Nah, break both collarbones and leave to starve
(in a humane and caring way, of course...)
kk, I hope you're right, but all the things that they said would happen haven't happened yet...and they haven't replied to my email from Friday...they've got to pull a rabbit out of the hat. i hope it's a game of two halves anfd that the Collision people dun brilliant; I knknow it's not over til the fat lady sings, but at the moment I'm sick as a parrot early doors...
Hmmmm sounds a bit crap Crash.
Lets be honest if there was any evidence on the side of the bus it would now have been cleaned off with the normal rota of cleaning the bus and now it'll probably just blend in with a hundred other dents on the side.
I does amaze me how often you see those witnesses sought, accident here signs go up 1 -2 months after the event ....whats the point???
I'd be tempted to ring the bus company up myself, find out what bus was there at that time etc.....but then you'd probably be arrested for getting in the way of a police invetsigation
Well done to all who competed in the Vitruvian. I am thinking of using this as my step-up to half ironman in 2009 - can anyone who did it for the first time this year provide some feedback on how they found it ie: how much they had to step-up their training, how much longer the run took compared to their normal 1/2 marathon times, how they enjoyed it (??) overall etc.
MM I did it for the first time this year. I probably didn't train enough and ended up walking lots of the run so maybe I am not the best person to answer specifically. That said I had a great time, it is a fantastic course (well apart from the weed in the water). The hills are ok if you have hills to train on. I would say make sure you do plenty of brick sessions. I was last to cross the finish line in 7:34. If I had pushed a bit harder I would have been inside 7:30 and if I had been able to do all the training I wanted I would maybe have been closer to 7 hours.
A great day out though and well worth it
Yep, I agree. First attempt at a middle of the back of a couple of sprints and an oly in the course of the year. Didn't train as much as I should've - couple of cycles per week, generally 2-3hrs and only a couple of 50 milers. Swam twice per week, one drills session with tri club, one OW. Running three times per week, one easy, one speedwork, one longish - 10-15miles. Run time on the day was 2:25; most recent HM time (in Mar) was 2:12ish. Overall was just under 7hrs.
It's a good day with lots of Pirate support and I'd certainly do it again.
