Now I know that anyone who reads this is just going to love the following story. Whilst I am the first to admit we shouldn't get pleasure out of someones misfortune, check this out. Mrs. B has a twinge in her leg. We all have twinges in our legs so close to the marathon, but Mrs. B has gone one better and has them in both legs. But that 's not the good bit. Apart from her going to the physio this morning and him seemingly wiring her up to a frankinstein type machine and going to attend another patient, it seems he forgot about her and some time later returned to find a shaking, wobbling, Mrs. B not knowing whether she could get home in time to get Bedders Juniors to school in time. She had probably had more electricity sent through her in 30 mins than that provided to an average family via the national grid in a day. But even that is not the funny bit.
Mrs B played tennis today after this extraordinary physio session and has decided that running the marathon in a straight line may be too stressful on her legs. Running sideways is fine, but running in a straight line, not so fine. So she discussed the fact tonight (with a worryingly serious face on and before she had touched a drink) that it maybe better if she ran the London Marathon sideways, as this doesn't hurt her legs. Brilliant! Mrs. B doing a sort of "crab" for 26 miles in April will have TV cameras the world over clamouring for an interview.
BTW ran 10km tonight when I was not supposed to. Nevermind. Feels OK.
