A warm one today 👍
Brett
Are you about in Keighley tomorrow afternoon between 1 & 6 pm ?
Not quiet around here. A prat in a nearby holiday cottage has decided to bring his drone with him on holiday. I'm cutting the grass there tomorrow morning so hopefully he has left it on the lawn!
Ha ha ha or you advertise for a spot of clay pigeon shooting on your lawns.
Unfortunately not Trev - away on holiday

Two weeks ago I’d never raced on a track.

Our Somalian superstar provided most of the day’s entertainment... ran a sub-4min 1500m.... 20 minutes later he lined up in the 5000m... on lap two he stopped to re-tie his shoelace, losing about 100 metres in the process, but still ran out winner in 15:04....
What a beast...
The Discuss or the Discus? Were they throwing heavy plates, or just talking to each other?Quote:

Safe flight Llani
Afternoon 👍, anyone got any good news?
Yup, got the forum working again :)
Good work Brett
Was it broken?
I couldn’t post last night or this morning
Thanks for update DT. Hope the treatment is going positive 👍
At Airedale hospital having chemo now Stagger. All as good as we could have hoped. Just been talking fellrunning with another patient. Hope you’re okay
Onwards and upwards Tup!
Good to know the treatment is progressing.
All fine here thanks.
Thinking about you mate👍
Obviously I don't know you guys, and I haven't read this entire thread :rolleyes: but just wanted to wish you all the best and hope it works Derby Tup!!
Also thanks to Brett for fixing the forum, good job. I was quite confused there for a little while :confused:
Thanks DangerMouse. All considered I’ve been lucky. I was diagnosed with a primary tumour low down in my rectum in December plus three or four metastasis in my liver. I had operations in January (key hole resection of rectum at Airedale done by Mr Kahn - a top man) and February (open op liver resection by the legend that is Prof Lodge at the Bexley Wing at Jimmy’s in Leeds). I’ve managed to run a couple or three times a fortnight since about seven weeks after my second op including Parkrun last 17 weeks and four fell races. Support from friends, family, colleagues, customers and running pals has been immense. Stef my wife has been an utter rock. Chemo due to finish end October
A bit of advice especially for any middle aged forum uses (that’s about everyone then). If you find yourself passing blood unexpectedly get yourself off to the GP. If you have the lolly sticks to poo on for testing please get on with it. Similarly if you lose weight and you’re say in your fifties or older also go to the GP. If bowel / colon / rectal cancer runs in your family please get speaking to your doctor and consider a colonoscopy. My GP was outstanding in her manner and follow ups when I presented with prime symptoms of colorectal cancer. Don’t ignore symptoms please - my mum died six years ago from what I had after doing just that
Sound advice young man. All the very best to you.
Wow - that's totally amazing that you are running and doing so well - most impressive - long may it continue!
Thank you for speaking about this so frankly; definitely middle aged here (48 trips round the sun and counting), happy to say no blood where there shouldn't be any - thankfully. I definitely won't be ignoring that if it ever happens!
I was a bit of a lapsed runner but we trained for and did a 50 mile LDWA walk last summer. The fitness I had from that has helped plus a positive general outlook. I’ve had some black days but surprisingly few. I’m way too young to just crumble and let it beat me (I’m 55 now). I was also determined to talk about it once everything had sunk in and my diagnosis and treatment plan was in place. If I can help one person overcome their fears and go to get tested I’ll be happy. Cancer is ubiquitous; everyone I’ve spoken to knows someone who’s had it but outcomes and treatments are improving all the time. It doesn’t have to be the death sentence it was in the past
