I started my training with a little mini-run this morning with the dog. A very little mini-run, I might add, as I have a lurgy at the moment, so far from my best health. It's a start though! And I must add, I felt better for that sudden tiny burst of enthusiasm and energy. I'll run a bit further tomorrow, and the next day, and so on.
It's funny how dogs have a compulsion to run alongside you. I'm not convinced that Toby is altogether keen on the idea (preferring to play ball), but it's as if his mechanics insist that he runs. He has no idea what he's letting himself in for.
Fact of the day: The record for the most money raised for charity by an individual marathon runner is £1,841,138 (US$3,669,325) and was set by Steve Chalke (UK) who raised the money for Oasis UK by completing the Flora London Marathon, London, UK, on 22 April 2007.
