We (as in Team ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2008/08/17/the-olympics/ Well, fortunately not.  Is this blog dead?  You may have thought so but (un)fortunately not ;) I am very aware - and reminded frequently - that I have neglected my poor little blog the past few months.  Many reasons (admittedly mostly involving my putting one foot in front of the other ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2007/09/30/am-i-dead/ Well, another age has passed since I last blogged and I thought it prudent to post a little about my trip to Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida a few weeks back.  I was there with my best friend, Carole and her husband, Mark and their daughter (our goddaughter) Alice Rose.  They flew out ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2007/04/25/disneyworld-orlando/ Wow!  We have had the most amazing and bizarre couple of days in Jamiroquai-land!  If you will bear with me, a brief synopsis will follow...it all started a few weeks back when I got a 'phone call to say I had won seats on the "Gig in the Sky" 'plane.  ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2007/03/02/an-unforgettable-couple-of-days/ OK, so David had a rusty old bike (16 years old, about 3 feet too small for him) to ride to the station on as he was fed up of his lovely bike getting nicked...on Boxing Day he decided enough was enough of riding the teeny tiny thing and went ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2007/02/02/good-valuemethinks-not/ Wow!  I was emailed earlier by one of the guys we know who does the BPTT regularly (and also does lots on the website) to ask if I would allow my 10k race report from earlier today to be included on the BPTT website. Here's a link to my "hero" page...I ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2007/01/07/im-a-hero/ ...was today!

Naturally, we started Christmas Day with a run at the Bushy Park Time Trial, along with about another 160+ crazy people! ... http://www.sharonrowe.co.uk/2006/12/25/merry-christmas/ I was today reminded that it has been a long time since I wrote a blog entry, so I thought I would do a quick update for my five readers (yes, I have one more now!
