LE JOG

[El Gordo]

Aye, good stuff Nigel. I must confess I missed the previous update. Some good steady mileage there. Well done on the weight loss.

I have never dropped the task of getting to JOG -- I simply haven't run any miles for mionths. Bike miles really would be cheating. I'll be adding mine just as soon as I get out there again.

I see you've bagged a place in the Parks Half [another ]. I had this down as a possible autumn target. I knew that places sold out in a couple of days, so I signed up for the email announcement of entry opening, but never received anything. Or perhpas it ended up in my junk folder. Missed the boat, anyway.

I'm also in for the VLM ballot though I think this is only my 3rd or 4th year, so no automatic place for me yet. I know they've stopped offering automatic entries after 5 rejections, but I'm pretty sure I'll still be eligible. Would be fun to have another crack at London - injuries permitting.

Do keep us updated with LEJOG.
