Run Berlin 2008


Back in December I had a little gem of an idea. That little gem was to run a marathon, in particular the Berlin marathon, with my sister-in-law.

Now as I sit here with burning thighs, sore nips and chaffing in places I'd rather not mention that idea is looking less like a gem and more like a piece of dirty gravel. Nevertheless, my name is down, sponsorship has started coming in and there's no going back now.

Being a web designer what am I to do with all these new challenges. Well I've done what any self respecting web designer would do - i've create a blog. Not just any old blog but a tumblelog at Tumblr. Where Tumblr places itself is somewhere between full on blogging tools such as blogger/wordpress which lean towards lenghty articles and microblogs like twitter/jaiku. Tumblr allows the user to quickly add a particular media type from choose of 7 basic forms of media. It rocks.


If you're a generous soul who's just looking to sponsor me you can do so at my bmy charity page. Thanks.

You can also keep a track of how the blog is fairing on Command Shift 3 too. It doesn't seem to get into too many battles but when it does it seems to do alright.

Zhoodles

Thought I'd just give a little mention to something I've dedicated a little of my free time to. Some of us in the team win Gold medals at the Ultimate Frisbee European Championships (Joe M), others of us take money off Joey Barton at online poker (no mentions), I run a food blog. Its called Zhoodles and it is slowly building into a collection of free recipes.

Saag Paneer anyone?
