    Hello all

    HL - What are you going to see? I'm going to the Athletics on Sunday. image

     

    I have a new 5k pb 21:18. I think these hills/sprint sessions are actually working. You just have to get used to running at the point of being sick. imageimage

    I have Pride the Lion, he sits inbetween my 2 seats in the car, attached to the airflow so he can view the road. image. So far he keeps smiling, so he must like my driving.image

    Same here....thats why I bought said Telly....at least i dont have far to go for a cup of coffee and a choice of snacks in the heat intervals. Waves flag....!!  

    A new pair of run shoes arrived today. Nike Free Run+3, I had to send back Lunaracer I bought 3 weeks ago. Less cutting edge technology and more cutting skin...Yeeouch!! image (they changed the shoe style/material).  I am hoping these are OK. It took me 2 hours of online/phone calls to sort which was the best.....will post my review tomorrow after I have run. image

    Haven't been on here for ages, what with holidaying and not running a lot, and seeing what most of you are up to via Facebook. I missed the whole de-spamming incident as a result.

    I have been on and I missed the spamming incident too.image 

    Morninja SVT, image Morning All. image imageimage

    OK so why am I smiling like a Cheshire Cat.

    I am a Welsh Champion & Nth Wales Champion for 10K (again)

    It was a late decision to enter, emailed Selection Manager for Nth Wales for an entry form on the 23rd. he sent the form and put my name down for both. The 10K was the Welsh Champs incorporating Nth Wales Champs and Inter Regionals.

    Bank Holiday weekend I felt ill, must be the paint fumes i thought (see above post).by Wednesday I was feeling very sick, plus I couldnt get my club vest back of someone I had lent it too. Friday I told my friend I was dropping out (I felt that ill), however friday night I had a call from selection manager, someone else had dropped out of the master's team, wear my Nth Wales vest Sunday...OMG!!! AM not well.image He said *Just do your best, besides you run better when your'e not well Lex*.

    I felt hot on the day, the drizzle at Caernarfon had stopped and the Sun had come out. Oh NOoo.image

    However, I pulled something out of the bag, won my age group in both races (Gold Medals) We won the Team Gold in the Inter Reginals, I was first back in he team (Another Gold). plus I did a PB  40.54 (my last race , last year 41.26) plus I have broken the Welsh Record/Nth Wales record for my age group. imageimage Oh yes and won a trophy+towel in the open race for first in age group. image

    Feel Sicky today

    Hello

    Lexi - Congratulations, ell the best runs come when you don't feel up to it.

     

    I am a bit tired. We went to the athletics at the Paralympics last night so I didn't get to bed until 3am. It was a brilliant evening where we got to a British gold medal awarded, got to see Oscar P. lose for the first time at 200m (but missed out on all the controversey) and then for the last event GB won the gold in the 5k. My voice is only just recovering. image

    Yay Ant - glad you had a great time.



    Lexi - congratulations image



    Today I woke up wondering what world-class sporting competition I was going to see...



























    ...and then remembered that I wasnt but I did have manual handling training!

    The 5k was an amazing event, it was just as Mo Farah's 5k has been described with a wave of sound travelling around the stadium until the roof started to lift as David Weir took the lead with 100m to go.

    Gosh SVT  'You {{RAN}} on a {{MONDAY}} image are you poorly??? image 

    Morning ALL...image

    I was at Silverstone over the weekend, well not ALL weekend, Saturday instead of watching the GT Qualifiers (Mazda MX5GT racing car) we (some friends+son) diecided to go to Santa Pod to watch the Drag Racing... OMG!!!!! What a fab day. However i think I have damaged my hearing....image. They had Jet engine cars going for it, Motoerbikes traveling at 199mph and the fastest over the short distance?  was 268mph in 5.4 seconds.  There was stunt bikes and big big trucks. Certainly a good day out for anyone. 

    Sunday I was invited by Mazda to go watch the MX5 race. Unfortunately the dif caught fire the day before, causing some damage, still not quite sorted, Sunday it blowing a nearside tyre and then had to be pulled out. Disappointed, but te racing was still great with formula 3 cars there. VW  Championships (they had a police car in the race)I suppose he was there to pull anyone over for speeding. image 

    I drove my friend's new  Mitsubushi 4x4 home so they could enjoy the hopsitality drinks, I had to remember it wasn't my MX5. image

    HLad did his first athletics "meet" at the weekend - long jump, shot and 800m - an eclectic miximage. He had a great time and set 3 PBsimage. Mind you the starting pistol got me every time!! Very well organised and great to go on a bus!
  • Options

    Well done to HLad for doing PB's on his first meet. image 

    if the starting pistol has you jumping, goodness what you would do at the Drag Racing HL. image The guys there must be nuts, jet engines in saloon cars...Eeek!!!!

    Flip Musky...you must be wondering round like a Zombie today image. Perhaps no running is on your books I would presume for the next 24hrs. image 

    Whilst staying at the hotel I went for a run Saturday night, I got lost...10 mile lost, finally found the Hotel, it was really dark and i was getting worried. image
