And finally....
Oct0520069:33 a.m.
Done my first post GNR run - a nice easy 4 miles with Gill and Pauline yest morning followed by bacon butties and reminiscing .... plus excitedly finding our photos on marathon photo site. I didnt have any last year at all , and only 2 this year - something to do with not being very tall perhaps ( always hidden behind other people!) - anyway if you want a gander my no was 33001.
And what next - just some easy runs for next 2w and then I guess its start my marathon training, and judging by how tired i felt immed. post GNR I have q a bit of work to do! Will be moving over to FLM site in time so hopefully catch up with some of you there!
Incidentally, I am running in FLM for a small charity ( Circulation Foundation ) with only 6 places. I believe they still have one or two not taken so if interested look them up - cant remember web address off top of my head but can google it.
And finally - a HUGE thankyou to you all - I have never blogged before (and to be honest thought bloggers were prob a bit sad! ) - but I have got so much help , encouragement, inspiration and laughter that I am converted!
Good luck to you all in whatever you do next - take carexx
