Pegg welcome back, it looks like you had a fab time.
BI sounds lovely the water activities!
National club relays today, I was worried I would be the slowest in the team (I didn't know any of my team) but I wasn't, thank dog, in fact I was the fastest on the bike, which as you can see, I am chuffed about. I don't know about this short fast swim malarky, I'd rather do the longer swims any day!
10 mile road race in Chesterfield tomorrow, just to kill myself off!
and finally a quick bone to pick with S'berry
CBA's, no chance, get you back side ingear, you ahve a challenge soon, don't you?
BI sounds like a fun evening was had by all
Pegg hope that means you had all the sun and it will be cooler when I go
RP very well done on the relay and good luck tomorrow
I'm scared now RP wants to pick one of my bones
OH went out with a mountain biker group today and managed to fall off twice - came home with cuts down both legs. My man is really accident prone, I swear he has more scars than skin on his shins! Told him to put some plasters on the worst ones. otherwise he'll get blood all over his bed sheets. The worst cuts are really oozing.
Tomorrow is the annual bike day for our area, the main road ( about 60 miles) is closed to cars from 10am until 6pm and all the way along there are food and drink stalls and other attractions. Huge all-day fest! Last year the police estimate of participants was 30,000 people!
Well the CBA's have definitely been sent packing. Just finished my run this morning 25k done and dusted (even did an extra 1k
But now I enter the world of taper madness
hope you had a good day BI, ouch for your other half
well done on the run s'berry, good luck with the taper
i ran 7 mile's this morning the longest run this year, now heading down the sea front to see the east coast trucker's drive through
Sounds like a great day BI
Good running Sberry - the adrenaline will take you the rest of the way I'm sure
Well done Q for the run. I hope this afternoon was fun?
Congrats on the fastest cycle RP. I hope the race went well today?
M was possessed by demons this morning and dragged me out of bed at 7am for a run
. Just under 3 miles, to see how my foot coped but he through in a hill 'just to test it properly'. I did it - my first run since early June! Now I've got tight hamstrings but the foot coped well. I need to see the doc though, as the tendon damage is still making my foot and leg jump around randomly. It's annoying me, but now it's annoying M too just sitting next to me!!
Pegg M ran with you at 7am?
BI that cycle sounds lovely, I wish they did one here.
Race went better than expected. It was rather hilly, 3.5 miles up hill, 0.25miles down, another big hill followed by a mile steady climb, then 3 miles down hill, another big hill then flat for the rest of it, 10 miles in 1hr 28 mins and a negative split to boot.
well done on the run pegg, hope you get the tendon's sorted soon
well done on the race RP
RP - that's a great time for such a hilly run, really good going. Yep he ran with me. Or in front of me, I should say. He's threatening to get an elastic band to go around both of us to make me go faster
. I think 7am tomorrow has been mentioned... 
Thanks Q. I had a bit of a sit on the roller this evening which helped a bit. Maybe a sports massage would help
I just can't decide what to do today!
Hello all
Pegg - well done on your run, foam roller should help!
Cabby - how is your return to running going?
I started my day with accupuncture, now hope to make the most of having hubby home so I can try and rest my ankle. Two weeks on and not getting any better. Haven't been able to get a physio appointment (at least not one I can get to) as my daughter hasn't been too good and didn't want to leave her for long. Appointment now booked for Friday!
anybody there?
Talking of which I had an amazing boxing session last night
Well done on the hilly race RP great time
Pegg how is your foot? Well done on the early run. I'm planning on using the elastic band on some poor unknowing body for them to drag me up the mountain
S'berry aaw bless, I take it she enjoyed herself?
I'm really not feeling well, I have sensitive teeth and a sore face on one side. I have had a trip to the dentist, twice and now the doctors. Dentist diagnosed thin enamel on my teeth but couldn't explain the sore face. Doctor hasn't got a clue and suggested the dentist
wtf. Now on anti b's and work hassling me to go back, but it is just to painful when the breeze gets my teeth, talking, eating also trigger intense pain. I'm feeling very sorry for myself
Yes she enjoyed herself loads, but was pleased to come home
hope you get sorted quickly RP
Missed you all as haven't had much computer time lately.
Wow S'berry... It's almost time. I tell you, that's flew over. I bet you missed A'berry after 7.5 weeks away?
Boo to the poorly face RP, hope you get it sorted. I see you're still cycling ridiculous distances. Well done. How is the mars training going?
Glad to hear your foot is improving Pegg. That's the thing about feet... If they aren't quite right you're pretty knackered. Great to hear yours is on the mend
Hi to Mad, Q and anyone else around (apologies, only read this page). I'm up to 6 minutes run and 2 mins walk (only to a mile) but I reckon I could run a mile now but everyone around me is taking the over cautious approach and making me come back slowly. I am told that my previous fitness will enable me to get back fit really really quick.... Here's hoping so, I have entered a marathon for December 2nd
Great news that you're on the comeback trail Cabbey
How are you feeling today RP?
Well I've just finished my last run over here, my next run will be in the mountains
I'm looking forward to it in a strange way, but am also terrified as well
great news cabbey good luck for the marathon
good running s'berry, you'll be fine for it
7 mile's this morning, everything seem's to clicking just nicely right now
Wow S'berry... Running at altitude next. Can't wait to hear how you get on. You've worked hard and deserve the best result
Hi all
CabbeyWhat mara have you entered?. what mara training? haven't done any at all, i'm gonna blag it. If I can do a half ironman, a mara will be a doddle ( fingers crossed!)
Hence all the stupid bike distances
still feeling sh*t, at least I can eat and the breeze isn't affecting it now. (climbing the walls was not nice) I think the infection is quite deep routed and my body is fighting it, all my glands are up. Anti b's must be working..just not fast enough!
Mr RP dragged me out of bed this morning to go watch him do a tri, he came 2nd and I bumped into Doctor Pixie from 'embarrasing bodies' whilst there.
Eeek it is less than a week till the HIM...not panicking really
Well I'm all packed and ready to go, I currently in a "let's just get this over and done with" mood I'm sure that will change several times in the next few days!!
RP hope the antibiotics are working well and good luck for your HIM, not that you need it
Q you're coming back strong
Hope that you are all well and training goes well and I'll see you when I return
good luck s.berry
good luck all!
