It is 6.44am Wednesday 25th November and I'm in for my second bite at the cherry. Over the next 5 months I am going to experience that amazing journey again. So what now... well before I crack on with a training plan, schedule, target times etc I need to take stock... I've put a few pounds back on since last time and been a bit lazy.... how long until I feel like a proper runner again...... I am mega excited.... only fair that this time I set a new target of sponsorship or £1500. Only way I'll achieve that is with some creativity though... no more person to person begging.... we are talking corporate and event driven fund raising..... I can't wait.. And if you thought my musically inspired blog was bad last time around... you ain't seen nothing yet.... ;)

Right, I have my new trainers (why do they have to cost £75?) and I now have my first training run in the bank. I scheduled 2miles and ran 3.5 (well walked about .5 of it. But still, considering I'm going down with some sort of illness, that rocks
Am sl...
Going down the only road I've ever known...
Today is a first, the first time I have repeated a song in my blogging, you see thie thing is it works on many levels.
The song fits firstly, I am back again, embarking on a 5 month schedul...
...and a voice keeps saying, this is where I'm meant to be.
I'll be there someday, i can go the distance, i can find my way, if I can be strong.
Ok, enough Michael Bolton. I'm back with a vengeance, who will be the first to add to my ...
Ok so its all done now.... I have run the marathon and am very pleased...
But it's not all over... I have simply moved to a new home... why not read and subscribe to "I don't suffer from Insanity, I love every minute (Part 2)" which i...
Yes I swear, its the truth, and I owe it all to you......
I did it, after all those months of preparation, the ups and downs (and I don't just mean the hill work) and becoming a "real-boy" in much more than the pinocchio sense, I fina...
Woo... the expo was so much fun... and I met and spent the day with the Maestrodude which was also very exciting. I honestly thought that as I got older and approached 26-27 I'd stop behaving like a kid in a sweet shop (nearly said candystore the...
Come on something, I don't know what it is, but it is, coming to me.........................
Ok, West Side Story today, a tad random, but its what seemed right.
No run today, but did attend football training for an hour......
...It's my problem free, philosophy
HAKUNA MATATA!
I apologise realbuzziites for my lack of communication in the last week. Truth be told I had a hectic week at work last week (lat week of term) and also haven't run for 9 days d...
One reason, I played this song in Year 11 lesson today, for added motivation, and yes, its old school but you can't help but dance... download it, buy it, whatever.. but this is PROPER motivation music.
Oh and also, I wan't to clear m...
14 days is close enough for it all to start seeming very real. I'm actually quite relaxed today. Having had a perhaps prolonged but definitely deserved 5 day rest period to recover fully from the 20 miles I was out on a 9 miler today. I plan to r...
Not quite, should read lean on things, I was fine yesterday until my sixth form class period 4 when suddenly all sorts of cramps and interesting pain appeared... and it is still here.
Am hoping to go for some form of recovery run toni...
...but what about the 20 miles that just nearly DID kill me huh? Yeah, you sit there writing your positivity saturated song lyrics, not a thought to us runny people (not runny as in liquid... I believe it hasn't taken so much out of me that I hav...
Today's (Saturday's) run really was a coming-of-age experience. I thought I'd mentally experienced quite a bit in all my training but 8 miles in temperatures approaching absolute zero, with hail, sleet, snow and other weather types whipping acros...
.....I'll be ready (I'll be ready)....
Now the more astute/psychologically scarred among you may well recognise the lyrics of the theme tune to Baywatch. Don't know where it came from but as I drove to the start of my LOOOOOOOOONG run...
Not a big post as I meant to post this yesterday after my run. My longer post will be todays one in a minute.
Bought some new shoes finally... bought the Saucony Omni, they were the next up in terms of foot support and I know I get on...
A lyric from a great musical which I'm dying to see in London soon... maybe once my negative association with the streets of London disappates... maybe November?
Great run yesterday, really enjoyed it. Possibly best 8 miler I have eve...
I found this lyric so apt to my state of mind this week that I actually chuckled out loud on my run.
My Marathon pack arrived this week and it's all becoming very real. I'm excited but very scared and completely terrified of injury. N...
A very difficult experience today, but one that has made me very determined.
Had 16 miles to run and so, like an idiot, I went to a Salsa club from 9 till 1 last night and danced the night away until my legs ached. I felt fresh enough...
A rather obscure lyric I know, but very relevant, especially considering the film the song comes from.
Now this post may well be long, in fact I quite expect to have to seek refreshment during the writing of it, but I have much to say...
This post is necessarily brief.... I will write a much longer one later explaining my lack of recent posts....
Why am I nervous??
Well, I've got a train to catch to Reading... I hope there are no delays
Now there's a specific reason for todays lyric, as, not only does it fit my run this evening (more on that to follow), but also a guy was singing the song at Salsa last night when I walked past him and its been in my head on the run.

Ok, so nothing happened to day, but I'm blogging it because its so bloody addictive.
I send one ridiculous post (which I must add, caused me no end of amusement, that's how sad I really am) saying that I'm not going to post on my blog...
As today is a rest day (other than a cup semin-final which we won 5-1 - in the final on Tuesday week - woo!) I have decided that I won't post on my blog today.
Sorry guys but when I'm not running, very little else happens in my life

Today is the turn of Mr R Kelly... I pushed my boundaries even further and really feel like the World's Greatest.
Not sure how much of a post I will produce as I am EXHAUSTED... but in a good way. Oooooooh! HOT CROSS BUNS! Be right ba...
