From The Dhama Burns



this i put somewhere else as well, like with quite a bit of stuff as it turns out, but i'm putting it here too because it really needs to be alone I think. Of course that makes things a bit confusing, all this skipping around but i spose thats what happens when things want to be alone.

Running in April and beyond in 2010_updated




these are my races that i've planned so far, for this year. the yellow coloured in bit is the already run bit. but it isnt like a definite definite plan, except maybe the London to Brighton, thats like a scary goal that i am trying to aim for but luckily i can practice the route a bit before so it wont be entirely scary and also it was quite expensive and its not good to waste money, and also the Druid Ridgeway challenge is in a way more scary cos of the night time, so I'm making that non-compulsory otherwise it could be too nerve racking but its on the plan because i like the name and also i think it will be fun to run along the ridgeway for 3 days in a row, like 3 marathons actually but you dont have to carry a huge rucksack which I think would not be fun at all. I have decided that i prefer not to run with a lot of gear because I think its not entirely true to the spirit of running, so i am going to run events where i dont have to carry a lot of stuff, until such time as I might change my mind for whatever reason, or not at all. imagine if i got to love running with a rucksack and then not be able to run without one, once i had started, then that would really make me lose my freedom without even realising it and also i would feel as if I am in the military which is not appealing at all but sometimes you have to carry a few things for a purpose eg water or a camera or keys or sweets or a pepper spray (in some countries they probably carry small guns)but i dont have a pepper spray because thats just paranoia.
