Question No

 Question Answer
1 Name Mark Ludiman
     
2 Occupation Chartered Surveyor or land agent depending on who i'm talking to.
     
3 Home Pearmain , Thirkleby
     
4 Favourite Distance I tend to enjoy longer races because the sense of satisfaction at the end is huge so i'll say 10 miles +
     
5 Best Running Moment Going really well 25 miles in to the Lyke Wake last year until we realised we were lost but then getting back on track and climbing back up to 20th with horrible conditions under foot or Gisbrough Moors 2006. It was just one of those occasions when i felt i could have run and run and the weather included blizzards.
     
6 Worst Running Moment Any run when i set out too fast and know the end result will be a lot of pain and a slow time. Wharfdale Marathon this year fits the bill.
     
7 Favourite Training I love long slow distance with hills. It's made me the long slow runner i am today. It's also more sociablewhen done with friends.
     
8 Local training Area Kilburn Woods and around Sutton Bank , Osmotherly if i can be bothered to drive but generally anywhere with hills, the rougher the better.
     
9 Other Interests Anything outdoors, shooting, fishing, walking, skiing and mountain biking.
     
10 Running Aspirations I would love to run a "quick" marathon maybe 3 hours 15 minutes or thereabouts but if you like long runs and hills a Bob Graham Round has to top the list.
