    Hmm, something odd's happening with my bank account. I checked it the other day, I've spent about £75 since then, and yet the balance is the same. I'm assuming that the DWP have paid my backdated IS but it hasn't shown up yet. I hope so anyway, otherwise something strange that needs a lot of sorting out has happened!

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I've got to start some serious training for The Great North Run in 4 weeks time.
    I've planned out a 10 mile route on walkjogrun for tomorrow!

    Sally what's the best thing to eat before a half marathon and how long before should you eat?

    Does anyone know where I can look for free delivery codes for asda (or at a pinch tesco)? I want to do an order of heavy things so I'm sorted for at least a month, and I've seen people on here say there are always codes floating about.
