Ttt for any post saturday night pubbers who are feeling generous.
Up to £450 now, just need fifty more before I raise the target again. Quite touched by the generosity of chit chatters to date. Got a 22 miler tomorrow from Littlehampton to Brighton all into a 10mph headwind. |

"Whoopsadaisy is a Sussex based charity for children with Physical Disabilities. The company I work for has had close links with them for many years now.
All contributions, no matter how small, are greatly appreciated. For instance just £5 provides a week's worth of snacks for their pre school groups." £450, still a few weeks left, should easily meet your target and then some.. |

Oops. Thank you Brendan. Think we've had a few run ins in the past so proper fair play to you for sponsoring.
Did 17 miles this morning. Was hoping to do 22 but I poured boiling water on my foot last nigh(don't ask) and it started to really hinder my running. A bit annoying as I was feeling not too bad and averaged about 8:30/mile all into a headwind and carrying about 5-6lb of camelbak on my back, was looking forward to the last few miles toward the pier. So perhaps on the day could set off closer to 8:15 ish with any headwind having an equal and opposite tailwind for the equivalent amount of time and nothing on my back. think quite a lot of slowing down in the last 6 miles is inevitable but if I can get to twenty at 8:30ish then sub 4 should still be doable. . http://tinypic.com/r/2cenet/8 Picture of foot, perhaps avoid if you are just about to eat. |
