      no – I ran a 10k last year and it was painful enough! I have dodgy knees so running isn’t a great sport for me. I’m not a wuss though… I did ten tors a long time ago if that means anything to you?!

      I’ve run 5, including two in a weekend. The second one hurt a lot!

      well i started a marathon and was doing very well (top 50 at the 19 mile mark) however for some reason I then woke up in an ambulance and was taken off the course !!!

      I had a virus which had seriously affected my aerobic capcity whihc meant that I collapsed while I was actually running. It took me several months before I could run again however I made a full reovery. Might not bother with another marathon though 🙂
