:eek: :eek: I don't remember the last time I even ran for a bus!! :eek: :eek:

A few of us at work said we'd do it last year and I even bought a treadmill ready and everything ... and now I guess I should go and plug it in !!:D

Still, at least this gives me something to focus on and should get me off the internet for a bit although I have spent the last hour browsing various running/marathon websites and have managed to eat a whole bag of mini eggs too

Wish me luck !!:rolleyes:

:T Well done, best of luck with the training

Are you running to raise money for a specific charity ?

Good luck!

Make sure you check out the runner's world (I'm sure you have) website, it's got some very good guides for getting in shape.

I have done it twice - once with a broken foot!!

I loved it - great atmosphere. Wouldn't say I ran it, and at times didn't even jog! In fact, towards the end there were people walking faster than I was "running"!!!

But it is honestly one of the best things I have ever done in my life. Something that no one can ever take away once you have done it. So savour it and enjoy - it is hard work, but boy is it worth it.

Good luck!
