Sleep.
always remember to turn your back to the wind before you peeeeeeeeee. :eek: :eek:
Max. ;)
Try and tie your laces up.
Follow through
Listen to your mate whos driving and tells you that it's downhill all the way to finish.
Only he had his village idiot hat on and since he had driven the other way, had forgotten we were going the way he had just come!!
erm.. do that most days but normally loose the sprint, they normally let me go after i have given them some attention.Quote:

Before we have the spouting of "what were you carryingone for!!!" my wife was expecting a child and I went off to do an off road marathon! She phoned to say she was bored!
Let me guess, it wasn't a pb that day!!!
...believe your faster, fitter pals when they say "just over the next rise and it's all downhill from there. We should be back in 10minutes..." :(
I was 5 miles from the end, but with a short cut back which could have taken me 10 minutes to get to the car. I was ready to leap like a loon through a few fields to the road and hare off in the car!Quote:

Almost run into a bus stop whilst chatting to another runner! :D
Run past the queue at a bus stop just as a woman holding a heavy can of paint raises her arm to flag down the bus. Caught me a very sensitive area, must to the amusement of the queue of people, i'm sure!

Run through snow covered gorse in shorts
Decide to cool off on a warm day during an ultramarathon by stuffing snow down your sports bra (obviously applicable to only some forum members) - it works, but I had excruciating muscle pain across my chest for about 2 days afterwards
Do all women cool down like this on a warm day?!Quote:

This year the lease was up & the cyclist put in a bid for the track, offering about £500,000 in investment (they actually got the backers to put up the money as well & plans for Commonwealth & Island games), plus stating they would take innitiatives to improve the park as a whole.
What happens? The godamn stockcars get their bid approved for another 7 years(when apparently all they were going to do was paint the stadium & resurface their bit of the track). I mean this Island produces world class track cyclists, gold medalists @ commonwealth levels, etc & yet when we put in a bid for a track of our own, it gets bloody turned down for a bunch of amatuer operators who are just out to make money. To my knowledge in the last 30+ years we have not yet produced any world champion stock car racers. It's f@cking lunacy. But then what else did we expect??? I suspect it was a case of "we don't like change" & stick with what you know!!
Funny they can close the roads anytime there's motoracing on, but they can't do that for any cycle event!!!
calm down allanQuote:

I had that the other week.....a couple of hundred sheep in the field. I'm sure they thought I was the farmer but was still, as you put it, sh%tting myself when they all came storming after me and penned me into the corner of the field!!:eek:Quote:

Cobbydale, Mr1470 perhaps you are just amazingly attractive and irresistable to sheep. Oh to be so blessed.
