Hi everyone. Please wing positive thoughts my way today. Got my induction (officially becoming the Rector) service tonight at 8. Place heaving with Bishops, Mayors and other assorted dignitaries. Oh help!
It's only skinny celebrities and the dodgy gurus who make a lot of money by pandering to them who are anti-bread, Lamb. Bread has been the staple diet of honest British workers for centuries, and our bread-eating-class ancestors didn't get fat (that was the preserve of the kidneys-for-breakfast folk in the big houses) or twitter about being "allergic" to it. The ate over a pound of the stuff each a day (with precious little else) and, er, dropped dead somewhere between 30 and 40 years of age. Maybe it wasn't so good for them after all :-(
Bread is definitely still way up the list of Good Things for most runners.
One ficelle...probably less than 400 calories, working on there being 95 in a slice of thick-cut Allinson wholemeal. Yes, I've looked at the label - how sad is that? And at its best just eaten fresh out of the packet.

Brrrr - it's freezing in here.
LOts of healthy food though - fruit and veg, no pork pies or anything.
Short run down the gym to try the trainers out, plus some weights and a sauna.
Enjoy your training everyone, might head out for a few miles later.
Ran for an hour before work, prob about 6.5 miles. Now got an overwhelming desire for porridge, might have to sneak a ten AM breakfast break.
Hope everyone has a good day.
Morning SB
I am so late today - but I had over 8 hours sleep, so it was worth it.
I'll probably go out later - three miles at 10K pace or 4 miles at half-marathon pace. Is that sufficiently technical to put on Training?
Best wishes Sassie, I'm sure it will be lovely.
ate almost an entire french stick last night, what's the damage cals-wise?! was one of those ficelle things, like a skinny french stick.
Trailwalker seems to have taken a sinister turn. Aren't we going to run it, then? I was hoping to be in a hotel at the other end by bedtime.
Lamb, the French stick isn't a problem. As long as you didn't have 500g of cheese with it...
Better do some work.
am i looking at about 400 cals for the bread?
no training for me until March.
lamb: ficelle must have lots of brie and saucisse de sanglier, unsalted butter and a glass of vin de pays rouge, oh and b****r the calories
but for petit dejeuner?
a chirac moment?
enjoy
>>sits back and awaits flames<<
Any way really good hour in the gym this morning, I gave those weights what for!
Back at work and expecting another long one!

How long does it usually take for a new piccy to upload?
