Not bad for a bunch of road and track runners!!
Well done! But if the rest was like leg 5, you could run it in Road shoes, just like trail running up on the top, although the biting wind was more than you would get at road level.Quote:

Had to get changed stood in the road at the start of leg 2 so for anyone who is still disturbed from seeing a young lad topless who looks like he's just escaped from auschwitz i apologise.
Well done to emi on keeping going after that fall, your final sprint into the finish was ace! - And with a minor hangover:rolleyes:
Well done to my partner to Karen Nash for keeping going and finishing. We had a decent first mile by over-taking a handful of pair straight away but Karen began to struggle with her breathing and her legs weren’t working and i was beginning to think we where going to pull out.
But after we got halfway we managed to get some good momentum and began to pick off all the pairs who's overtaken us earlier in the leg. We had a good finish down the big winding hill, i tried to sprint the finish but it felt like someone was playing pinball in my legs with cramp.
Saw the ponies and stayed to watch them come in...was good to chat to George about his super powerful car, drug dealing day jobs, the pony flag, his rowing machine and evercise bike....we talked about alot really.
Message for The Master and Amex - I still don’t know what to believe!
Met Disco Stan, NB, Roger Rabbit, Mr and Mrs C and Wheezing Donkey out in the middle of Leg 2 walking in the opposite way who stuck his hand out as I ran past “Im wheezing Donkey”
Thank god for that - I thought merry had beaten me because Emi said he'd finished Leg 2 before I did......but he finished in 1:56.....I finished in 1:54.;):D
I now predict a challange forthcoming from Merry;)Quote:

I forgot to mention.
I could feel a blister suddenly appear during my run only a few miles in - Its the same toe every time and its because of my Asics i used to wear - Anyway, when i got home and was about to get into the shower, i looked at the blister and it was a massive juicey blood-blister!
I decided to use some scissors and cut it - bad idea....the blood squirted all over my desk.:rolleyes:
Need to remember to tape it up in future!
Now if this works it will be a miracle! Hopefully some picks from Leg 5

I embarrased myself before all you lot arrived, there was a group of lads playing on the football pitch and one of them cleared the ball over the fence. I ran over to it, flicked it up and tried to boot it back over to them - haven’t kicked a football in a while and ended up screaming it straight into the fence:o.......had a second try and booted it miles over the fence and set a lad up to score in the top corner.;)
"It must be love, love love!"
Emi and Mr Rabbit.

It's George working on his upper body strength by pulling me up that b****dy hill. I crawled up the next one. Not a pretty sight.
Bit late for me to post this reply in your defence Al but I will anyway.
Yesterday on leg 2 Al was slowed up badly by running with an old lady with a chest infection.
I am sure he would have run faster- in fact it is the slowest I have run that leg!
True, he needed me to tell him where to go but I reckon he could easily have done 1.45 and possibly faster
He needs to find a younger and fitter partner next year
Nonsence - My legs where dead straight away. I had nothing to give having not trained for ages and im not as fit as i was a couple of months ago.Quote:
