[Deleted User]

its a Pixie gadget!!

[Deleted User]

Wow, just checked the link. how dinky is that?!

[Deleted User]

its only 10 quid too !

[Deleted User]

Pix is the gadget queen, isn't she.

[Deleted User]

if you phone that is and say its in the triathlon brochure thats with this months rw

[Deleted User]

£10? It says £18 on the website, where did you get yours from?

[Deleted User]

she is !!

[Deleted User]

Oh ok, I get you. that will be the brochure that I threw out :-)

[Deleted User]

its reduced - im hoping they still have them in stock

i can power walk with hand weights !!! (not)

[Deleted User]

I'm quite tempted by that. But I'm extremely broke and on a very tight budget for a couple of months. Plus I just melted £30 of glucosamine (well no, there's about a fiver's worth that can be salvaged!!)

[Deleted User]

there were lots of good bargains in there - i think bourne sports do a lot of good deals - i know they get slated for their sloppiness but if you get your kit you can get a bargain

[Deleted User]

You see, I see that little cute rucksack and I'm tempted. But the fact of the matter is that I already have small hand weights and do I ever take them out with me - do I heck. although I have considered it in case I need to beat off muggers as a half kilo weight inside your fist would be more use than a water bottle.

I am, of course, aware that this is highly illegal and would never take weights out with me on a run, intending to bash someone with them...

[Deleted User]

well i had a very indulgent spend - just keep my fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong with the medical for my job!!

[Deleted User]

Hmmmm, might be worth looking to see if I put that catalogue in the recycle bin rather than in the bin-bin then...

[Deleted User]

Ooh, cool, what's the new job? (haven't been around for a while)

[Deleted User]

just what you had to hand at the time scamps ?

i was on the way to my baseball class officer ....

[Deleted User]

physiotherapy assistant (NHS) on cardiac rehab excercise programme !!

[Deleted User]

assisting the physio who runs classes for peeps who have heart attacks, surgery etc - hospital physio dept based

[Deleted User]

not much money - its part time too - but a really interesting and exciting opportunity for a career change

[Deleted User]

Bune , I'm seriously thinking about getting a coach pack , I reckon I can squeeze some jelly babays and an mp3 player in that pocket

Also at £10 i was going to get a platy anyway

[Deleted User]

Well I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Bune, but I'm sure all will be well. that sounds great!

Ah no officer, I only wear the weights wrapped around my hands because these 'l-o-v-e h-a-t-e' tattoos are just *so* passe now..

[Deleted User]

tee hee

runaid bottles filled with polyfilla !


yes mercs - for a tenna it s a steal really - 32 fl oz bladder i think

[Deleted User]

this catalogue is hilarious. what about those vests with the back pockets - 'Just right to mush that energy bar against your shoulder blades, or your mates can run a pool on how many seconds before all three bars fly out of the vest and land in a puddle behind you'

and as for those all in one 'competition body suits' - euurgh.

[Deleted User]

32 floz is 1 litre yes ?

[Deleted User]

i might take a cd player out to listen to tunes when im walking

[Deleted User]

I'm always interested to see that bourne sports still have that "mature" model in there. Maybe its mr bournes mummy !

[Deleted User]

And as for a "Powerbar bandana" - surely they should be paying people to wear them, rather than asking for a tenner from us?

[Deleted User]

dunno - 20 is apint ?

have you found it then scamps ?

[Deleted User]

32 floz is more than enough for a quick half marathon anyway
