Shock Absorber (and go for the version for doing the most extreme sports) is definately the best investment you can make in a sports bra :thumbup:

Aye that's the one they recommended I buy. I tried on a fair few, they were pretty patient with me.

I didn't know yomping was a Marines term - then again, as a kid I was with the 17/21 Lancers (don't exist no more) and as an adult instructor I was with the Welsh Guards, and training with them was frankly terrifying (they're infantry which don't have women in, so some of them had a few issues with women on their patch. This was a few years ago, but the mess had a line painted on the floor about a metre from the bar and women could not cross it to buy their own drinks. After spending the whole day keeping up, not being able to buy a drink, was pretty archaic! And you couldn't have a pint! Only halves!!!)

I hope it was in a proper lady's glass.

Alexandra, no women allowed in the Marines, the Infantry or the Royal Armoured Corps, or in submarines (I believe, not a tar myself) though they do serve alongside.

After amalgamation in 1958, my old mob had a white line painted across the bar and over the floor in the Sgts' Mess; West Yorks one side, East Yorks the other (no women there either).

I know what is that all about ! Even I wear a sports bra (tiny boobs :o) so goodness knows how they cope!

Oh and hello yomper, welcome :cool:

I am unofficially the worst fell runner on the forum - live in Nottingham, worked in London, and just started working Manchester, so spend more time working and on trains than running anywhere near any fells, well running at all is a trial at the moment... and they still talk to me so it is all fine :thumbup:

I fairness OHW is a fellrunning fashion icon, who can forget a chilly XOTF with One Hill wearing an angora (or was it Mohair) baselayer. None of your polyester/polyprop/pertex nonsense for her:thumbup:

May well do that, I'll work out who you are first and check your race results so as not to be humiliated on a training run! I'm just down the road in Ripon. I love coming up to Middlesmoor and Dale Edge, it's good training land..

I think you should both lay off, She is in the media remember and has a persona to up hold :)

"Some poor wretches live in the South of England!!!"

We do our best to overcome this distinct disadvantage, but it is impossible to practice those long steep ascents/descents except on the genuine terrain ....
