That's partly good, McG. I'll try and have "Life is like a box of chocolates (full stop)" at the ready next time.

My manager when I was leaving work yesterday, forgetting that I was doing Snowdonia tomorrow (which I told her about months ago) “oh, is that a last minute thing?” Why yes, I thought I’d enter a marathon on a whim *rolls eyes*

I have been told "You're mad!" when I say that I am doing another marathon. To that, I quote the saying, "Running is a mental sport and we are all insane!"

Yes, at work on Friday I had the 'you're doing a marathon this weekend? Why? Is it for charity?' conversation again. This developed into 'Do you really go out and run at lunchtime? How do you manage that?'

I remember a local radio show covering a large half marathon near to us. The lead motor bike rider was asked how he decides how fast the runners are allowed to go. The Kenyan who won was bemused to be asked what charity he was running for and how long ago he started his training.
