    3 ) Knock 30 mins of my Pendle time of 3:45
    4 ) Knock 30 mins off my Hope Moors and Tors time of 4:18
    5 ) Knock 15 mins off my Windgather 13 time of 2:15
    6 ) Run the Welsh 3000s

    7 ) Do all the above without the wife saying " You never want to spend any time with me anymore "

    I'd like to think Numbers 1-6 are tough but realistic.

    Number 7 I would say is 99.999 % impossible and 99.999 % unrealistic but you never know ?
    You're obviously new this marridge negoiating, what you should be saying is "You never come out with me or support me in my leisure time activities"

    There shouldn't be a huge difference in dates from one year to the next. Which bit of the Pyrenees are you going to?
    Ariege, also with a few days in Carcassone and Perpignan to watch Leeds Rhinos,my Rugby team, who are playing Catalans. Hopefully catch a mountain stage of the Tour de France as well.

    There is also a list of races here on Gary and Debbie Devine's Pyrenees Haven web site.

    Re: New Years resolutions

    Running wise....
    1: Fellsman
    2: Push a route from my doorstep at Slawit down to my Sisters at Great Hucklow
    3: Double Marsden
    4: Have a go at a sub 5 Tanky's route
    5: Have a shuffle round the HPM route

    Personally...
    1: Drop a dress size!
    2: be nice to children
    3: I would like there to be peace in the world
    4: Find a solution to global cooling

    Re: New Years resolutions

    I need to get some decent hills in, and also do some longer training runs.
    A bit late really, I've entered Rombalds Stride, I want a crack at the Hobble, and the Fellsman is unfinished business.
    Tomorrow, honest, I'm off out for a long-ish run...

    Ooops! I will certainly give this a spring time bash, a mere oversight. I am also planning something secret that was just a dream 18 months ago, but I will keep that close to my ample chest for now.:wink:
