Oscar's Everyone Day

23rd June 2024
In 2021 Oscar the Grouch proposed one day each year where "we unite as a community and EVERYONE records an activity of some sort - a dog walk, a run, a swim, a ride, ski if you want...".

Sadly we lost Oscar in March, so I'd like to dedicate Everyone Day to him. Thank you for the inspiration you gave us Oscar.

About Me
I’m new to running, started May 2010 when I started training for the 2011 London Marathon. Just been introduced to this site (thanks Ian) and I think it's great.
My training so far has been a bit of a mess, mainly due to lack of knowledge, which is slowly increasing thanks to runners world and the web. I first started with some run/walk training, but then moved on to a 6 mile run far too quickly, and got really sore a shins (SHIN-SPLINTS) which I thought was normal. Just sore due to the new level of exercise, so I carried on until it got too sore to run, even walking was an effort. This has continued at varying degrees all the way through. If only I had known then what damage I was doing, I could have saved myself a lot of missed training and frustration.
In spite of that, I’m really starting to love running, something I never thought I would. I don’t think this will be my last marathon. That’s as long as I survive this one, lol. I’m trying to raise money for the BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION, please take a look justgiving.com
