Hope all you ponies had a good un at Sedbergh. Woke up this morning feeling rough, tired and bad backed. Felt grim all week at work, so took the desicion to wimp out:( In bed at 10pm last night, up at 6.30, back to bed till dinnertime, still feel tired:eek:
hey merry, you've turned into a normal person, let's hope it doesnt last!
If this is how normal people feel, they can keep it, can't wait to get back to abnormal, just walked to the shop for some kidney beans and feel like i've run a mararthon:eek:Quote:

Lets just say the world needs to watch out for Fleeter if his form continues to improve at this rate:eek:
Glad you enjoyed it, look forward to the report, old head on young shoulders is our Fleeter, long may he improve:cool:Quote:

i was down in the results as a vet :p
Well, Merrylegs did say you had an old head on young shoulders. Maybe it's the age of your head that matters for race categories.Quote:

After the Ponies stupendous showing in the Worth Way Really? anybody on for this? Low key number, enter on the day and all hosted from a pub!

Four legs (so good for Ponies), 2 on the road and 2 on the fell.
Go on, you know you want to!
Am on a BG the night before but this looks like it could be amusing...who would get the road legs though;)Quote:

Any more for any more. Amex? Manhar? Doesn't Daz the Slug live round that way? Don't suppose Fatty Fellmonster would get off his voluminous arse?
Amex has twatted his Achilles again, i suggest you all text/phone him in an abusive way to help him on the road to recovery as he is hiding.Quote:

in other news - I now appear as a Fell Pony in the revised results for Snowdon (I forgot to wear my chip :D )
also DanAzz & I are entered as a Team in the first Dark&White Mini-Mountain Marathon (3 hour score event starting/finishing near Castleton) on Sept.14th...
You might be glad they are making you work next Saturday as the organisers measured the route a bit wrong...its more like 34 miles now:eek: and thats just to the finish on top of Snowdon...Quote:

Cycled a 50 miler with "Him off the tele" on Thursday went through Mountain Goatess country but no sighting a bit like this forum where has she gone?:eek:
Bad news about Amexs achillies:( ,will have to send him some abuse as advised by the Master.
Pudgy, I did notice your flashy socks at Sedbergh but had no breath to comment at you came past me on first hill with that pink Fleeter hot on your heels.:D
I will get round to entering Langdale, as I'm on for the slowest time ever for the Lakeland Classics. No flashy socks next time, unless I mug Marvin.
Hope it heals quick RPB:DQuote:

I planning on doing both, and completing the Lakeland Classics. Then I don't need to do them again. Ever.
Go for Chelmorton Daz. See you there!Quote:

So what now----------------- don't know:(
need to do some things to try and see if i can start again, have to take some time off running which as i am sure you all know is not easy.
It's fun and i enjoy the sweat running in my eyes, and nipples bleeding, i will keep you posted.
Right whats this i hear fleeter has joined a running club??
If so can he be burnt at a stake or something like that?
AK has cut him self on a pedal (girl! put some savlon on and stop moaning:p)
Oh and ML has a van outstanding just wait till we are all together Steve, we can look out of our windows at all the wet people!!
