I am a fat Penguin, I presently weigh in at just over 20 stones and started running because of the John Bingham book 'Courage To Start.' I am following the 60 second plan as detailed in the 'Running

I'm 51, never ran until last year.I ran the GSR last Sunday, I am due to run the GNR on the 21st Sep, trying to find out about Penguin's pace group. Anyone know how to get the details prior

never run with headphones.Am extremely excited to be running the Boston Marathon in April. Of course I will be visiting the penguins in the New England Aquarium whilst I am there!!

marathons and 6 london marathons...but i am now a penguin !!

I took up road running in 2005 as a sort of career break from running desert trails (in Saudi Arabia) every weekend as a Hash House Harrier. Silly me! Biggest road-running thrill in each of the last six years has been running the (Durban - Pietermaritzburg) Comrades ultramarathon - the "ultimate human race". This year I added the (Cape Town) Two Oceans - "world's most beautiful marathon" to my CV.

to get back into training etc.I'm lucky that there is some lovely counrtyside close to where I live,and some good runs around the local reservoirs.I am another Penguin!!

for the atmosphere, I've competed 8 times I think. I've run three marathons - London in 2002 and 2005 and Munich in 2003. I did all the marathons the Penguin way - run and walk and really enjoyed all of them. OK
