Getting there.
I'm working at home today so I'll pop in now and again to see what you're upto.
My mother got took into hospital yesterday and is having 3 ops today so i dont think my training is goining to improve over the short term
I can really feel a difference. Hopefully the weight will start to come off again soon. I'm going to increase my mileage again.
It was funny talking about ages and children last night, my life is so different to my parents.
I rembmer him working 12hr shifts form 6to6 then coming home getting changed and going to weight on till 11 at night
I also remeber having an outside loo for the 1st 10 yrs of my life
Yep - we definatly have it easyer
I agree with you will. We do have it easy. I am very grateful for that and assume that it won't be so easy for ever but should try to appriciate it (funny though as I type this I could list a million things to moan about!)
Anyway I'm off to look at new trainers this lunchtime in an attempt to sort out my knees.
Our lives are definitely easier than those of previous generations - along with a list of "things I have that my grandparents didn't", I could easily make a list of "things my grandparents had that I don't" - like coal scuttles, washing boards, tin baths, girdles, fish cutlery, Advocaat...
Morning all
WW hope your mum recovers quickly.
I remember now why I dont run in the morning!!...because it HURTS.
Well I managed the run to and from the gym and an hour there (although it turned out to be only 3 miles each way). But I do not think I will be doing that again in a hurry, it has just convinced me that my legs wake up a lot later than the rest of me, so unless someone can invent an alarm clock that wakes my legs up at 04.30 but lets the rest of me sleep till just after 6 then forgett it.
No what are the chances of that?
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tri's sometimes start as early as 6am
Best wishes to your mum WW
I even saw a vegan substitute for powdered egg in Holland and Barratt. Kevin wants me to buy some. I've told her she'll just have to put up with barely-risen cakes because I'm not buying silly products at silly prices from food-faddist shops.
Impressive stats though, JJ.
am 'working' today (was my resolution yesterday), have been good til 11.45... did a reporty thing on heroin... notice no-one's interested in forum addiction, my 'habit' is getting hard to kick!
But then I'd miss the FLM craic, and the Moonwalk banter, and I'd lose contact with my Trailwalker team...maybe next year. Or the year after. Dammit, I am NOT addicted!
WW, hope your mum's OK.
Time for a rant.
I was on www.expedia.co.uk last night trying to book my trip to Rome for the marathon. Found a flight and hotel combination I wanted, the site said it would be £340. Went right through the booking process, entered card details etc, then at the last screen got the message 'The price has changed, do you still wish to book'
The new cost? £650. Exactly how can the d*mned price just double?? How cr&p, annoying and infuriating is that??
Needless to say I didn't book it, so will be visiting the travel agents this weekend. And will probably end up hitching, sleeping in a church (I'll cliam sanctuary) and using the Trevi fountain for my ablutions.
Rant over, thank you all for listening.
