A reluctant runner: Kit and tips for the Marathon des Sables
http://reluctant-runner-2009.blogspot.com/p/kit-and-tips-for-marathon-des-sables.html
Kit and tips for the Marathon des Sables. As is traditional on websites such as this, here are a few hints and tips for what to expect on the MdS. For my write-up of the 2010 event, see here. I used the Mountain King. Pre-blister taping: I tried this a few times in the UK before heading out to Morocco. It’s very worthwhile. I used Mefix. To stop your feet cracking. Use Doc Trots when you’ve got bigger blisters or a few at a time. They’ll give you gauze and awesome stuff to tape up afterwa...My basic plan...

A reluctant runner: Castéra-Lectourois
http://reluctant-runner-2009.blogspot.com/2009/08/castera-lectourois.html
Locals, since the village fete was on. This involved losing at boules. To some grizzled pétanque veterans, followed by dinner in the school playground with a few hundred French types, who entertained themselves and us in truly inimitable fashion. God knows where they all came from - French Wikipedia suggests that Castéra-Lectourois. Only has a population of about 300! No more holidays planned for 2009, for anyone who's getting envious! It does seem as though I've been away a lot this year for some reason.

0882- Day 2 - reality sets in. First of all, thanks to those who emailed - your thoughts are (mostly) very much appreciated, though if you want to annoy me with stories of 9-course tasting menus, Easter eggs, roasts or steak, Id probably wait until later in the event.

Liska Life: Back with a tan, and half a stone slimmer
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/08/hi-all-i-got-back-wednesday-evening-but.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Sunday, 9 August 2009. Back with a tan, and half a stone slimmer. I got back Wednesday evening but was so so sleep deprived going on the computer was the last thing on my mind. There was a train strike so I had to be up for work at 5 am Thursday and Friday (and after getting up at 4 or 3.30 at the festival.). We had glorious weather. Must have been 30 degrees every day - see the photo. A lesso...

Liska Life: Recap on the day
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/06/recap-on-day.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Tuesday, 30 June 2009. Recap on the day. I had a relatively healthy day. Had a cappuccino on the way to work but I figure I am off them from 1st July. As my alchemy of turning coffee into circuits twice a week starts tomorrow. At work I had my usual porridge. And nothing apart from a handful of nuts until lunchtime which was later than normal. Liska Life (off to bed). PS the soup contained:.

Liska Life: Opening UP
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/06/opening-up.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Saturday, 27 June 2009. I normally "sleep in" on Saturday and Sunday, but today, I was in the Supermarket at 8 am Victor and his lovely wife Emma, and two gorgeous daughters were due to arrive at 11 am and I wanted to make them a beautiful dinner. I was up at 6, as even though I had a half day off work Thursday, still more housework needed to be done. I always either work hard, or. I LOVE how ...

Liska Life: The reason for my silence :-)
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/11/reason-for-my-silence.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Saturday, 21 November 2009. The reason for my silence :-). We are pregnant :-). So now you know what I have been up to the last few weeks. Lots and lots of early nights and not much time on the computer. Been busy growing our little bean. This scan was done 19th November (Thursday) when s/he was 11 weeks 3 days and measuring 2 inches head to "rump". Bye for now,. Liska (excited and pregnant).

Liska Life: Today's progress - get back on the horse tomorrow
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/06/todays-progress-get-back-on-horse.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Tuesday, 23 June 2009. Today's progress - get back on the horse tomorrow. So I started the day with porridge (which I think I forgot to mention on yesterday's post). Yesterday I had the porridge at home, but then also had a bowl of fruit salad (as a 2nd breakfast when I got to work). But today I had nothing at home, and had porridge with Victor at work, when I got in. So I thought @£$K! I feel...

Liska Life: Krakow
http://liskalife.blogspot.com/2009/08/krakow.html
For 2009, it is all about weight loss, and feeling vital, energetic, healthy and ALIVE! I wish you all the same. Wednesday, 26 August 2009. In the absence of any decent photos (my digital is broken) I am uploading a not so good one, so you have an image of me in a Shopping Centre in Krakow :-). I did go back to the old days, and resorted to buying a disposable camera, but have not had those developed yet, so this is from my BlackBerry :-). Yes, photos developed, doesn't that sound quaint. Thank you, than...
