I don't quite know how it's happened, but I appear to have signed up to do a
charity run in July with work. Yes, me,
volunteering to run a distance which is longer than that between the Northern line and platform 4 at London Bridge station; a stretch I regularly find myself sprinting along for dear life.
To be fair, it's not a marathon distance or anything near it - a "mere" 5.6km through Battersea Park - but I have never done anything like this in my life. Yeah, I know I could walk it if I wanted to, but that would be a bit of a cop out in my opinion. I have no idea what kind of time to aim for, but having crowdsourced a rough estimate I've decided to go for sub 45 minutes. So let the training commence! Maybe I should ask Eddie Izzard for some tips...apparently Calippos might do the trick?

In your defence, that weird steepish bit before the platforms at London Bridge is a *bitch* to run up.
What date is this and where do we stand to cheer & throw sweets at you???
