42k and beyond: Striding Out
http://richardmerry.blogspot.com/2011/04/striding-out.html
Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Monday, 4 April 2011. But, as promised, here is my review of the new Polaroid Strider Sunglasses. All in all a very good product that can be used for more than just running and riding and sports, and looking just as cool being worn out and about in the park etc (cool if worn by someone better looking than me that is).

42k and beyond: April 2011

Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Monday, 18 April 2011. Will I ever race again! Another couple of very hectic weeks have passed and running again has bit the bullet. Since my last post I have been offered a new job, based in Docklands in London, starting on May 6th, with Nuplex Resins Ltd – all very exciting and an extremely good career move and more responsibility, however I will miss my current employer, Wilkin and Sons AKA Tiptree Jam. So that’...

JohnnyUltra's Blog: November 2012
http://johnnyultra.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Welcome to my blog. This is where you can keep track of my. Training and races as I build up to Spartathlon and Badwater. Saturday, 3 November 2012. My 10k training - all about the speed. What a refreshing change it is to train for a 10k after several years doing loads of long runs. On Sunday 25th November I'll be running the Movember 10k at Greenwich Park and I'm going to try and win it! It started about a month or so ago after I got back from Ibiza (not a lot of point starting before then! 1 Tempo run&...

Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Saturday, 17 November 2012. Quite a lot has happened since the last post and although Brentwood didnt happen due to a combination of a business trip to Turkey (10 hours of flights and only 6 daytime hours n the country) and a chest infection the week before the race all other events are a GO! At the start of November i entered the ballot for the Grand Union Canal Race ( www.gucr.co.uk. Update next week and hopefully new...

42k and beyond: Buff in The Saddle
http://richardmerry.blogspot.com/2011/05/buff-in-saddle.html
Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Wednesday, 4 May 2011. Buff in The Saddle. The title doesn’t relate to a strange habit I have got into (or maybe it does, depending on your lifestyle), but it refers to the new bit of clothing I have received from Buffwear UK - The Buff Pro Bib cycle shorts. Based in Marks Tey. Now to compliment my riding (which I am told is very good for my age - should I be insulted? And Buff BOW 08. Hopefully i will start getting a f...

http://richardmerry.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Monday, 21 March 2011. Out and definitely Down. However this also made me realize how much this is all costing me, as race entry fees are still rising, which, with the increasing costs of petrol or train fares, hotel bills and restaurant bills to consider for both me and my wife (in the case of London Marathon) it make racing extremely expensive, and that’s only basic road races! However I am lucky in that I am doing th...

42k and beyond: January 2011
http://richardmerry.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Monday, 24 January 2011. Finally an update, after almost 3 weeks of little or nothing on the running front! My legs felt great (combination of using the Compressport socks and R2's for recovery), but core was a mess and sitting up straight on Tuesday was a workout in its self - new plan formulated to sort that bit out! Finally I am now looking for a new shoe sponsor, after Adam Smith left Fitness Footwear, and they stop...

42k and beyond: Re-Launch
http://richardmerry.blogspot.com/2012/08/re-launch.html
Race Reports, Kit reviews, raising money for Charities and general running ramblings! Monday, 27 August 2012. Official relaunch of my blog is NOW, and has been suitably renamed to "42k and Beyond". Anyway back to the running, as training has now been sorted I am planning more races! Next up in October is the Brentwood Trail Marathon, 12 x 3.5k laps of a country park - nice in the sun, but slippery when wet and October will probably be very wet (must break in some trail running shoes). Finally, for now, I...
