Well, here we are again. So soon after the Great Oggie Run, and another little fundraiser popped into someone's mind. And here's the cunning thing - it doesn't even involve putting your trainers on. Even more cunningly, it does involve wine.
As you w...
From the four corners of our land, and over in the emerald isle, they ran. They ran, they walked, they planked, they press-up'd, they downed pints. They did so in unity with their kindred spirits. They did so with common cause. As had been said befo...
..are we nearly ready to rumble, folks? For most of us, that means run or walk. For one crazy man it means push up, plank, run, drink and God knows what else! Ah, but we're all doing it together, that's the main thing.
Are we all getting ready to rum...
Morning all.
A new month upon us, the joys of Autumn running are afoot. And, what's more, the Great Oggie Run 2014 is upon us.
You know the deal - it's our chance to run together, whether in person or metaphorically. We all don a colour, and we all do...
Us 'Buzzer's.
We're a team, right?
As a collective, wherever we are, whatever we are doing, up and down the land on September 7th, it's all going to be for little Louie.
But what if we could really come together as a team? How special would that be? Wha...
Hello all!
So, who remembers the Great Oggie Run of 2013? That wonderful day when, all over the country, people donned the orange of NASS, so favoured by the inspirational Bolty, and walked, jogged and ran all across these great islands of ours.
The ne...
If you look really closely you will see that the image below is not actually a photograph, it is infact an extremely lifelike image of the York Oggie running group on Sunday morning.
I tried to be organised on Sunday and brought along my camera to the s...
Blimey one and all. Didn't we just do it, and then some! And then some more.
And do you know what? This is just the beginning. From here, we build. From here, we take it forward.
Oh, the joy that we all had out running and walking yesterday. The c...
We met at 10 in front of the minster in beautiful warm sunshine - a quick photo to document it ( will pst it tomorrow as I've left my camera down at the shop ) and we set off.
Just four of us running but that didn't matter as my running companions were ...
What an impressive turn out!
We drove into the car park this morning wondering exactly where the meeting point would be.........no need to worry. the orange glow was visable from quite some distance! Marc Phillips and his hareem of 9, in excellent s...
Just over 24 hours to go, there is still time to join in. Just run on the day wherever you are and then tell us about it on here please. We all want to share in the experience so share your experience with us! Oh, and photo's would be good too, let's...
This is always my traditional eve of big race rallying call. OK, so it's not just for me this time round - well, it never is - but this time, more than any other, it's for us all.
Who's it for?
Well, I'll tell you. It's for everyone who helps support ...
So, folks, we're getting to the action end now.
Sorry for this being slightly brief, but it's the third time I've tried to upload it, having to retype each time. I keep getting all my alter egos confused, you see...
Anyway, have a look at the latest ...
Yes, folks. What timing! In the week of the Oggie Run in aid of NASS, our own (and, of course, NASS's own!) Berlin Bolt has his birthday.
Hopefully he won't shoot me for announcing it so publicly (well, Bolty, be careful what data you let Facebook hav...
...the band, I mean, of course - not the continent that these sceptred isles belong to!
Well, if you had a love of slightly bouffant'd hair and light metal guitar riffs, you'll remember their biggest hit (sadly, if you pushed me, I could name at least o...
Its only two and a bit weeks to the run known as Oggies Run on September 8th.
For those that don't already know, the idea is to get as many Realbuzzers running together on the same day across the UK. The distance is unimportant, just do whatever you can...

Remeber the idea is that on the 8th of September us fellow Real buzzers all run or walk together? It doesn’t matter where you run or how far you run – lets all just try and run on that day.

The venue is Verulamium park in St Albans, chosen as it has plentiful parking and is a short distance from a couple of railway stati...
For those of you who are up North and planning to run as part of the Realbuzz group run on 8th September in aid of our nominated NASS charity Angus has put together a proposed route for a York run.
Looks like a great route with options to suit all abi...
I am loving how the preparations for Oggie 8th of September are coming on and the team work in place to make this happen.
Remember the idea is simply that on the 8th of September Real buzzers from this site all go out for a run. Join an official event, ...
If runners supporing runners is the essence of our the 8th of September run - then this post is for hollywood Dave.
And a sentiment that roxy lives her life by
Morning all
Hope everyone had a great weekend. Roxy and I did a park run in St.Albans and then went up to watch the London Triathlon. I was very inspired but truly glad that I can only swim like a girl – so won’t be tempted to give that a go next year!...
