Lesley definetely won't miss me lol. (Me and my big mouth)
Take care
I hope the foot will be ok. Basically from what the physio says i havent been running in-line withmy knee so everytime i run the muscle under my ankle is being stretched across as my leg is colapsinmg inwards. Anyway... i think thats the situation. He just said rest it so i am.
Jut a bit worried that i might not be able to run for another week. That'll be two weeks without any exercise! Not ideal!
You mentioned that your sisiter in law had four weeks off prior to the marathan? I might end up being in a similar situation becuase i havent run since March 26th and cant see mtself running until at least next Sunday at best. Maybe the Sunday after. That'll be three weeks without any running and only a week to go until the big day!
Any thoughts?
I'm just going to ride my bike to keep turning over and see how it goes. i still feel fine about FLM - so should you, Alistair.
And stick with it, El C - you'll be reet.
I'll just keep myself ticking over on the bike and in the pool then.
Thanks very much
Alistair
Thats helps a lot
All the best with your training
Alistair
have been reading the PHAB thread for months and just thought I would pop in and say hello to eveyone. I am running for PHAB this year and the 23rd can't come soon enough (sorry, I know some would disagree) hope all your injuries and set backs sort themselves out before the big day.

Just checked the FLM website and oh my god only 19 days 20 minutes and 53 seconds until the day!
I have made a conscious decision that from this day on I will push any negative thoughts out of my mind when they appear, and will not read or enter into any negative conversations. My brother-in-law was very negative about my mara debut at the weekend and I ended up crying in the bath. Have come to the conclusion that he obviously wishes it was him but he didn't put in the time or effort!
<sitting in a yoga pose chanting>
I am sending out happy positive thoughts to all PHAB runners please feel free to chant with me.
Brother-in-law is obviously jealous of your dedication, hard work and 100 % commitment, not to mention that wonderful medal when YOU cross the finish line.
Welcome Mr Bojangles
The power of visualization works wonders too, just "see" yourself running through all the fantastic landmarks and see urself cross the finish line, it is magic and it will happen for real on the 23rd!!!!!
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
I can do it
Hhhhhuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!
Need de stressing (school hoildays)
Bugbabe - your bro-in-law can always buy himself a medal on eBay the next day - believe me - they go on sale !!!
Just had physio - swelling receeding for first time. Positive vibes overflowing. Go go gadget legs. Please go!

As for selling my medal well it will be superglued on my neck for the next year believe me!
Diane opposite thing for me regarding school holidays as I work in a school. But as you can probably tell I'm rather chilled out right now. Although I do have 5 kids (only 3 at home) it's still less stress right now.
Wear your medal with pride.
I'm with you on the medal,i'm going to have mine framed ,and the finishers t-shirt ,i'm going to wear it, till it falls of my back!!
Well with a t shirt and a medal at the end,i'll be over that line faster than a robbers dog(well i hope so)
I shall speak to anyone in a Phab vest.
Have to say that after my long run on Friday I tried a 5 miler on Monday as was totally knackered, did 8 last night plus 30 mins on cross trainer and 15 rowing and felt great!
Keep up with the icing EL C we wanna see you on the big day!
Good luck with Reading if your running.
After Reading i am getting the big roll of cotton-wool out and wrapping myself in it till the big day. It seems that doors and kids toys keep on jumping out at me!
Its the outside of the back of my knees. Not sure what it it. Anyone any ideas please???
