa turns up trumps on the achilles front! Will see you in the 2010 blog.' added 23rd Apr 2009
