RUNNER & TRIATHLETE: I’m a previously lardy girl who has swapped doner kebabs for trainers. It’s just as pricey but better for my waistline. Plus I end up with a lot less garlic sauce down my front. Based in Warwickshire, England

… Yep. The combination of sweat and skin on my tummy had given me what I like to call ‘The Runner-Truffle-Shufffle’. Or possibly ‘The Ruffle’ for short.
…
Plate spinning. Maybe a go on a unicycle. Face painting? Clown walking? I wasn’t too sure about the other things but I reckoned I could definitely do the clown walking. Maybe there would also be custard pies to throw (read: eat).
I ordered myself a pair of VibramFiveFingers running shoes. I’d always wanted to try them and had visions of being like Barefoot Ted – but with boobs.

Running is lots of small victories. It’s fighting the little things.
I had a sore foot, a child under one arm, a bicycle under the other and it was starting to rain.
We all love running … don’t we? Here are 10 reasons I DON’T.
... “Bugger me” said the skeleton who was running next to me.
A 24hr event with laps of 5 miles ... and a rather unhappy tummy.
How not to beat your partner to death with a trainer and why you should live in the moment. And the portaloo.
My last relay had ended in collapse and the feeling I was going to projectile vomit in the hedge. As this was a BEER relay, I had my suspicions that despite it only being 2 miles, this one might end in a similar fashion. (Taken from Dreaming of Footpaths June 2014)
A 10 mile team relay ... and getting eaten by ants.
