    Well its been ages since I last blogged on here, as I have been blogging on facebook so I can keep everyone who as sponerd me up to date its lorraines london marathon challange. Training been going realy well, did my longest run to date on tuesday of 19 miles in 3h'4mins was tough , been doing my long runs on my own so I keep telling myself if can run that distance on my own then the crowds and the atmosphere should help me reach the finish line, cant wait for april 22nd, just need to book hotel now, left it till last min but glad i have as was coming down with family and it was working out a fortune, managed to meet a lady in the gym who is going down on her own or was , so were going down together, bit sad that the kids wnt be at the finish line, so will have to try and get on tv.
    Wish you all good luck for the big day and the rest of your training xx

    Managed my longest run to date yesterday 14.16 miles in 2h:11mins . Set of on a route what thought would be that distance, but it was just over 12 so did some hill training near home as there was no way I was going home till I had done 14m , and the weather was perfect yesterday realy enjoyed it. Done 34m in total this week , Happy Training everone.

      13 mile last night , and starting to feel ok with this distance with the help of Haribo sweets, much better than the gels and a lot easer to open. short run planned for tmoz and then going to do 10 mile friday day off. Think I may look in to joining running club now the dark nights are here dont want to have to go on treadmill, you cant beat being out doors.
