Charlotte's Web Log: Park Run
http://charlotteeaston.blogspot.com/2014/02/park-run.html
Saturday, February 1, 2014. This morning, I participated in the Park Run for the first time. As you can see, it was a beautiful morning but Brockwell was rather flooded. Where you see puddle, there should be tarmac. A little over two years ago I did my one and only run with Dulwich Runners. The next day I was diagnosed with aggressive, stage 4 breast cancer. My first words to the doctor were "But I ran 11km yesterday! But that doesn't matter". February 1, 2014 at 12:14 PM. Travels of a Tandem.

Charlotte's Web Log: In the Pink
http://charlotteeaston.blogspot.com/2014/02/in-pink.html
Monday, February 17, 2014. Lovely Laura Fitzgibbon, a colleague from Emanuel has been kicking my butt the last couple of weeks. Thanks to her encouragement, I finished my third Park Run and managed a new personal best. Running has helped me stay sane in the last few weeks and I think I'm finding my mojo again. I owe Laura a bun. Towards the end of the race I spied a photographer and managed to catch him after I'd scanned in. He very kindly emailed me these pictures. His site is here. Travels of a Tandem.

Charlotte's Web Log: The bitch is back
http://charlotteeaston.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-bitch-is-back.html
Saturday, December 13, 2014. The bitch is back. Metastatic cells have been found floating in my lungs. I don't understand; the picture was so rosy only a matter of weeks ago. I've had time to adjust my thinking. I am proud that I've done my best to keep myself fit and healthy. I am going to need all the physical strength I have. One in the eye of the alien.

Charlotte's Web Log: Dylan Thomas
http://charlotteeaston.blogspot.com/2014/02/dylan-thomas.html
Saturday, February 1, 2014. The Prayer of Eli Jenkins from "Under Milk Wood" - Dylan Thomas. Over the years I have learnt a great deal from my students. This week, a very special member of my adorable sixth form Latin class introduced me to this prayer-poem. Not only has he lent me his copy of collected Dylan Thomas poems, but also insisted on reading it to me, complete with Welsh accent. The pictures are from Seaham in the summer. Every morning when I wake,. Dear Lord, a little prayer I make,.

http://charlotteeaston.blogspot.com/2015/01/horace-ode-iii29.html
Tuesday, January 20, 2015. Horace: Ode III.29. I have two Woodmans to thank for my love of Horace. This is a small extract from a bigger Ode. We can do nothing about the future. Enjoy today. Translation not my own, it is John Dryden's. It is a little bit free but you get the idea. Ille potens sui Happy the man, and happy he alone,. Laetusque deget, cui licet in diem He, who can call today his own:. Dixisse "visi: eras vel atra He, who secure within, can say. I have had my hour. Horace J. Dryden.

Travels of a Tandem. 65279;The first time I rode a tandem I was eleven years old and on a school outing to Kielder Forest. We were on a mountain biking expedition and I spent the first half hour at the visitors' centre whizzing round on one.
