  • wow I can see why they call you fast legs ! sub 40 with little training ! i can only dream, only just got under sub 45 ! As you say I've got plenty of time, bit frustrated, this is by far the longest I've been injured in over 12 years of running so suffering withdrawal symptons at the moment. The most annoying thing is that when I'm actually running it doesn't actually hurt that much, just my left calf gets stiff...it's later that it hurts. Especually first thing in the morning,  have to keep standing up as I'm typing this to relieve the ache in my left buttock ...doh !
  • Thanks beders. I was one of the slow ones in the club, tried to hang on to the big boys but the wheels came off at 7k. Your injury sounds very similar to mine, except for the calf. I get a pain in the butt when sitting down, and my leg can some times go numb on a long run. The problem that I have is the tendon that apparently connects the hamstring to my pelvis. I thought it was piriformis at first but after seeing my physio he found out it was the tendon. I can still run with it as long as I cut my mileage down a bit and keep having treatment and do the stretching. Good luck with yours, hope you get it sorted out soon.

    I've sadly decided to pull out of the marathon so does slow duck want to contact me to swap numbers etc as I'm not sure how it works.

  • Slow DuckSlow Duck ✭✭✭
    Cinders,

    Sorry to hear that you've had to pull out of the marathon. Thank you for offering to swap the number. I've sent you an e-mail to get the ball rolling.

    Slow Duck
  • CindersCinders ✭✭✭
    Its for the best for me right now.  Have replied to your mail Slow Duck.
  • Hi All.

    It's some-one's lucky day!!!

    I have a number on offer, who ever is next on the list drop me a line and we getting sort 'summit outimage

    Sue

  • Hi cinder, slow duck and sue c , if you need to refresh the details of what you need to do, it's all on page 4 of this thread. If possible would you mind sending the details via myself ? my e-mail address is also on that page, it's just that the Abingdon organisers didn't actually want to get too involved in the number swapping as it caused them so  much trouble last time therefore the plan was that the number swapping would be done via myself (or runner bean if I got too swamped) so they would get get the one point of contact rather than having to spend lots of time dealing with loads of people. You do of course arrange any money payments between yourselves once I have confirmed the number has been swapped

     if that's ok could Cinder and slow duck send me their required details and then also could sue c and c-cat (next on list) also send me theirs and I will get the ball rolling for both number swaps. I just don't want Tracey at race HQ suddenly getting lots of different peoples e-mails and queries etc and then deciding she doesn't want the hassle and everyone missing out on a race place.

    trust that's ok with everyone,  . Any queries please give me a ring on 07957 431189

    cheers

  • CindersCinders ✭✭✭

    Ok beders, am away at mo so just a quick post but will post details properly when I get back home on Sunday.

  • AeschylusAeschylus ✭✭✭
    Sorry to hear of injury probs, Beders and Fast Legs.  Hope you're both improving.

    Sorry too about people dropping out of Abingdon, but great that two more peeps now have places!
    (Give me a (virtual) shout if you need a hand Beders!)

  • hello hello. I've got a place for this and sadly can't do it now.... What's the process to swap my number to someone else? Mitten - looks like you're next. Lucky you!

  • Hi Mrs GA, sorry to hear you can't run, thanks for offering your number. If you look on page 4 of this thread it shows what you need to do, basically e-mail me your full name, address, dob and  running club which i forward onto race HQ,  mitten has to do the same  and i forward that onto HQ as well then they confirm the number has been swapped.  Any payments need to be sorted between you and mitten, if you want to wait until you've received your payment before I forward on your details that's fine, just let me know. if you want to also try and contact mitten that's fine, the sooner he/she knows the sooner we can get the number swapped.

    any probs /queries give me a ring

    cheers
