Had a lovely run this morning, completely free from canine induced trauma. Huzzah ( Read more... )

Very impassioned article from a parent whose daughter is too young for MMR and who has contracted measles here.

I grow weary of arguing with misinformed middle class parents who stubbornly insist that they want absolute proof that MMR does not cause autism. No matter that you can't prove a negative, no matter that not one study has found a link ( Read more... )

After much refreshing of a continually crashing website, I have entered the ballot for next year's London Marathon. I know there's a good chance of being rejected, but I can always apply for a charity place and the running club gets a few entries as well ( Read more... )

 Jetlagged feeling is gone now. Hurrah!

My physio has okayed an increase in distance and so I went for a 3 mile run first thing this morning. The sun was shining and although it was hard work - you lose your stamina in a nanosecond when you lay off for a little while, *poof* and it's gone - it felt good and I feel good now.
