Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. April 20, 2010. Well, you’ve probably all been on the edge of your seats awaiting the next exciting instalment of my journey to the London Marathon. Who’d have thought that this training malarkey would take up so much time? I’ve lost my thread, it’s been some weeks, let’s face it! Yes, when last I blogged, I regaled you with tales of my astounding success at the Sport Relief 10k. Yes, I came last! You’d think I’d be destro...I ran 20 ...

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. May 15, 2010. Inspired by a comment left by the lovely Susan (@marshklein) on my last blog post. I thought a postscript of sorts might be appropriate. Yes, the story of my marathon journey was a pretty jolly one, tinged with a little sadness and a lot of responsibility; I’d already talked about my reasons for running. On the eve of the Marathon. Do they mean that Ben McBean. What about my friend Angie. Who ran for Barnardos, in memory...

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. Archive for February, 2010. February 24, 2010. The story so far…. Money raised: 3,420. Fundraising Target: 7,000. What’s it all about? I never imagined for a second this time last year that I’d be running in the Virgin London Marathon. An idle comment to a good friend that went something like I’d like to run the London Marathon one day led to a response of Come on then, let’s sign up and enter . So we did. Sussex Beacon Half Marathon.

Pause for Thought |
https://runsqueezyrun.wordpress.com/2010/04/24/pause-for-thought
Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. April 24, 2010. Almost 12 months ago when my friend, the lovely L, persuaded me that it’d be a great idea to run the London Marathon, I never thought it would really happen. I’m always full of grand ideas that never come to fruition, but lo and behold the big day is almost here and I’m more nervous about getting there than getting round how silly is that? No problems, I’ll get a tea towel. Lassie’s drowning in the lake? With so much s...

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. Run, Squeezy, Run! May 14, 2010. This post is nearly as long as a marathon, so, as always, for your convenience, I have provided a handy synopsis at the end. Wake up raring to go, realise have woken up THREE HOURS TOO EARLY! Panic about not getting enough sleep. Panic about panicking about not getting enough sleep. Panic about panicking about panicking, oh, this could go on forever. Woken up by cat, cat not running London Marathon.

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner, or Yes, We Have No Bananas. March 1, 2010. You don’t have to read all of this, there’s a handy synopsis at the end. So, my lovely charity, Children with Leukaemia, invited all its Golden Bond runners for a jolly day out in London this weekend: Come to Hyde Park! How wrong I was! OK that’s an exaggeration, but you get the picture she had crap hair anyway). The vests are lovely but yellow does...

Unfinished Business |

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. March 27, 2010. For your convenience, all this is condensed into an informative and ramble-free synopsis at the end. Way back in October, having decided that I was going to run in the London Marathon, I thought it might be sensible to start participating in a few races. A nice easy 10k to begin with, I thought, 10k 10k’s not far, is it? Conditions for my first 10k were not ideal, unfortunately, I'd forgotten to pack my sou'wester.

Running, walking, jumping and bounding for charity in 2010 and beyond. The story so far…. February 24, 2010. So, I’ve been saying to myself since last November, Must set up a blog, must set up a blog . Well, it’s only taken me four months to pull my finger out! Training started back in November after a horrendously unsuccessful 10k run for Cancer Research – I realised that I’d have a lot of work to do if I wanted to get myself Marathon fit by 25. So, what have you missed? Then there was the day I discove...
