Very weak today......

And no surprise really as I've notched up my 32nd mile since last thursday. I seem to be running too fast as well. I think it's because I've got too much good quality music on my ipod. I'm going to have to put some 60's, 70's and 80's music on there. I know you're thinking that it's an excuse to put more Neil Diamond on there. But I think it might help....maybe.

Details of how to sponsor me are in the 'my profile' section. You'll also find my email address there too!

Rubbish weather............

But it's great for running in! If I didn't know better, we could've been off the coast of the UK today, with the pants weather we're having. I'm now onto 109 miles and I'm feeling good; my shin splints are calming down, at last. I'm actually looking forward to getting up tomorrow and going for a quick 2 miler, well that's what I'm telling myself!

I've finally got there..........

And I'm so pleased that the first 100 miles is out of the way. I'm feeling quite chuffed with myself at the moment. It's only taken me 14 hours of running (over a period of 22 days) to complete 100 miles. By the beginning of April, providing I remain injury free, I should've racked up almost another 100 miles. Fingers crossed.

Feeling good.

I've done another 5 miles today which takes me to 91 miles completed. By sunday evening I want to have got to the 100 Mile mark. The amount I've been pledged currently stands at a little over £1900, which is fantastic. I'm getting nervous though as it's getting very close to the £2000 mark which will mean I'll have to do a marathon at the end! £1995 would be a nice round figure, I think!

Laughing in the face of injuries..........

............or is it because I got mentioned in the Navy News? Anyway, I think I may have shrugged off both ankle injuries. I did 5 miles this afternoon and although one ankle was a little stiff, I've had no re-occurrance of the pain. I'm now 40 miles behind and have 85% to go. There is a good chance that I'm not going to achieve the 600 miles in the time scale I wanted, but I'm not giving up just yet. There's still plenty of time to catch up, even if I have to moon-walk the distance !

A second injury!

I've bruised my other ankle now; I slipped in the shower and bruised my ankle bone. It's not that bad though and I'm hoping I'll be ok in the morning. If I'm not, then I will start walking the mileage instead. I've got to do something as I'm 36 miles down now. Not a happy bunny, currently.

The first major injury!

Rubbish! My ankle hurts when I put weight on it. It was enough to stop me running this morning, so I'll rest today and see how I am in the morning. Up to 81 miles now and still loads behind; I may have to start rowing the the remaining 519 miles!
