Club vests never ever fit properly, seems to be the rules. Mine were always too short, then I moaned about it so the new ones are comedically long and everyone now hates me!
There was was a cancellation so my MRI is on Monday - less than a fortnight after the injury. Gawd bless the NHS.
Hurrah! Glad you can get your MRI sooner, McF.
The position of the logo seems the problem, it's too high!
When we all turn up at races trying to be as light as possible, it seems a bit of a blimmin oversight!
talking of being lightweight, I bought some ronhill racer shorts last week and they are even smaller and lighter than my innov8 racers. I trialled them on my lunchtime run on Tuesday and it looked like I was basically running in a t shirt. I then had a dream last night that I was on the start line at London and I had completely forgotten to apply my anti-chaffing cream. It was one of those scary dreams you are more than happy to wake up from!!
Mcf, that is good news. My experience of the nhs (beyond the annoyance of trying to get basic appointments) is when something proper needs doing they are brilliant.
I suppose there is no obligation to wear club gear in any non club events though, and it's probably more user friendly than the fuss i'm making
You can send it back if it still has the label on apparently...
whoops.
what you're saying reminds me of the vests charities provide to their event runners. They appear designed to generate sweat, akin to racing in a bag.
Funny how quickly you embrace it.
I'll have to dig a pic out of this "vest", it's in no way a vest!
This new club has some pretty fast guys though, so it obviously doesn't make too much odds.
Will race tomorrow's mile in one of my "proper" skimpy vests, and check a pal's "small" before deciding to grin and bear it, or try and start "re-attaching" the label, or even just buying a new one in small and keep that for racing short stuff, and the other for other stuff!
Muddy - you were a diehard t-shirter util recently. Good to see you've embraced the baring of flesh now.
Slightly disappointed that I'm not doing Warwick HM with you chaps this weekend. I decided to do Milton Keynes instead as a HM pb attack, but I'm not feeling particularly lively after my holiday, so will probably run it as a long MP session and save the pb attack for Coventry in a couple of weeks.
Could she not have run it the right way and not saved it but then got a new hoody to wear with the trousers? Or even sacrificed the trousers for a hoody?
Good session, DT. If you reach a critical mass of sports hoodies (Peak Hoody) does that mean we will cease to see the fashion knitwear on the start line? That would make me sad.
If course not as sports hoodys don't have the same fashion life cycle as fashion knitwear. I have a classic piece for Sunday.
Anyone worked out why some posters have *** after their names?
But it changes from thread to thread...I have them on here, as does McFlooze, but I don't have them on my other thread, yet many do!
Anyway, have a good run tomorrow all. Day off work, so am off to do a lunchtime 1miler!
2hours round trip, for around 5mins of erm misery. Although if there's strong wind like this week, I might get more time for my money!
That is an expensive mile. However you get what you pay for I guess. I did the local charity mile on the beach next to my inlaws on new years day.
Free entry for a 0.85 mile "race" where 70% of the people walked it... And I came second to a 12 year old lad.
Interesting thought, Rich. You could be a bully big balls on one thread but a nobody elsewhere.
Lit, I think undulations are much less apparent when running at easy.
3.3+11 for me yesterday. I had the ignominy of being attacked by one of those big fluffy poodles in the early morning run.
I know you double Stevie sometimes with an early mornimg amd lunch run. You obviously find the time between runs sufficient but what seems.to work for me is either a 7am/6pm or a 12pm/9pm pattern. I read somewhere advice about leaving 8 hours between runs and wondered if you'd had any Moraghan advice about your scheduling.
How do others manage doubles ?
I did 13 last night and my legs are still feeling really stiff and uncoordinated.
i don't do doubles muddy.
I think a few quid for a mile is reasonable. £38 for a 10k definitely not.
