Please all sign the petition for the liverpool 2008 marathon.
I will have a very big party and you are all invited ....
Liverpool 08 Mara petition
Throws down a very large stack of Jaffa cakes, Hob Nobs and Belgian chocolates as bait.
(Then scarpers to hide behind his enormous in tray.)
I 've run at total of 15 miles in the last 4 weeks but I am running a half marathon on Sunday! Madness!
I'm also going to Twickenhamon Saturday and have had a T Shirt made - " I was there for Andy Robinsons's last match"
NRG2...I would have run a mile....how creepy! Best put him out of your head...at least you had the sense to clear off. Many others wouldn't have...yeuchhhh!
MrH...I'll sign your petition...bribery goes a LONG way!
Eye has settled down today, just a mild pinky colour which disappears with make up.
I forgot how rough it can be in the pool with up to 5/6 in a lane!
Put my belongings down - keys etc......Started running machine 1 ..... speed was in KmH
Stopped and went on another machine - this one in MpH - Success!
Realised that I had left my phone on machine 1 - stepped off to retrieve phone.
Saw that I'd got an SMS message on my phone. Retreived message and returned to machine No2.
Stepped back onto machine 2 but forgot that I'd left it on at 7 Mph. I was ejected from the machine at 7mph and was extremely lucky not to break anything.
I have some huge bruises and it looks like someone has been at me with an iron bar!
It went a bit like this!
Petition signed!
Hungry now, off to feed!
Thanks all for signing the petition. Please pass the info on - if we can get thousands not hundreds of signatures then the Council will have to do something.
Its gone very quiet in here - Shhhh I don't mean to wake anyone.
Glad I could be of help ref. the Liverpool (or will it be Mersey) Marathon.
Hope you are O.K. I loved the video. Having run a lot on a treadmill I can really appreciate that.
Been working all day (I know, I know...most of you all spend every day working but I don't!!)...my new class is good fun, 10 guys and 2 girls...OMG!!
The weather looks real bad for tomorrow so I'm not going to venture out on my first bike ride in a gale force wind so the plan is a 5 mile run and a swim.
I can't believe Eaton Road are out and that Ray stays in...he's so bad!
Have a good weekend all!!
I'm not sure just how much I will be able to keep up with all these threads...
...my grand plan for 2007 is to do the Six Nations: Rome, Paris, London, Edinburgh, Cardiff (assuming it runs in 2007!) and Dublin. - Lot of threads to keep up with!!
Good luck everyone:))
Oh well.
I went to my first ever rugby match yesterday and it was lots of fun. I think i grasp the main objectives of the game though I still cant figure out why they spend s much time just standing around.
I don't go to ball games...I have a "ball magnet" in my head and I tend to end up with some sort of concussion...picture Old Trafford...60oddK of people and I get smacked in the side of the head with a football...true!!
lots of people suggested I make more and sell them!
Grew up in Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Sevens was particularly popular with the girls at my school......swooon....!
I have order my christmas present and i-magic from www.tacx.com , its a turbo trainer that plugs in to your pc. Not that techie for me then a USB Tubro Trainer.
You'll love the tacx AATTB...we have a computrainer and, altough no substitute for the real thing, is pretty darn good!
MrGFB used to be physio for the Ulster rugby squad (more the B team but he did work with the A team too) and got to meet the Sprinboks and so on...it was no hardship to go to those matches!!
(Although I did get hit on the head with a rugby ball also at one match!!...told you...ball magnet!!)
Mr H - can't believe you even bothered to go to Twickenham. Why doesn't he just go?!!
DTB - have you seen the All-Blacks? having said that I think our own boys in green are pretty cool!
Anyone any bright ideas how to fix a mobile that's been dropped and the screen has gone all bright/blurry/illegible? it's the 2nd mobile in 6 months that I've dropped. So annoying. Everything else seems to be fine except I just can't read texts, numbers etc - in other words it's useless apart from incoming calls!
spin class this morning - they work you hard eh?
planning a run this sunday - first since the marathon, probably 6 miles. Foot still swollen, but not hurting so might give it a go and see how it goes. undecided about a 10k on the 17th.... will be first 10k in 14 months, so in theory I might PB even with dodgy limbs
Poor you DTB and NRG2, still being injured after the marathon.
I've got weight training tonight and then an early night I hope...we're doing the "freezer diet" this week!
I did an inventory of my freezer this morning after realising that I couldn't get one more item in there (and it is a pretty hefty freezer!!)
So list of contents is stuck to the front of the freezer...family pick what they want and it get defrosted for tea!
I'm not food shopping for at least a week!!
...I give up!
DTB, which marathon have you just done that has hurt your foot so??
As for running on swollen feet - not normally the best of ideas; you have inflammation for a reason. Then again, could be localised oedema post marathon (how long ago was it?). How's about non-weight bearing exercise like cycling to elevate your circulation and help clear the oedema?? - just a thought:)
Oh, just so as you know... Yes, I have run for a wee while and had my share of injuries, Yes I am a boffin - but no, I am not medically trained so feel free to ignore any and all advice!!
Oh, the thought of using public transport and actually working out where planes, trains, buses etc start and stop is making my tiny brain ache!!
I'm really enjoying the weight training (well it's actually "resistance training"...no that doesn't mean me and MrGFB are fighting!!) I can't believe how much my strength has come up in the space of just a couple of weeks...don't worry I'll not be goin for Ms Olympia just yet!!
Just a query...is anyone here from Newcastle man?
HELLO...echo...echo...echo!!!
yup, must just be the echo!!
...and I am off home now!!
- must get some running in sometime!! :0
