Week one of the official training countdown has begun. Only 90 days left!!
Ran 33 miles this week on the road and the legs were a bit sore but have recovered with a few days off.
I am on a course this week and will be hitting the gym rather than the streets, so watch out treadmills, cross trainers, weights and the pool. They will be getting hit hard.
I am running for a charity and if you would like to donate, please follow the instructions on the link below.

I need to raise £1500 to run and I have started the push for donations. If all my Facebook friends give at least £1, I will raise £903 just from them!! Add this to the £300 raised from my kind friends at the West Yorkshire bowling tournament, and the £150 donation by my family, it is getting there.
I am also aiming to lose 2 stones before the race and any advice on diets would be appreciated. Lost 6lbs this week from the 5000 calories burnt in the running.
I will update this blog daily now, as I have set it up and inform you all of the miles / calories and weight loss.
Thank you for your time in looking at this blog and feel free to add comments, if you can?
John
