Fair play to ya.

Didn't realise you were doing it. My sister did it a couple of years ago, said it was gruelling.

[MrG]

i did it once before, and didnt really train too much, or as much as i could have for it, and it hurt bad

taking it seriously today, been on a 2mile run, and a 5 mile bike ride

Good for you :)
I'll sponsor you nearer the time ok? x

[_guest]

Go you! I'll sponsor you too, if you remind me..

Two of my cousins are coming over to run it so maybe I'll secretly monitor an unofficial "Great North Race". :p

[MrG]
