Went out on Saturday on a 24 mile run and had to walk the last 2 miles home, my go had gone. Think it's what runners mean when they talk about "the bonk" or having "bonked"  i just ran out of energy and felt knackered. Think I might vary the training this week and do a little strength work in the Gym.
Thanks to any one whose sponsored me, justgiving.com/Neil-Richardson9

Have got my face in the paper this week so I'm hoping for some sponsors/ tips from other runners,  all advice, tip's even just encouragement is greatfully received. Not long to go now so don't let me start slacking now!

Have ran 48.80 miles this week after making up a new route home from Carlisle (24 miles) i ran back by todhills,westlinton long town and Gretna. Might have to think up a different route though as the A7 long town to Gretna is a fast road and there isn't always a pavement to run on.
Ran my recovery run today after watching Mo come 8th in the marathon a great result for his first, only wish I was half as fast!

Ran 46.11 miles this week, have been running instead of going to the gym and really feel better for it, if I had more time I'd do both but I much prefer gettin out on the road.
Plugged my watch into the laptop and made a new 10 1/2 mile route as I was getting board. New route was ok but a bit hilly!
Have also decided to try and raise money for cancer research UK, my misses has set up a just giving page-    Justgiving.com/Neil-Richardson9
Please chuck some penny's in this general direction the more folk do the less likely I am to give up!
