RUN

Hello. My name is Neil Witherow a.k.a. Mr Spoons (hence the blog title). I'm a music-loving, ground-hopping, yellow hose-spotting, ukulele-playing, 50 Something, Crystal Palace fan from Beckenham... Six years ago, I took up running (well, more like jogging in my case) to help with the recovery from a knee op and the weight loss program I was on... From being the fat kid at school who was last in every race and who absolutely despised cross-country runs, I've somehow come to enjoy running, even in the mud. This new found love has culminated in me running Marathons. My school teachers, who used to berate me for being so ridiculously late back from those cross country runs, would be truly shocked if they knew. I'm still not fast, but I get there.
