Kilomathon Reflections...
Hey, it was great and I'm not just saying it. I really loved it, even going to Derby but next time I might get a train...
I would recommend doing Kilomathon because it's just that bit more testing (at least for me) than a half. I really enjoyed the experience especially as it was Nottingham and all the stuff around that...
However, I am suffering. I am walking today and I tried some mini-fartlek tonight but it was still painful and I have backed off any proper running. I'm eating co-codamol which is good but bad - I'm turning into Nurse Jackie and using the rub. Someone at work today told me he'd just qualified in massage and I was keen but he didn't have his table.
So a few days without a proper run. This leaves me frustrated and I keep having moments where I doubt if I can do April 25th. I am however, still determined to try my best. Trying to be fit for Sports Relief but I can at least console myself that I have tickets for United/LFC after...
Alzheimer's want to talk about my Dad, maybe doing an article- I'm thinking about it but it is a bit painful of late, I really miss him. Fundraising is going a bit better and I want to do as much as I can...
Keep on you and talk to you soon...

jamieB 'I too have tried many too. By far the best is Sainsbury's Gluten Free/Free From Rice & Buckwheat porridge. It takes time to get it right but I find a good handful plus a lot of milk, 120 seconds in the microwave plus lots of honey, gets the best result.' added 17th Mar 2010

tinabee 'Poor old knee. Really hope that a few days rest does it good. The camber on some of the roads on Sunday were pretty tough on the knees and ankles I thought. I am sure you will complete VLM - you have the determination to succeed!' added 18th Mar 2010
