We are Team Hocking!

Team Hocking consists of Rosie, Hannah, Sarah, Tom and Debs and on the 26th April 2009 we will be running the Flora London Marathon for the Parkinson's Disease Society.

Why are we doing this? Well our Dad has had Parkinson's Disease for 22 years. This is a progressive neurological disease and its effects mean that Dad now requires full time care. The Parkinson's Disease Society has provided our family with a lot of support and information over the years and so this is our way  of giving something back.

6 weeks to go!

Silverstone Half Marathon down, just the big one to go! Debs and I tried out our run walk strategy for the race and aimed for less than 3 hours.  We kept strictly to 10 mins run, 5 mins walk all the way round and did it in 2.41 which was great. Having done very little if any training we were a bit stiff at the end but OK!
