Perfect Training Routine...Not




Last 2 weekends I have had 2 stag do's both for my bro, which have really helped me wind down my training before the big day.


Our alternative training methods began by drinking at 10AM on the coach to Potter Heigham, where we picked up our vessel and accommodation for the weekend, the Caribbean Light 3. Eight Lads, one boat, 2 toilets, set sail on the Norfolk Broads dressed in sailor outfits. Quality.


Exercise routines included Mini Golf on a Pirate Ship at Great Yarmouth, the most excellent Quaser Laser experience and dancing in a cheesy disco. I was proud to be on the winning side at Quaser Laser, scoring 6000 points alongside brother Rob, (5500 points) Tom 'Top Gun' Buckley (12,000 points)and Will 'Human Shield' Smith. (100 points) That's not a typo, he actually did only score 100 points when everyone else scored at least 5000. Loser.

So I'm all set now, 6 days to go, all the training is in the bag so all I have to do is rest up and eat, my favorite 2 parts of marathon training. Oh, and register at the Excel centre to collect my number and timing chip and stuff.

Second stag do was tame by comparison, drinking in the city of London until the early hours, we did get some female attention, some wanted, some unwanted. We saw one of Alan Sugar's Apprentices, the American one who describes herself as a 'Rough tough cream puff' and some horrible woman who thought she could impress us by pouring water all over herself in a wannabe-sexy way!

Roll on the marathon
