An easy 4 miles yesterday was exactly that! I ended up doing 4.5 miles with an uphill 1/4 to finish, but all is well.
Last two miles tomorrow and that's it.
Niggling aches only I'm pleased to report, apart that is, from putting a drawing pin through my foot as I was up in the loft getting the cases down.
Four fellow RC'ers have now sponsored me, which is terrific, thanks to all.
However I do on Sunday the real winner will be the MS Society (check out my webpage for the total!), and I reckon that will be about £93 per mile.

Good luck SP. We'll be watching out for you on Sunday.
Tip: don't let Paula out of your sight and you'll be fine.

Yes, Good Luck, I'm sure it'll go really well. If not, keep thinking about the £93 for each mile and that'll help you through it! Look forward to hearing all about it when you've recovered.

When he's recovered? We can't wait that long.

Yes all the best Andy. You've been a legend with your training, so doubtless the race will go well.
And by the way, please give Aussie girl Benita Johnston a pat on the back as you run past. After winning the Great Northern this year she looks a real chance for the biggun. She should even give Paula a run for her money! Make sure you don't start too far back or you may not catch them til near the end
Can't wait for your race report!

I somehow missed this post. I had a quick chat with Benita Johnston at the Expo where she was signing some autographs trying not to look too bored at having to satisfy some sponsor's quota. Top girl though!!
I asked her what she thought about Paula's late entry. A wry smile followed by a stock 'all-adds-to-the-competition' answer, but I could tell....
It was me she was really scared of....

Well you obviously rattled her - I see she didn't do too well
