Have a sense of Tumour 3

Three years ago today we found out Sam had a pilocytic astrocytoma brain tumour. So little is known about brain tumours and we continue to support the Children's Brain Tumour Research Centre in Nottingham. Over the last 3 years we've raised money for them by Sponsored dances, selling Livestrong Bands, a band concert and even me running!

Visit http://www.cbtrc.org/ and learn about brain tumours in children.

Some recent good news was that Sams last MRI scan showed no changes from the previous one.

Bad Powerpoint

Here's a brilliant article on bad powerpoints. Ive never seen a good one, so we should all take a lesson from this article...

Happy Christmas 2006

Best Wishes to everybody for the holidays. I'll be upgrading the site soon. If you're thinking of a new years resolution how about running 20 minutes 3 times a week... ?

6K Santa Run

Cold start to the day but the 6k santa run around Loughborough was great. Got a time of 27:20 averaged 7:43 min/mile for the race and came somewhere in the top 30 I think. Pictures here.

Weight and Running

An update on the running and weight loss! I'm now into weight maintenance not so much loss. The key here is to get weighed every week. If you put on just 1 lb every month, thats nearly a stone over a year! Me and my friend get weighed most weeks and keep the details in a google spreadsheet. I get differents weights on my scales at home, so these are all relative. I can loose 5llbs at different times of the day even.

I've embedded the sheet here direct from google spreadsheets.
