Training took a nose dive today, 3m instead of 19m, too busy, so you'll catch me and overtake me;)

Test your soul, run, how far is up to you,
It's not about time or anyone else,
It's about you and your goals and dreams

aye we all have days like that do we not..tho not all facing the same ardous task ahead!....

merrylegs
heart and soul of gold
plans a BGR triumph
a sight to behold
i may not be your pacer
i'll probably not be at the moot hall
but i respect and admire
the way you give it your all
so dear merrylegs
fear not that today was only three
as pretty soon the mutiplication
of your dedication will see....
your ambition rewarded
and your soul set free.

:)

I Wanna Be Yours

I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
breathing in your dust
I wanna be your Ford Cortina
I will never rust
If you like your coffee hot
let me be your coffee pot
You call the shots
I wanna be yours

I wanna be your raincoat
for those frequent rainy days
I wanna be your dreamboat
when you want to sail away
Let me be your teddy bear
take me with you anywhere
I don’t care
I wanna be yours

I wanna be your electric meter
I will not run out
I wanna be the electric heater
you’ll get cold without
I wanna be your setting lotion
hold your hair with deep devotion
Deep as the deep Atlantic ocean
that’s how deep is my emotion
Deep deep deep deep de deep deep
I don't wanna be hers
I wanna be yours

I'm sick as a chip for not having thought of doing a fell race poem to the sound of Chicken Town - absolutely marvellous! (and by the way, you tube will have that amazing bit from The Sopranos where JCC incredibly crops up doing Chicken Town) - check it out poetry people!
Now... I thought you must have been there. but apparently not. It was a cracking day on the fells of Northumberland. A really good race and very christmassy if anyone fancies it next year.

HHH - as good as ever got posted here!

Cheers OW. I've been reading JCC all week and I guess something stuck. It was fun to write. I wasn't sure whether that bit from the Sopranos was real or not. A tad surreal.

I'll have to run next year now I pretend to know all about it. :D Sounds like a great race. I've never races in the North East before.

I love that Freckle. JCC has become one of my favourites. It is great to hear him perform. Thank goodness for you tube. I should really buy some of his CDs.

I like your Monday morning training regime!

I've never races in the North East before

....i think we would like to change that if poss HHH! :)
