I did 7km
Quite chuffed. Yes I know that's fuck all if I want to run a marathon.

No, it's the right amount you need to be able to run to commence training.

Is this marathon you're running the fuck-off difficult one?
With those "hill" things that everyone outside of Norfolk has heard of?

26.2 miles of Wiltshire cross country.

Stairs make a great substitute for hills.

In all seriousness, I am properly up for this idea
Just to be able to say I've done it. Do you have the complete distances plan? Al sent me the first four weeks yesterday

The best way to do it is to stop being such mincing bender and fucking get on with it.

I went to gym last night
but it was full of cunts and they wouldn't give me a towel and there were no treadmills free so I went home again and ate a large proportion of the remains of the tin of christmas biscuits.

That's fine, consider it early carb loading.
Think of those gym losers as we cross the finish line of the UK's toughest marathon. They will respect us then, oh yes.

I may have a picture of us printed on a T-shirt which I will wear to the gym and whenever anyone asks what the picture is of
I'll smack them in the mouth and say "YOU DON'T GET TO TALK TO ME BITCH YOU HEAR!!!??? YOU DON'T GET TO TALK TO ME!!!" and then I'll kick the nearest bystander in the balls and walk out.

This is great, but make sure the t-shirt is lycra, yeah?

( crackhouseceilidhband Fuck off back to Mumsnet, Fri 13 Jan 2012, 13:29, Reply)

I no longer wear anything that isn't lycra.
