This particular feature was named by Chris Moyles.

Scott will be running one mile every day from 15th March 2010, but the mile will have an evil twist each day!!

Listeners will no doubt be able to donate online and via text (the same as for the cycle ride).

Good luck everybody!! :-)

He has indeed cut out the drink!! He is just having lime soda (I think it's lime soda).

He managed to be out in pubs, have people drinking around him, and not touch a drop.

Now that is blooming discipline!!

I was actually feeling quite cross this morning, when Scott said he ran 8 miles in just over an hour... it took me 1 hour and 20 minutes this morning to run 3 miles. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Yeah, he did..... couldn't do that ever.

It actually used to take me longer to run, but you get to the stage (the more you practice) that you can keep running for longer.

I knew I had a cappuccino with whipped cream + chocolate at the end of it, which was my motivation. Tee hee.

Surely not? If you're actually running it can't take that long. It wouldn't take that long to walk three miles.

Excuse me, I am an older listener, and lucky I can run at all. :):):) It used to take a lot longer.

I also stopped 3 times to stuff my face with mint chocolate sweets. :hahaha:

That is odd, Lee (above)...... you've pretty much had a premonition then.

... and a haggis, full English breakfast with pot of tea, a MaccyD's... ;)

You can get treatment for that nowadays............ :D

Are you a Doctor/chemist? You seem to know all these treatable conditions (and could probably do a better diagnosis than some of the utter quacks around here :rolleyes:)

:D;):P

by the way Viv, when are you doing your run ?

March 21st 2010 (Sunday) when all the S. R. runs take place across the U.K. Doing the Kilmarnock mile, the town where Chappers & Dave did their stuff a couple of years ago!!

Event begins at 12 and finishes around 2:30 pm, I believe???

Have done all roads now: the country roads; the hills; the seaside route; the road along the coast with a force 10 gale in my face..... :-)

Today = rocks + steps - though I'm not quite sure why I'm doing that, as there will be no rocks + steps in the park.

Anyway, Moyles said this morning that he wishes to find out at the same time as Scott what the "mile from hell" will be.

Imagine if it's running through mud?? Scott should hate that. Jo Whiley always says his trainers are immaculate.

Jo Whiley will also be running 3 miles this year... she began her training yesterday, March 7th.

God, so you're starting at 1030 for your six miles!! OMG!! That's only the time approx. we were told to be arriving at the Park.

Anyway, back to R1's efforts:-

Scott has been running and boxing with a new trainer... :-)

Greg James will shortly be sorting out a Sport Relief page, where listeners will be able to donate!! Great stuff :-)

Check out just some of his training by visiting Greg's blogs on the R1 website!! www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/

Scott has now been running through Hyde Park, with lycra shorts on, a helmet and a codpiece, feeling rather silly!! Must be quite a sight!!

To find out what a codpiece is, fact fans, click on the link:-

www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codpiece - you learn something new everyday, even things you would really rather not know!!

* I am currently injured - not that anyone will care, but I have done my shoulder and neck in, and am currently covered in Ibulieve * - at least it's this week, where I have time to get better.

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      By xxladybarefootxx · Posted

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
