Hi all


I'm running the London marathon for the first time next year. I'm doing the 24 week beginners running programme from the Virgin website which involves training 6 out of 7 days a week (5 shortish week runs and a longer Sunday run). At the moment I'm only running about 2 or 3 miles a day. I normally go in the evening when my other half gets home, but sometimes do daytime runs with my son in the buggy when I know I won't be able to get out in the evening.


I just wondered if any other mums are doing anything similar and fancied joining forces? Please PM me if you'd be interested in this - it would be nice to have company now that it's so dark in the evenings, and for motivation of course!


Whilst I'm writing, I will also be shameless and plug my sponsorship page: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/HollieStroud I'm raising money for Kids Company (they work therapeutically with vulnerable inner-city children and young people, and are founded by the wonderful Camila Batmanghelidjh). Any donations will be very greatly appreciated.


Thanks

Hollie

    • It's taken time to see the legacy of Thatcher's free market policy but we're really seeing it now with utilities, housing and infrastructure 😢.  I think I've remembered correctly that on Dirty Business they said we are the only country in the world to have our water supply totally privately owned.   When it gets taken back into public ownership the private owners will rub their hands together with glee having withdrawn massive profits and bonuses over the last 30 + years, let the infrastructure go to pot and now have the taxpayer come back in after this long period of neglect and pay for the failing systems to be rebuilt.  If you think those companies will suffer at the hands of government then you have more faith than I.  Thatcherism has a lot to answer for ☹️  
    • what's scandalous is our government allowing it. The should and can impose fines and order works which would lead to TW becoming bankrupt, at which point it can be taken back into the public domain.
