We are almost at the end of the holidays. A bitter sweet time. It’s been hard work and fun. But time moves on and so must we. Here we are then with the stats for week seventeen and for the […]
Day 95, Still Going.
The holidays are rolling along and I’m still going. I’ve completed another month so here are the stats for week thirteen and July. I ran a total of 92.2 miles in July, another monthly increase. I averaged 12,876 steps a […]
Day 94, Summer Holidays.
I’m trying to catch up with logging my progress. The summer holidays have hit and all semblance of normality has gone. Finding time to blog is hard. I’ve realised that I’m self motivating when it comes to running now, so […]
Day 79, Making it up as I go along.
Tuesday was tricky. We’ve been away. Had a great time, but Tuesday was the travelling back day on which we drove from Newcastle down to Norfolk. On the Sunday before, when we drove up to Newcastle, I got up at […]
Day 70, Ooh happy day!
TEN WEEKS I felt the need for fireworks and a big brass band as I finished my seventieth run. Hell yes! I’ve completed Ten weeks. I’m so very pleased with myself. Ticking off theses mile stones has such a […]

Day 65, Crashing through mile stones.
Nine weeks of running every day. I ran 84.38 miles in June, furthest I’ve ever run in a single month. Nine weeks of keeping up my step count. I averaged 12,478 steps a day including my run, so that’s a […]
Day 63, Not too busy.
It’s been hectic. I’ve been up to my eye balls in stuff, so unfortunately the blog has suffered. The good news is that I’ve gotten used to running, so much so, that I’ve still been out every day for my […]
Day 43, Week six.
I’ve completed six weeks and I’m feeling pretty good. An unexpected positive to come out of my challenge is the improvement in my skin. I had noticed a change a couple of weeks in but I wasn’t sure it would […]
Day 36, Excuses I’ve used, No 2.
This is kind of an extension of excuse number one. This is the excuse of being a parent and having days when it’s just me and the little one, but more specifically. It’s just me, the little one and the […]
