I'm Back
I am back from my Tenerife retreat and ready for my big run.

I have trained, (2 short jogs), have my sponsors, (me) have my water bottle, (JD) and am ready for the Big Fun Run.....

Please sponsor me at my Justgiving site, its for a very worthy cause if you read my blog you will know all about it.

Thanks all

Am I going Mad.

I had a thought while waiting to go to the gym. - (May have been a momentary lapse of sanity)

Why don't follow the Tao route and do a real out-of-the-gym run.

Googling for "Derby 5k" brought a link to the same event Tao is running, the Big Fun Fun, and it's in Derby too.

There is no "fun" in a "run"

The only problem, it's 11 October. This gives me less than 6 weeks to prepare, not only this but I'm on holiday for 2 of those.

Can I compare running on the treadmill with running on the ground ?
Will my knee hold up for 5k ?
Will I wake up from this nightmare ?
How long are you supposed to prepare for a 5k run ?

I shall go to the gym and try a 5k treadmill run - Paramedics on standby
