Rotterdam 2006

Maddy.

well not quite - still just under but fetch convieniently rounds things up and down - just gmaped an almost spot on 4 mile route

Maddy.

Todays will also not deliberately avoid a bit of climbing though I have routed it so its gentler

paul a

Do I detect a wee breeze getting up outside?

paul a

Is Maddy back from her 4 miler yet?

Maddy.

Maddy never goes out before 7 and its howling - could be interesting

paul a

Thought you might have been blown away.

Maddy.

Nah I expect I am a wee bit heavy for that

paul a

I'm glad you said that not me.

Maddy.

LOL - I am not looking forward to it but will at least try - even if I cut the route down for today

paul a

Cut it down from 4 miles - sounds like a challenge. Anything less and it isn't worth getting your Dunlop Green Flash muddy.

Maddy.

ohhhh - we will see - part of the route takes me high but fortunately not exposed - at least in this weather thee will be less chavs out to take the pee

paul a

Just bang their heeds together, find that always works with the neds.

Maddy.

ah - well I bet I don't come acorss many people at all - well as I start i will have to get changed and then think some more

paul a

Enjoy yourself, report back in when you get back so we know you are safe.

Maddy.

and alive?

paul a

Preferably, who else would I talk to on a dark and stormy night?

Evening.

You can talk to me Paul. I'm just back in from 2 days teaching in Glossop and I am not planning to move far from my sofa!

I managed to get a little 3 miler in early before I set off on Friday, just to keep the mileage ticking over. I was considering another run this evening but I am so tired just now, and there are definitely gales here so I might give it a miss. 

Maddy.

Hello phys

well now - at first the rain was in my face and i couldn't see so I decided to cut it short then the rain went so I decided to add abit on to the shoort route - then I rejoined the original one and its wasn't too bad so I added another bit on then another tiny bit so in the end dispite originally taking a short cut it was 3.9 miles I ended up walking more than I wanted but i only ate and hour before and felt heavy so I have relearnt that lesson

Maddy.

It may change tomorrow but right now I am on page 139

Well done Maddy. I'm impressed at you running in this weather, and this late!

paul a

Evening phys

paul a

Clinging onto the very last rung of page 2 for me.

Morning all

7 ish miler recovery run planned this morning.

Maddy.

Morning the wind appears to have gone now and it looks likeit is brightening up

phys1

Morning.10 hours sleep but I still feel tired. 

Its bright here but still very windy. Mountain biking this afternoon.... I think the plan was to another Moor, but hopefully sense will prevail and we'll stay in the woods! 

Page 97 yesterday but I'll be dropping some places with not running for 2 days but I've a longer one planned for Monday. 

Maddy.

I am in caffeince widthdrawal - very very tired despite having some sleep last night

paul a

7 miler done, nice and easy with mrs a.

Is the insomnia back Maddy?

Maddy.

The insomnia never went away - a good nights sleep is relative to what you are used to

paul a

Have you tried single malt?

Maddy.

I am on the wagon and alcohol doesn't help anyway
