  • Ha ha Love the "stool".

    Weather getting worse here, glad I went out when I did.  Not looking forward to tomorrows run, thankfully not too far, but it's certainly going to be cold.

    emailed you a photo ATM.....not sure if it will work though.

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    Yep, it's a good photo of Howey's stool..

    I seem to be able to receive messages through the forum but can't send any. Maybe, I'm being edited to shut me up....image Anyway, I'm adding all the numbers I get to my list.

    No email, yet, Onetit.

    wi, do you want me to add any details to your photo?

    Oh dear... I've just got the picture that ATM posted image I thought it was a bit strange you posting a picture of furniture!

  • Jimbob - at the very least you and I need to swap pens, although I'm in need of the pink...
  • yer majyer maj ✭✭✭

    ATM the messaging thing doesn't seem to be working...you've already got my mobile number though....

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    image@ Emmy . A couple of years ago, when you couldn't even limbo under the low tone of a discussion on ' the perfect jobby', Howey posted a picture of his stool...

    Thanks for the list, DV. Anyone want their stats added?

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    Will add you, yermaj.

  • might have the wrong email address for you ATM - have you changed it from before?

    not sure how to add photos to the messaging on here.  x

  • if you put a message in and send, then do it again, it seems to work - but it's dodgy today for sure

     

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    I'm at atmparis75  at   yahoo   dot  com  It's easier if you send me a jpeg and bib number/time goal.I'll add the details and upload * old address abandoned after endless spam..although I rather miss my prospective Russian brides..*

  • IM2 - i'm going to be trying for the purple - almost tempted by the blue, but i think that might be a bit pressurizing. Purple is where i'm at for the moment as long as i can convince them of my speed - i'll show them the result at Silverstone, but if all else fails i'll stay in grey. You've still a bit of time to find some speed eh? Sub2 halves/1.45 pb, surely you can squeeze a sub4 even if you are not at your best ..... ? the main thing is, we're there! nearly 5000 brits at Paris this year i've read somewhere!

    AtM - you should have all my contact details and vital stats image

  • ATM - I think you already have my mobile no. Its the same as last year.

    I will need to change pens too.........to the pink I think but first I need to sort medical certificate.

    10 mile run straight after work, and I must admit it felt 'good' for the first time in ages. Took first half easy, then 2nd half at 4hr pace.....and it was hilly!!! Pleased with that as I know that after work my legs are tired.image

  • Hi JB: Yep. Managed a 10km run today with lots of yucky hills. Not like me to drink on a school night (or at all, actually). Must be something about the northern hemisphere...

    ATM: I'll message you my details - different mobile number.

    TD:Am I on your Pasta Papa's list?

    Kaz: you are a machine! Well done! It must feel great to be "back" (not that you were ever really gone!).

     

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    Got those numbers .Thanks.

    * Father Jack woz robbed...*

    yeh..   and 4986 of those are with yer_maj

  • ATMATM ✭✭✭

    kaz, my pc ate your number. Can I have it again please?

    Jimbob, I have your inside leg measurements...of  course...but not your mobile image

  • Eww! There must be history behind that stool pic *shudders to think*



    Peter - I've been training with Crosbie Crew there on tues nights when work permits, and then round the tan before work/lunchtimes when time permits.



    I very ambitiously signed up for blue, partly because I thought I could train and push for sub 3:30 and partly because blue is my fav colour... He he he I'm thinking green or purple might be a little more realistic for my first mara, but not nearly as pretty! Hey, I'm a girl, partial to changing my mind AND pretty things!
  • M_Maus. Yes you are on that list. Safe. image

  • PC -PC - ✭✭✭
    Does it matter which pen we are in? I'm in green (4h+? ) but hoping to finish sub 4h (purple?) . People are going to have good/bad days, others are going to start t too fast. Plus there are waves. +/- a pen?



    Taper madness. I've been following the site and i've read back. What is the difference between normal madness and taper madness? "This thread contains nuts!".

    That was *quite* funny.

    Have a muffin.

    You'll find out next week image

  • Eggyh73Eggyh73 ✭✭✭

    Either Sunday has taken out me or the last five weeks of trying to get marathon fit have, but that's two nights in a row I've had next to nothing in the tank when running. I managed to get another 9 miles in tonight, but really did feel like I was shuffling rather than running.

    I need to change pen. I'm not in purple shape and don't want the mental slap in the face of everyone flying past me all race. I'm not sure what colour I should be. There's no peely wally pen!

    Phew! Otherwise I'd be Billy No Mates (well, more than normal...)

  • Think I will be avioding the forum next week..........I have another week before taper starts and you lots madness may just send me over the edge!!!image

     

  • When you speak about time on your feet in training.........does it have to be running or does walking count??image
