Went for a slip and slide around the Eskdale route this morning, the course is atrocious with some of the paths now fast flowing streams, you will probably need bog trotters next week.Quote:

Too true, 14m/2933ft not the 30m i'd planned but some good hard climbing, ran all the ups apart from a couple of steep/slippery sods in the woods, spent more time sliding back down. Still got BOYflu and coughing like a seal but feel a dam sight better than i did this morning, not a totally wasted day;)Quote:

Would The Master or Amex have a vest ('L') available?

Save your sprint until after Eskdale(as I am not there) you may need it for the next one as I was doing speed work tonight in sleet and wind ,twas very dark also, dedication of the mind me thinks :pQuote:

Hi Mr C how was your trip good to see you back xx
things have changed a bit around here i am almost a master
(bater):eek::D
Hi guys
Whats the fit like on the black ponies vest? Just about to drag out the cheque book, (it's hidden in a pile of moth balls)
Just wondering about sizing?
HiQuote:

The medium fits my 38" chest fine :)
How did the Crosscountry (spits at floor :p) go Ambrosia?
Eskdale will be apearing in the next edition of Extream swimming
No sprint finishes today as I was forced to hobble over the line with calf problems: must get it to the vets :rolleyes:
But as Arnie said “I’ll be back”
Ta guys
Vests I've been using are Nike fit, medium UK 38-40
Thought I'd ask tho as I haven't got a normal club vest.... reason being they have no XL! Don't know where they sourced them, but their sizing must be way off.
Looks like I'll be asking the Master for a Medium.
Trog, you may have been swimming around your run , I was just slipping and sliding in a mud bath, good fun though, although my rival whom I had previously scalped got me by 20secs this time, all adds to the interest.Quote:

Hope you get the calf to the vet soon, and you are able to turn out on the terrible 3 lapper of G,boro woods race.
Fellow Ponies ask DJ to send his snap in of Eskdale race today, at Hob Hole ford. Why he went over the footbridge I'll never know????
Medium should be fine,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, but go for the illuminous green, it puts the other runners off their stride.:eek:Quote:

I expect to be at the G’boro Woods race
I did think of using the van:DQuote:

I like your thinking No Vice, i will be looking at new 2010 designs in Jan, but will do only fixed orders as i still have 4 left from last year:Quote:

they will be in the back of the motor at XOTF and will more than likely go then so if you want one shout
Whoops.....i think the last black medium may have gone to Mr Trog last week Mr No vice:pQuote:

P.S. got the cheque but will wont pay it in till you get a vest (as it happens i still havent cashed Derby Tup's from ages ago either so fret not!)
Green sounds fine, if blacks unavailable. I was thinking of getting a green from Amex next.
is that an order then??:DQuote:
