Tarzan's Half Bananathon (Saturday August 23rd)

Practice makes perfect, as they say. Well I can't claim that Tarzan's Bananathon will be perfect, but make sure the concept runs smoothly, next Saturday August 30th we are having a dummy run in the shape of Tarzan's Half Bananathon. A half marathon distance run around Marple, Disley and New Mills calling at some of the area's finest hostalries en route to raise funds for Leukaemia Research.
You can see a map of the route here. I have pictures of all the venues here on the blog, including a beauty of Bananaman Faz and Simon outside The Crown.
It starts at 6pm and finishes at 9pm at The Railway in Rose Hill, Marple where my lovely sister-in-law Louise Makin is at the helm for the week. The run is half and half trail and road with sections along The Middlewood Way and Peak Forest Canal.

We will be running at 9 minute mile pace with ten minutes a throw at each of the venues and then stuff going on when we arrive back at the Railway.
