I was hoping that the Istanbul marathon would be the same day as ABO but they have put it 3 weeks later next year. Still, you never know, hubby might want to run it with me.
Another good luck for By'Eck! How are you feeling?
And I'm feeling much better . Can breathe again and I have managed to stay awake today. The weather is really awful - cold sleety rain. I did manage a fun swim with my family and my brothers family. But I realised that I'd forgotten to put my costume in the bag. So I raided my Mum's cupboard to try and find a swim suit. I ended up with a long bikini top and a pair of bikini bottoms for 2 different sets. Lol It looked sooooo awful I couldn't even be embaressed about them. It was simply so bad that it was hilarious. They were also a size 18 and I'm a 10/12. Had to be a bit careful how I swam so they didn't fall off!
Anyway, my brother and family have arrived and so far we are all doing okay. If we manage to survive the next 24hrs I will consider it a huge sucess.
Loula - I've just tried a handstand and I think I've eaten too much stilton this week. You'd better put me on the bottom of the pyramid... but I'm raring to go and looking forward to cheering on our Byeck!
AF - that mileage is impressive! Wow!
And yes, I will start the new thread late tomorrow night after we get home - so look out for it on Sunday morning bright and early! We will all need to be cheering on the boss who's running the first race of the year.
phantom, AF, white t-shirts at the ready tomorrow please. gastank , i suggest you pump up about 9:30am in good time for full effect..and we need proof of that please.
chili, glad you are feeling so much better...and i cant wait to see our shinynoo thread page....you were very brave going in the 'too big' cozzie lol.....
......franny, Dean is my noo beau, he is very impressive..coming very close in the ranks to Daniel Craig.......
R.R I would kick up a fuss if you dont get sorted out.
Indeed. I'm quite confident though - they did a very good job with my troublesome shoulder. I injured it in rehearsals for a show about ten years ago and it hasn't really been the same since. Getting physio for it sooner didn't occur to me - I know: stupid - but at the same time, the doctor I saw back then didn't say anything about it either . Now that I've had physio on it though, it's much better, I haven't had any bad episodes with it since and it only took a few sessions, along with doing stretches at home. Hopefully the same will be true of my knee.
Byeck - wow you've been good. How did you manage that?
The girls are really enjoying having their cousins here but sleep is not happening! Watching my sister-in-law is rather amusing though. She's rather a large young lady and hasn't stopped eating since she arrived at lunchtime. I guess she's doing me a favour since it's all my Christmas cheese, chocolate, crisps, mince pies, blueberry muffins, she's eating.... just wondering what I'm going to feed my girls tomorrow.....
Swimming is a bit later this morning so I got a bit of a lie in. (Up at 8 instead of 6!) Kids are still asleep and hubby just made me a cup of tea. mmmmm! I'll run while they are swimming.
By'Eck - Enjoy your race! Hope the weather is kind. Gosh, I'd have loved some stilton (it's one of my favourites, you can buy it here but it is really expensive) - why didn't you eat any?
Chili- Hope you have some food left to feed your family!
RR - Hope you can get your knee sorted. It must be very frustrating for you.

Jude, I feel really nervous and unready. I haven't got any bananas, my shoosies still need cleaning, I had a long nap this afternoon
But, I have got a fab cheerleading team!
