Cider,
I also remember seeing some Glasgow Jogging Network T-shirts when I was running, they may have a web site if not I'm sure you could track down a phone number. I was thinking of joining a club after the Loch Ness Marathon ... to get me through the winter so to speak ....

Well done! Excellent time. I think that, coupled with the fact that you were actually able to run last night (I might manage a couple of miles tonight) probably means you won't win the last place medal for Loch Ness..................sorry.

Nessie,
I am quite determined to finish this marathon, I just dont quite know how, when the farthest I have ran to date is 13 miles !!! I was reading an article one here about the benefits of run / walk .. and I'm sold. run a mile walk a minute ... 26 times ... sounds easy .. yeek !!!

blimey daisy - are you not cutting it a tad short for lochness? Your only half way round and only got a few weeks left to train!! And I thought training for the Edinburgh one was cutting it fine!!

Thanks for the clubs folks - I'll check these out. Mind you I still can hardly lean on my left foot. Must have been running flat-footed at some point (hmm - all of it probably!!)

I have been 'training' for this marathon for about 3 months now.... trouble is got injured half way through and had a 4 week lay off ... so no long runs etc.. and started back training just 3 weeks ago .. injured again off a week till sunday there. but hey.. as long as I finish ... I can put it down to experience... and what could be nicer than a slow plod down the side of Loch Ness ...
