Run Dobie Run :: London to Scotland - August 2009

Another tough day of running but Andrew is still managing to run through the pain barrier.  Once again Andrew goes on about home cooked food and his expectations of Chris when he returns tomorrow…how disappointed he will be!

It has been a tough day for Andrew and his legs.  He finally makes it to York but camperless.  The teapots broken so there goes the deposit on the van!

More cake, 82 year old woman with nice legs, steak dinners, northern people, washing up, Andrew’s watch, campness, his mothers sexual practices, swinging….this episode has it all!  If you like Peep Show, you will like tonights viewing.

The 10th Day!

Today’s video is “FANTASTIC”!  Please do not watch this video if you live in or around Doncaster as Andrew reviewed your home town from some random carpark - I’ve been there and it’s really quite nice!

Oh crumbs, has someone left Andrew with a camera?  If you have been able to survive the 2 hours of black at the start of the video, you are in for a treat.  Plastic caps, cups of tea, the beard, internet access…oh and he does mention the running once I think.  Enjoy the Day 8.

A very short day that saw the temporary departure of Chris and the arrival of Janet, Andrew’s mother.

A much easier day for Andrew and he finally gets his bath…probably not suitable for kids or elderly relatives!

It wasn’t a good nights sleep for Andrew and the early morning start…didn’t happen.  Thankfully we passed Melton Mowbray which was piefect - just what he needed!  A day of ups and downs;  we had to say goodbye to Dave but 2 good runs took him to the 150kM mark, finishing just outside Bingham near Nottingham.

A great day for fundraising and some amazing views as we make our way up the country. The running is going well although Dave pushed Andrew to the limit on leg 3.

Many thanks to The Berkely Arms pub and restaurant in Wymondham for letting me use their internet tonight.
