Some Humorous Running Anecdotes to keep us Smiling

Busy Busy

It has been a busy week so we have not had time to post any news - but I can assure you we are still on track with our training and have done our 3 sessions for the week and today we are doing a long road run. Thankfully it is a cloudy day , as usually we do our runs in the early morning to avoid the heat, but Alison was away over the weekend and gets back at lunchtime so we will do our run this afternoon.
Just for your information, all the training manuals say you should always run at the same time as the event will be - in our case this is 7am - hence why we run early mornings. Its gets your body used to running at that time - just a bit of interesting running info for you all :)
On another note - I am hoping to see more posts from our friends in the next few weeks as the training goes up a gear this week and in the weeks to follow, so some encouragement will be much appreciated.
Love for now.

  1. Well done guys!! Volker and I spent such a lovely evening with the Jimis last night and Alison was very good and didn't drink too much so she should be well ready for this afternoon's run. I am so proud of you both and really impressed with what you are taking on. I have no doubt at all that you will both cruise through Lewa with smiles on your faces :) and I really mean that! Where was that picture taken by the way? Hey it was the ride down for Alison's hen - her t shirt said "I'm the bride - it's all about me" how much fun was that :) love you both xxxxx
