Thanks Jakes but don't be despondant. Don't forget you said you felt terrible yet you still got a pb. NRK too! I've been on form recently but next time I could be the one struggling,that's what it's all about. It WAS a memorable day for very many reasons.
btw if you think everyone at the finish should chase runners down the road singing the theme tune of Chariots of Fire as a way of engouraging them I'm afraid you are destined to be forever disappointed...unless someone clones a load of Jakesys
Fat Face's Mother to Fat Face .... "Yuk you put that in your mouth ?"

Happy the photo's came out OK, sorry I missed some of you ( NRK & Barbara especially), but 'cos we were close to the start the runners hadn't spread out much, and you were next to us before we had spotted you....
Pink Minnie, if you can run like that with the amount of training you've done there will be many more times you will overtake me! Well done, great run!
Well well well - everyone is v. bright and breezy!!
Come on - how are all the aches and pains?
After having no probs in the race my knee feels like crap today so lots of stretches and lying around on the office floor doing stupid exercises for me this week....
Legs tightened up nicely overnight and lower back painful - must get the boob reduction sorted........... [yeah right - fat chance!!!!]
Bra chafing still v sore and running out of cream!!! At least the loose skin has all come off now - semi boob reduction you could say!!!
Well done all - no DNFs for the URWFRC at this race!!!
Morning all - beginning to come down now and the awful realisation that I might have to keep that kind of time up has hit me!!! Aaargh - sure it wasn't me must've been taken over by running aliens for the morning!! Did a 30 min run last night to recover then had a massage. The guy who did that seemed to think it'e be a good idea to stick his elbows into the pressure points on my thighs!! Yow!! 3 times on each thigh!! Hurt far more than running ever does!!! Surprised he didn't hace to peel me off the ceiling. Thanks for the photos Cath and DtS and the encouragement from everyone - makes such a difference!! Might even be lookling forward to Lpool now,. instead of the usual curious mix of fear and anticipation...!!
Hiya PM. If you get the training done in the next 6 weeks you'll get under 2 hours at Liverpool. You'll be leaving me and Viking for dead at this rate.
30 minute run the day after a half. Good heavens, what is the world coming to!!
Club sess for me tonight. If they do a track sess, I ain't. I'm building up my stamina again, so it's steady running for me from now on.
Just put it down to the strange lens on my camera Loon !!!! ( I see Rich "cleaned" up my caption for what you were doing to Will with the safety pins !!!)
Dave, you know the picture of me. Is it possible that you've distorted it slightly and made it wider but less high so that I look less tall but slightly erm rotund.
I'm on page 23. 0699 and he's neck and neck with a man in blue and onto 0700 Flatters is striding out for a great finish looking fresh and strong! Well I can dream.

Thanks again to everybody for making Sunday a memorable day, who said running is a lonely sport?

FF - I am also a Fat Disgrace.
Look at the damn state of me.
Mmmm no wonder I'm crap at this running lark.
I'm off to eat rice cakes........ and nothing else!
Mmmmm What did the original say you DOM?
Go on spill.....
Original caption now in use

I'm having a fat day. I'm having a fat day every day in fact.

Checked mine out - would probably have bought one if it hadn't been for the Spectrum Strider outkicking me (shots "0087" and "0088" here)
No, just a thought.
