Suze's Witterings: 400K!
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2014/09/400k.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Sunday, September 21, 2014. So, having reached 200k. Half way through the year, we're almost three quarters through the year and I have passed the 400k mark! If a picture tells a thousand words, what does a picture from my Nikeplus page say? September has seen me join other runners from my virtual running community, Run Mummy Run,. With three months left this year and based on this month, I should be up to 700K. By that time I'll also know whether I've been successful ...

Suze's Witterings: June 2014
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Thursday, June 12, 2014. I'm writing about recent runs in reverse order. In early March, I ran in the Surrey Half marathon: Guildford to Woking and back. It was the first time this event had been held and it went very well. The route starts at the Spectrum Leisure centre, heads north along country lanes to Woking and back again. We met the elite runners on their journey back to the Spectrum when we had reached mile 4! That's a reflection of their speed, not mine.

Suze's Witterings: 200K!
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2014/07/200k.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Wednesday, July 02, 2014. Are there more days between 1 January and 30 June than between 1 July and 31 December? I'll leave you pondering that. Regardless, let's conclude that we are half way through the year. So, last year I ran a total of 200k. That 200k can be broken down into:. 23 runs at an average distance of 8.7k and an average pace of 6 minutes 36 seconds. Most runs were from home but others took me to Oxford, Jersey and the Reading half marathon. Bright Bear the P...

Suze's Witterings: Val McDermid: Wire in the Blood; the Retribution
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2013/09/val-mcdermid-wire-in-blood-retribution.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Monday, September 02, 2013. Val McDermid: Wire in the Blood; the Retribution. Having downloaded and read Wire in the Blood, I was trying to find which Tony Hill/ Carol Jordan book to read next. As the Retribution follows the escape of the Wire in the Blood's killer from jail and the subsequent series of unfortunate, but premeditated events, it made perfect sense. (The pricing helped but maybe that's for another post). Interestingly, I've realised that my favourite (only) c...

Suze's Witterings: March 2014
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Monday, March 24, 2014. Wholefoods Breakfast Run 8.2 miles. Following completion of the Surrey half marathon a couple of weeks ago, this Sunday saw me in Kingston for the Wholefoods breakfast Run. Usually after a half marathon, I find myself thinking "oh, I'll have a break from running for a week or two." That break usually continues for longer than it should. Signing up for a run two weeks later prevented that break from occurring. 2M 17:52 = 8:56. 4M 18:41 = 9:20. Perhap...

Suze's Witterings: Give me seven years and I'll give you the novel
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2013/08/give-me-seven-years-and-ill-give-you.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Friday, August 02, 2013. Give me seven years and I'll give you the novel. So I've spent the last month participating in Campnanowrimo. The premise is simple: you set a target and write. The default target for the month is 50,000 words, I decided to move the goal posts to 30,000 and finally 10,000. In the end I was a little short of 10,000 but I had 9,500 words of story with a strong feel for where it will go. There's many different ways of skinning a cat:. But what it boil...

Suze's Witterings: The Law of Averages: 6,000 words
http://suzesblither.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-law-of-averages-6000-words.html
A post a day. Sunrise on a run. Monday, September 16, 2013. The Law of Averages: 6,000 words. So, I previously posted about my 10,000 word start on a novel. Do I say much about it yet? No, I'll keep under wraps for now. I was aiming for another 10,000 words in August but realised that if I'm setting the story in an alternate reality, I needed to spend some time on world creation and setting. There is research I need to do on the history of early computing and in particular, the Babbage machine. As ye...
