Forgive me Father for I have sinned, it's been 51 days since my last blog!

Marathon S.

Well, I can't believe I've been so naughty as to have not written anything down during the last 51 days, however, I'm back and this time I'm totally serial about it (That’s not a typo if you watch South Park you'll understand how serial I am!!)

Anyway, I completed the half and set off for 2 weeks hedonistic shenanigans in Thailand where I ate and drunk the body weight of 5 Chang, sung 30 renditions of Fanja made famous by the Thai Robbie Williams called bird, well actually they call him Lobbie Lilliams and returned completely rejuvenated, healed and ready for action.

Well not quite as I was stressed having been given 30 days notice on my beauty apartment whilst away so had to start a frantic search for a new place. I won't bore you with the details, however, it only all came together on the final day. In the meantime I'd read an article in Runners World and overnight developed a new, more efficient running style meaning that 9.6 became the new 8.2Kmph.

I set my fastest ever treadmill 5 and 10k and all was looking well to commence the full marathon training on the 30th of June.

However, another hedonistic trip, this time to Glastonbury came along where more cider was consumed that water flowed into the Titanic when it struck the 'berg and more miles of chow mein noodles were eaten than would reach from the Earth to Mercury. This coupled with a heavy cold mean I've not done a sausage of exercise for about 2 weeks.

The weight has ballooned as has my face and 5 marathon training sessions have come and gone.

Anyway, that was then and this is now, I'm back.

Standby for regular updates as I train for my first ever marathon.

Marathon S on the rampage!
