I'm running in the first Brighton Marathon this year on 18th April to raise money for Wooden Spoon.  I'll be running in Team Spoon and would like to contribute as much as possible to the cause.  Visit www.woodenspoon.com to find out more now.

Up until 6 weeks ago, my training was going swimmingly: mileage was increasing nicely, speed work was getting somewhere, felt stronger with each week that passed....and then certain muscle groups that i dont care to name (all south of the border) started getting all huffy with me. Against my better judgement, i took a rather autocratic stance against their growing complaints. Well, in the end they won- apparently some niggles cant be run off as i'd hoped. Still, ill be running the full 26 miles irrespective of their opinions on the 18th April...albeit at a crawl. What a hero.
