Make it a good one Lyn.

Good Luck.

Thanks Dave,
Hope it's like today, bright and sunny with no wind (not that sort). Have had to forego the curry tonight in favour of pasta!

That will help with any wind problem.

Ahh....Thanks Karen,

I always like reading all the info on this forum 'serious running stuff' or the more light hearted banter, keeps me going. Have just started getting back into things after nearly two months off. I have entered the Romsey five mile race tomorrow. Not expecting a good time, but just hope for 'a good run'.

Keep on running!!!

Hope all went well, How did you get on?

Thanks for asking, yes fine, I was a little nervous where I haven't run much lately, but got round in just over 46 minutes.....wish that was a 10k time and not five miles, but I was happy with that. I didn't have time to warm up properly as I was late and had to go and put my entry in, hence I got stitch between 2 and 3 miles. But, all good experience, the more races I do the less nervous I get at the next one.

That is a good time, don't be disappointed at all considering the time you have had to take off...

Thanks Twinks, Good luck with your race next month.

Bagpuss,

I know you live not too far from here. Are you planning on doing the Goring 10K (25th Feb)?

Hi Karen,

Well I wasn't.....but I could! Not doing much running showed yesterday, I was really stiff from the run on Sunday, mind you not having time to warm up properly didn't help.

The next couple of weeks are really busy for me, so my running will be limited, but I should be able to manage a 10k, maybe not worrying about the time though.

Are you thinking of doing it? I'll do it if you are !!!

I see from the website that it is fairly popular so entries need to be in asap. Is it 'undulating'? or hilly?

It would be nice to meet up, I expect you are fitter than me though!


Speak to you soon,

Lyn.

Karen/Bagpuss,

Will it be a case of the dog chasing the cat if you both do the Goring 10k?!

I think I will need chasing to keep me going. I have just read the info on the race and it descibes it as 'challenging'. This could mean anything!

Are you looking for volunteers?!

The more the merrier! But, I really don't think you could manage to stay behind us for 6 miles!

I don't know about that....that's what keeps me going in races!

I followed some very interesting bottoms on Sunday, both male and female. Mind you, I won't describe it, but one, I just had to overtake!
