I've got a marathon in 11 days and after having some tendonitis in my ankle last week, I've revised my running plan and intend on walking some of the marathon. I was originally planning on running about 5hours 30minutes, but now am keen not to injure myself so I want to include some walking.

Some experts recommend running for a mile, walking for a minute (repeated 26 times)....while others recommend running for longer and walking for longer.

Does anyone have any advice they could offer me? I am not a runner, and am doing the marathon for charity. My only goal is to complete the race without hurting myself!

p.s. Details of my fundraising can be found at www.runforschools.co.uk!

  Hi, looking for these ‘old school’ reading scheme books. Did buy some online but after, bidding, insurance and postage….thought that a local reach out was a better option. (Already tried Lordship Lane shops) Thanks for looking out for some, Regards, Veronica

  Ignorant owners / since ED is now full of middle class yuppies, yes very rude but I care not… one would hope that they would not drag their darling little kiddies out to the shops in the heat in case of heat stroke etc so why in gods name do they think it is acceptable to take their dogs out? If this is not ignorance or indeed cruelty, then please enlighten me….

  I thought there was only one Dulwich Library and that is on Lordship Lane/ Court Lane. Is there another one? If so since when?
