OB - zit still there, and it's now been joined by some little zit friends. How nice. Be my guest! Don't mind me. Must be having the teenage acne that I didn't get when I was a 'youth'.
Ooooh, got my Anglesey confirmation today. Very exciting. Is it time to start tapering yet??
Did my first race today, and my first hill race at that, multi terrain 7.1 miles 1200ft of climbing in a finishing temp of 29 degrees. Only walked some of the uphill though.
next one Tuesday night sounds similar. will check on the last entry date for Anglesey.
Postal closing for anglesey:Friday 16 September 2005
Came 8th lady in a v. hilly 10k yesterday... then collapsed in the heat...trip in an ambulance!
My own stupid fault really. In hindsight I realised that I should have kept moving rather than sitting down straight afterwards. ( I never normally do that!)
I'd say well done Sarah for 8th lady, but an ambulance trip-surely there are easier ways to get a lift in an ambulance? I did 47'47 on a flat 3 lap course so I got lapped by the first 3 finishers. Almost my slowest 10k but its nice to be able to put the effort in again.
Might of done the same but kept walking to find the bucket of water to stick my head in and also to find the Chafelets and steal the cold bottled water they had.
Were you released from hospital at 5AM then? and are you OK today?
Hadyn - was it you, a few pages back, talking about the dreaded forthcoming races? Well, good ol' York races were in full swing on Fri / Sat, and once again mor abuse for the little running lady with the dog.
Get this for a champion retort, to a group of what can only be described as 'Fred Elliots' - "Excuse me fellas, can I get past?" "No" "Can I get past please?" "Or what?? Whatcha gonna do" "Erm, I'll sweat on you and I've got plenty to go round!!"

Needless to say, they moved.
