Plodding Hippo - as you are on this thread ........... which I guessed you might be!! It was great to meet you on Sunday, even if I wasn't running this year. Thank you so much for taking the trouble to stop and say hello.
We know how Paula feels don't we, but all your advice and help you gave me last year resulted in a trouble free race.
Still having problems with my ulcerative colitis but when I race I know exactly how many immodium to take now. Long runs I just hope for a convenient hedge though not easy in winter when no leaves to provide discreet camouflage!!
Paula has really done all us runners a favour and highlighted what is only a natural occurrence when your body is subjected to so much stress ... perhaps race organisers might take notice and site more portaloos for marathons, half marathons and any other long races.
It was just a publicity stunt. She knew that merely winning a race wouldn't get the nation talking about her, and that she would have to come up with a gimmick.
You lot, of all people, should know that St Paula DOESN'T poo.
I'm reminded of a parallel in greyhound racing- a friend always backs the dog which evacuates last before the race commences; and she claims she keeps on winning.
Paula, you have a great strategy for setting records, stick with it girl!

Good!
Oh god - this episode and Athens were more reminders of what a bunch of complete f**kwits the 'Great British public' can be...
Wow. After more than 10 years, one of life's great mysteries finally gets flushed down the pan.
I may be able to sleep now without worrying about it.
If it had been flushed at the time we wouldn't have had all this trouble. Paula's poo caused the recession. Probably.
