About Me

For years I insisted to friends that I'd run The London Marathon one day. (Usually between gulps of lager and mouthfuls of pie) I won a ballot place for VLM12 and began training in October 2011. I was 42, 16st+ and couldn't run half a mile. At the start of 2012 I am a stone lighter, can run a few miles and am embarking on a 16 week training plan, which I hope will get me round the course before the pubs shut.

Reason for Joining

To record the ups and downs of my quest for fitness and to benefit from the knowledge of other (proper) runners.
