I managed a pleasant 6.7 miler & am definitely going to do Keswick on Sunday, just hope it's a bit cooler.
Glad to see we are all getting back to normal.
Well done tweety, great news - i need to speak to Kirsty and see what it means because i aint finshed - Has anyone got there paying in slips yet?
Im back at work today - shattered and getting tired really quickly all the time but then i hammered myself and will take a while
I had two nice meals and a bbq at the weekend and didnt drink a drop - with everything i put kidneys through been told not to but its sooooooooooooooooooo tempting!!!!
No running for me for a while - got to recover - going back to tkd next week to get kicked round the hall!!! be good fun
take it easy rich; it will take you a while to recover from what you've been through. was going to send you a card with lots of beer on the front but didn't think it was fair. like the new pic!
baz; know what you mean. there was a spring festival/farmers market in romford yesterday and whilst i was sitting there sampling some lovely local bacon in a roll (again, apologies to any veggies present) i realised that at that time last week, i was sweating my backside off somewhere around london.
i think i am going to go veggie for a few days. i have eaten so much meat in the past few days i think i'm sick of the sight of it.

Off for another high fat meal tonight - missus birthday and need to pamper her as ive ignored her for three months while training!!
I would come and cheer you on, we could get our own RICH Supports Club together - glad to see you back.
Are you planning some world travel then??
Are you planning some world travel then??
so where are you going then rich? anywhere exotic?
Ran for the train last night and my hips screamed agony - physio visit called for i belive!
Thanks for the get well card tweety - arrived yesterday after the hospital forwarded it on
Will definatley volunteer in the future
your trip sounds very exotic. sadly, trips like that are off the cards with mini tweety. she gets tonsillitis when we go to cornwall, so god only knows what she's get if we went to south east asia. although i have always hankered after going to canada and NZ. the lakes in canada look so gorgeous.
how was your lady's bday the other day? perhaps you could persuade her to do the hydroactive challenge and you could come and cheer her on (along with me and lameduck - are you going this year LD?)
Very nice birthday thanks - treated her to a slap up curry (note to self - stop eating junk!)
Cant wait for the trip - cant come soon enough!!
I went for my first post-marathon run last night, just 4 miles and it felt really quite tough - not sure that I am fully recovered really, and it was pretty warm. Nice to get out and stretch the legs though - and glad that there are currently no programmes to adhere too!
Received my Evening Standard supplement this morning - so thanks for that Tweety, much appreciated - a great momento!
I ran for the first time on Monday - a tentative 4 miles, and everything was complaining, mostly my ankles, how bizarre. (Wore my finishers T-shirt - big mistake, its soooo big I nearly tripped over the bottom of it ..)
In keeping with Tweetys schedule, here is mine for the near future, if anyone fancies any of these runs in Kent, give me a shout (I will even through in some B&B if required ..!!)
20/5 Darent Valley 10K (rural)
27/5 Canterbury Half
2/6 Harvel 5 (rural - lots of drinking by the Harvel Hash Harriers ....)
15/7 Cliffe Woods 10K
22/7 Dartford Half
12/8 Bluewater 10K (shopping and eating after, perfect!)
2/9 Kent coastal half (or full hhmmnnn?)
9/9 Shorne Wood 5 (2 minute jog from my front door)
It will be nice to get back out there again - take care all.
Going to see my physio soon and get sorted!!
Finishers t shirt - pah!!!! Not bitter!!! He he
anyone want a big bag of jelly babies, 4 SIS go blackcurrant gels and 1 hi5 raspberry rush gel? can't stand to look at them at the moment. shudder.
I had a Reading half marathon t-shirt which I HATED the neck on, although the fabric was lovely so I didn't want to bin it.
Anyway, I used my Macmillan vest as a template, chopped the t-shirt about, sewed round the arm & neck holes (not amazingly, but it will do) and - bob's your uncle, I now have something I might actually wear (and infact have on several occasions already) rather than something taking up space but unlikely to get binned because I kind of liked it!
