The thread killer - Page 2

What to say?
Mmm?

My view is that a thread question tends, generally, to get answered fairly early on and only then does it find a tangent and fly off elsewhere....

...so back to nails then ANS!

Is that the time?

Off to the track for some Off Topic Sprints

Teehee... it's all well and fine for those people who have a few minutes each day to check on... but what about the rest of us who have some days full of almost nothing? There are days (kinda like today...) where Facebook just won't cut it... so I apologise for transferring all my random poo over to here. But you know you all love it anyways.

Anyways, there's only SO much I can say about running on a daily basis? When I call my friend vicky we talk about running for like an hour, but that's like once every couple of weeks... do you guys want me to post every day I run? Cuz surely that'd get boring for you lot, no? It's all much the same... eg, I woke up at 6am this morning, another night of 5 hours sleep... went for a run - it was really sunny but the air was a bit chilly so it was awesome, I was a bit stiff for the first mile, but it was an easy run anyways, the wild garlic growing next to the river thingy made me want food... erm... OH the hills that I used to think were big seemed really puny and I powered up them fairly easily...

Agreed ANS...only so much you can say about ones running...I could bore forumites to death..well I'm sure I do anyway...by going on and on about this training run and that training run...

Trust you impressed with use of shift key!!

This is always unintentional.

For example:

yesterday, the bum warming thread was going so well and then I came along.

There are plenty more examples of my talents.

Are there any posts that you have made which you'd like to withdraw so that the thread may be brought back to life?

Is anyone going to reply to this?:eek:

Are my social skills really that poor?:eek:

I have probably posted lots of things I shouldn't

but then who hasn't, fear not HF I don't think you're alone

Most guilty?

Moi perhaps!

I'd agree with that Steve, and yes I am mightily impressed! You should get a certificate or something.

Gutted that I had to print out my own finishers' certificate from the Sheffield half... what's up with that?!

I should shouldn't I !

Poor or what...I'd claim a race entry refund!

Yeah, the only thing I got for my £21 or whatever it was was a lousy bib and a finishers' medal... and an alpen bar that costs what, 40p? I didn't even get a pint of water!!! I suppose they did send me about a square foot of rain forest-worth of paper in leaflets and other bunf that I didn't really read. Tis a good thing I recycle. And the Alpen bar was FAAAAR too sweet and I was dying of thirst... I didn't get a foil blanket thing either, not that i needed it... Loads of other races cost the same and you get a tee and all that jazz... it's crap - I suppose all the money went into the prize fund or something. I'm not really bothered though... I mean I do think for the money they coulda done a bit better. I mean the marshall people were no use, near the end I asked one of them how much further, she said 3 miles... about 15 minutes later I came across the 10 mile marker (the only one I saw)... she lied! LOL didn't make a difference though lol... anyways.. I'll shut up now.

So it was good overall experience then!
