Standing in the crowd some 1500 strong I still felt vacant. I didn’t feel fired up or competitive, and I know this was because I was so ill-prepared. Then the gun went, and I trotted along with the crowd, under the banner and into enough space to start running, and suddenly adrenaline rushed... [more]

With nothing to do I took the bus to the start point at Nant-Peris, where the runners were beginning to accumulate.

Cursing the custard for clogging me up, I started to prepare myself as the clock drew closer to the start. Knee-strap on, plasters over nipples, Vaseline on toes and down pants, and finally number pinned on chest. That felt good. I felt like a runner now, and I strapped my bumbag around my waist...

The London Marathon is all very well, but real runners choose a harder option. I'm not a real runner, but I decided to make my first marathon the hardest road marathon in Britain - Snowdonia.

On the morning of the race it looked as though the storm that had been thrashing against... [more]

On the morning of the race it looked as though the storm that had been thrashing against my tent all night had blown itself out. I could see blue skies in the distance, the air was cold and there was no wind. Perfect conditions. Up at 7.30 with 3 hours to kill before the start, I hovered about... [more]
