Well done everyone. I think the 5 mile results are going to be posted. I'll phone the person who sorted them to find out. If they are not I'll find out how else I can pass them on.

now added - same page as 20 mile results. There are a couple of gaps - maybe the organiser can work these out in due course and then I'll update the page.

Matt,
I keep trying. I have finally got over my ankle injury which means i have been able to start doing the distance training ready for london. Going for the sub 3h.
I did forest of dean half on sunday aswell which managed i 1:30 which ain't bad considering.

What have you been eating? 2 wins in 8 days.

Shaw Pye

correction, 2 wins in a fortnight.

Matt the Brum

1:30 for an offroad half on Sunday! My legs still haven't recovered. Don't get injured this close to FLM.
Haven't been doing too much different to last year apart from eating and drinking a bit less, and increased my swimming.

matt,
I have just started swimming coz i want to tarin for a triathlon, maybe i will get as quick as you (i wish).

I was ok after the weekend, took it easy last week with 3 sessions (16mile) and a hour of swimming. just done 14 today.

Are you doing London?

Matt the Brum

SP-Yep, doing FLM. Staying next to the Excel centre, not sure what the hotel is called.
Which tri? Are you going to join a tri club?

Shaw Pye

MATT- I'm doing FLM aswell staying next to the mall due to air miles messing up our bookings. How many long runs have you done? I'm worried i haven't done enough.

I did do 3 marathons last year though.

I won't join a tri club coz i only want to do a few. I have done two duathlons and going to do hereford next month.

Matt the Brum

SP- If you had a good run at Rhayader (which you did) I wouldn't worry too much about FLM. Just do a long one this weekend and then start easing off. I've got a few more long ones planned but its in prep for something at the end of May.
Tri's are good fun, just a bit bike biased.

Shaw Pye

is that the banbury 40miler or something like that?

I'm doig peopleton this weekend which i was going to do twice = 12mile, but i may do the race then go home and do 10mile instead. or would missing the race and doing 20mile training be better option?

Shaw

Matt the Brum

SP-Was tempted by the Pepleton race, also Wrekin Fell race, but will probably go and do the White Horse half mara.
Doing a LDWA event on Saturday which will be 27miles (if I don't get lost).
I'd suggest doing a steady 3 hours/20 miles on Saturday and go and race Pepleton on Sunday.
End of May is the Grand Union Canal race.

Shaw Pye

Seems like a plan to me. I will put in my dairy to do that. After all you've been doing it longer than me.

Has anybody recieved a photo yet?

Think UM has. just trying to work out if they are being sent out in order of finishing time or whether there just wasn't one of me (due to running past to fast for the naked eye to catch ;-))!?!??!

Shaw Pye

I got one sent to me but it was the wrong one, sent it back today. The organisers had me down on the the entry list wrong.

[Deleted User]

SP - that's funny cos the bloke I was runningwith today gotthe wrong one too and he's had to send it back. I haven't recieved one at all!?!? Hopefully I'll recieve one of some gorgeous lady who looks like a good runner. I shall keep it and pretend it's me :-)

RC - You might get one of our mistaken team mate - you know 'you in my team':)

[Deleted User]

:-) Yes UM, that would do nicely :-)

Matt the Brum

Had one a while ago. Cath had hers a couple of days later. Everyone at our club who ran and I've spoken to has had a photo.
Good picture at about 15 miles with a reservoir in the background.
