Introduction I've been running since May 2007 - I am new to it. Tried my hand at weight-lifting but gave up as it was frustrating - I'm a hardgainer, and wasn't getting far, despite hard work!!!! Found my passion in running, and am now doing marathons, with my ultimate aim being the Marathon des Sables in 2010. What is it about a racing event which stipulates the obligatory carrying of flares, anti-venom, and funeral insurance, yet drives one almost to distraction? I have never been so motivationally driven by any sport as I am being right now with the MdS. It's impossible to explain in words. But it's TRUE!!! Roll on 2010.
Interests Running (of course), deserts, meteorology, medicine (esp. anatomy and physiology), literarure, travelling.
Favorite Movies Fight Club, Dead Poets' Society, Monty Python's Life of Brian
Favorite Music Elton John, Alphaville, Enya, Eros Ramazotti
Favorite Books D.H.Lawrence, Books on running, Lord of the Rings

When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?

No, I worry more about seeing underwater goats with snorkels and goggles.
