At Marketing our first agency Christmas party took place a fortnight ago. And for many of us the next month or two the liver will take more of a pounding than the running shoes, but it's all just part of the training...
Next May sees the sixth annual Marathon de Blaye Cote de Bordeaux. Like any marathon its 42km of hurt, but en-route you stop at 20 wine stations for a glass of red or white. I doubt your doctor would agree but in order to beat the 6 hour time limit you'll need to get some boozing in shapish to build up enough resistance.
We've got some great events in the UK, but do we have any that can match this one!?
We should find out shortly as the Sport Industry Awards has announced its revamped awards ceremony with three new award categories, including Sport Participation Event of the Year.
My vote would go to the Marketing Industry Triathlon. You've got until 11 December to get your entries in. Last year's event saw appearances from Joe Calzaghe, Jenson Button and James DeGale among others. Next years event on 13 May should prove even more spectacular.
