Wednesday 9th - Just Giving site sorted. Will send out email to my entire address book shortly, so if you are reading this because of my email - hello! Found a picture of me in running gear to go on my site. For a one off, I will not be doing the marathon in fancy dress, or in any dress!! The picture in case you wonder, was taken at 2006 Porlock Fun Run.
Didn't get to sleep till late yesterday. Lay awake listening to podcasts for marathon virgins. The first one I picked was entitled "January - month 3". Shit!
The running bug is spreading at work. Even Roger has threatened to come on a training run with me! Got my first sponsor as well today - thanks Maria.
Have to mix training (ok, planning training) with line learning for Porlock Pantomime at the moment, can't get too toned up otherwise my dresses won't fit.
Todays' training: Low fat custard.

Join me on my quest to run the 2008 Flora London Marathon and at the same time, raise as much as possible for Kidney Research
Why Kidney Research?
Kidney Research UK supports research aimed at finding better treatments, and ultimately a cure, for kidney disease. We have over £9 million invested in research at any one time, awarding grants to doctors, nurses and researchers across the UK. We also award grants to kidney patients so that they can cope with the unexpected costs of their condition, and campaign for better patient access to renal services.
For those that don't know, I have Polycystic Kidney Disease. The type I have is carried in your genes (sorry kids!). My mother has it too and had a transplant about 10 years ago. But apart from a few pills each morning to control blood pressure and the odd ache & pain I don't know I've got it. I have just had a host of scans & tests and have been passed fit, so what better time to run a marathon? I am supposed to keep fit & eat healthy, plus I have just turned 40, so perhaps it is some sort of mid-life thing too!
