AM- yeah no probs. I shall pick u up first then NI, so see you about 7.40, NI at 7.45
Whats you number NI? just in case. I will see you 7:45 at the junction where the Right turning for Wilbraham road is? Unless it is pissing down, in which case I can phone when I am outside your Gaff.
In 2007 I was running Sizzlers in just over 18min after doing 2:50 at London. Reckon if you can scrape under 18min at the next one and stay injury free up to Berlin you will see a big pb.
No, me and clairster are the new NIs. We are HADD training at the moment and putting in lots of slow miles but will be winning all the races before the year is out. And yes TST we were chatting and admiring the view and playing with marshals dogs and even tried a bit of extreme HADD ie walking. Well done sizzlers!
JMC, I see you were on the slow boil last night. You will have to run faster than that to beat me next time we race. Been concentrating on a "smoking" last 400 off a fast pace so watch your back.
I hope I can push a little harder at the next sizzler and get another pb. I deffo know that I am not a sub 3 mara runner, but it would be nice to get a pb at Berlin....and deffo know that I am not the next NI...
hoping to show my face at Strawberry Gardens this evening will have to be restrained though, as doing Moel Siabod fell race tomorrow

Kwaka- sorry but you are most definitely not the best race organiser now! Ian milne of the white peak races has e mailed me and clairster the black rocks results which he has reversed so that we came 3rd and 4th, well ahead of daz and gbm. Lol!
Can't remember last time I was as drunk as last night. In fact most people looked a bit worse for wear at the end of the night. Hope heads not too sore.
I have received a video of eric singing. I watched shooting stars last night and for the first time ever correctly guessed the song in the 'club singer' round. My newly acquired skill of song identification doesn't extend to erics unique style however!?!!
AM - My head is not too sore but I tend to deteriorate as the day goes on. There was definately a negative split on the drinking. Steady start followed by a sprint finish !
Comments
clairster - I went Ashbourne-Leek-Macc-Poynton - took me about 80mins to get home - did you go on the fair?
Clairster--Best flapjack ever!!!!!!
PPP, can I get a lift tomorrow - I'm in London but should be back in good time. If anything goes wrong will text.
Well done Black Rockers.
Well done to the Sizzlers last night as well. JMC - another sub 17 and giving Running Bob a run for his money.
Funk - was that another PB last night?
Mort, clairster - what hapeened at black rocks, were you chatting at the back
Minnie and Mickey spotted driving back roads to avoid detection, eating out rather than going to track.
mgmt says she will drive tonight
Great running Funk! Sub 18 next time for sure. Looking good for Berlin as well (hopefully you'll actually get to run it this time).
JMC-well done!
AM- yeah no probs. I shall pick u up first then NI, so see you about 7.40, NI at 7.45
Whats you number NI? just in case. I will see you 7:45 at the junction where the Right turning for Wilbraham road is? Unless it is pissing down, in which case I can phone when I am outside your Gaff.
hope to see all tonight
Funk - 18:03 5k time predicts 2:56 marathon time
In 2007 I was running Sizzlers in just over 18min after doing 2:50 at London. Reckon if you can scrape under 18min at the next one and stay injury free up to Berlin you will see a big pb.
Is Funk the new NI?
Funk--Brilliant time!!!! And thank you for pushing me further down the 5k PB league table.
Funk, great PB well done!
JMC, I see you were on the slow boil last night. You will have to run faster than that to beat me next time we race. Been concentrating on a "smoking" last 400 off a fast pace so watch your back.
AM - and when will that be?
Do you really think you can make up 30sec in the last 400?
Funk - Well done all that hard work is starting to pay off.
Try and make it tonight but if not see some of you on Sunday morning, it's looking like it might be a wet one.
Thanks everyone!!
I hope I can push a little harder at the next sizzler and get another pb. I deffo know that I am not a sub 3 mara runner, but it would be nice to get a pb at Berlin....and deffo know that I am not the next NI...

All-what a cracking night/morning, no point in going to bed, quick stretch, breakfast and then off to Bramhall
AM-have a good flight
Good to see everyone last night.
Eric- let us know what time you'll be at Furness Vale tomorrow.
Thanks for the run Funk/RC I ended up doing 14 miles, I went back along the canal
Can't remember last time I was as drunk as last night. In fact most people looked a bit worse for wear at the end of the night. Hope heads not too sore.
AM - My head is not too sore but I tend to deteriorate as the day goes on. There was definately a negative split on the drinking. Steady start followed by a sprint finish !
Expect tomorrow's run to be a bit a struggle.
