The Jogger Blogger: October 2010
http://speedysoph-joggerblogger.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The road from London 2011. Sunday, 31 October 2010. I have never laughed out loud in the middle of a race but I did when I spotted the 'for Fawkes sake' sign as I was ploughing up (read speed walking) the final hill of the Guy Fawkes 10 mile. Race today. And this pretty much summed up the race, which also included signs for the Birstwith Brute at four miles (apparently 15%! Running the race were lots of fellow Eccleshill Road Runners. Given my recent run of luck running without my watch, I decided to try...

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: April 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Tuesday, 30 April 2013. The ballot for the 2014 London Marathon opened on Monday and closed in a record time! By 11:30 125,000 people had entered the ballot to try and gain entry. Not surprising it is difficult to get in, reported to be only a one in seven chance! I resisted entering with surprising ease. I had imagined I might just be tempted but not the case. I suspect my trip to Manchester on Sunday may have played a part. A group of Eccleshill. Tuesday, 23 April 2013.

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: July 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Monday, 29 July 2013. I've been increasing my walking, increasing my cycling in the gym, increasing my visits to Peter May. And progress is being made! Yesterday I ran a mile, though not literally! Albeit a very slow mile, I really felt liberated, ok out of breath, very sweaty and not dissimilar to how I usually feel at the end of a race! I'm in no doubt that it's going to be a long road back, but I'm on that road, that's the main thing! Out for a stroll with Dave and Marc.

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: March 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Monday, 25 March 2013. Off balance.in more ways than one! I was excited as I dressed in several layers ready to run on Sunday morning. Did I say? I love running in the snow! For me any way! What I do find baffling though is what Mother nature is throwing at us - how different the weather has been from one week to the next. Last week at the top of Baildon. This week at Hirst Wood, Saltaire. Now, this evening, to run or not to run, that is the question? The intermittent sno...

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: February 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Friday, 22 February 2013. I don't suppose I'm the only one but I'm finding myself looking for ways to keep me inspired on my marathon training journey. I've been subscribed to the 'Realbuzz'. Site since my first attempt at the Great North Run in 2006. It's an excellent site which promotes 'Healthy Active Living'. The resources available on the site are endless. Today though I read an article by running expert and blogger Tom Bedford titled 'The Long Run'. 8 weeks to London.

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: January 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Monday, 21 January 2013. New Shoes, in the news, racing blues. My new marathon training partner arrived in style and in double quick time! I was astonished when I logged onto my Fetcheveryone. Account to add my shiny new and very pink Nike Air Pegasus 29's to my kit list, I had logged well over 800 miles in my 28's - no wonder it felt like I was running barefoot on the pavements! With 13 weeks to go I'm sure they will serve me well! 10pm I noticed I had a text message on ...

Julie's Eccleshill Road Running: May 2013
http://joolzerr.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Julie's Eccleshill Road Running. Friday, 31 May 2013. I'm already feeling the benefit mentally because I have made the decision to join and also mastered the basics during the times I have been there. Never having stepped inside a gym to train before I am surprised at my attitude to it so far. I'm also confident it will have it's benefits since I have visited after tough sessions and definitely felt it eased my DOMS. Love this action shot courtesy of Linda Bussey.
