Rambling Thoughts and Other Stuff...: September 2014
http://loreewestron.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Rambling Thoughts and Other Stuff. To do with books, creative writing and doing a PhD. Tuesday, 2 September 2014. In an effort to see how writers have succeeded in gaining my attention, I have looked at the openings to a random selection of some of my favourite pieces of literature. I’ve included novels, short fiction and one example of non-fiction to help me pinpoint what it was that encouraged me to keep reading. Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy (novel). Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey (autobiography).

Suze's Witterings: June 2014
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Thursday, June 12, 2014. I'm writing about recent runs in reverse order. In early March, I ran in the Surrey Half marathon: Guildford to Woking and back. It was the first time this event had been held and it went very well. The route starts at the Spectrum Leisure centre, heads north along country lanes to Woking and back again. We met the elite runners on their journey back to the Spectrum when we had reached mile 4! That's a reflection of their speed, not mine.

A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Wednesday, July 02, 2014. Are there more days between 1 January and 30 June than between 1 July and 31 December? I'll leave you pondering that. Regardless, let's conclude that we are half way through the year. So, last year I ran a total of 200k. That 200k can be broken down into:. 23 runs at an average distance of 8.7k and an average pace of 6 minutes 36 seconds. Most runs were from home but others took me to Oxford, Jersey and the Reading half marathon. Bright Bear the P...
