Sunday 12th April to Sturday 18th

Saturday 18th April
Well, Stoke have survived. Well done you Potters, much as it hurts to say it after our brief visit last season. Played some hideous golf - 93 I think it was - terrible putting, shanks aplenty, not much good to report at all. Such is life. Doug sponsored my Marathon run. Doug is the nicest bloke you will ever meet ever. I can't remember him ever losing his rag when playing golf - I lost it ever other shot and on most putts - great bloke and a long-standing Derby fan to boot - top fella.

Frank Kinlan on t'BBC. Have mentioned Frank a few times in my blog as an inspiration but it's not only me whose recognised his amazing achievements he's on the BBC website see:-

Friday 17th
Another solid five miler this morning. Nice pace again. Did loads of weights last night am ramping up the whole fitness thing all of a sudden now it's nearly too late!!!

Thursday 16th
Did the five miler this morning before picking up papers. Set off at 5:50 and got back for 6:45 so with a minute or three in the paper shop I reckon that's getting close to the 10min mile pace I used to do.

Wednesday 15th
Even worse today - hammering it down with rain so thought about going for run when got home. Man U v Porto on telly so watched that and did some weights. Rubbish!!!

Tuesday 14th
Not much done today - played 18 holes of golf and did some weights but that was it. Could do better.

Monday 13th
Started off with the five mile pick up the papers route while poxy edge charged up then added ten miles to it by running up Mayfield, down to Church Mayfield and along the river to Toad Hall Bridge (I think it's called) then along the road to Norbury along towards Ellaston and then along to Calwich Abbey before picking the river run up again. Very nice twas too. Pace was around 11 minute miles which will do.


Sunday 12th April
Just did a quick 7 mile whizz of a run round Mappleton and back - steady as anything and went much quicker for the last mile.
