Asphalt is evil

That's another choice quote to get printed on a T-shirt!

BTW - What's the difference between asphalt and tarmac?

BTW - What's the difference between asphalt and tarmac?

A piece of tarmac walks into the bar and orders a pint. He then knocks over a pint, which belongs to a piece of asphalt. The asphalt roars "Hey, what on earth do you think you're doing?" "Sorry mate, look, OK, I'll buy you another pint" - which he duly does. A little while later another road type material walks in and knocks over the asphalt's pint. The asphalt says to the new guy, "its OK, don't worry about it, I'll get myself a new one." The new guy walks away, and the tarmac asks the asphalt, "why didn't you shout at him." The asphalt replied, "can't you tell? He's a cyclepath!"

What do you get if you cross a motorway with a wheelbarrow?

Run over.

Anyway, back to the training: 40 mins of thrashing up and down a boggy 1/4 mile hill. Bring on the bogs at the Grin n Bear It!

.....groan..... Not sure which was worse - yours or Ians!

I'm out on the fells tonight. Promises to be *interesting* tonight....!

Agree with the point re. tarmac. I ran home from work yesterday (about 12 miles on the roads) and had little niggles here and there. I can run for hours on the fells and have no problems at all. Think I will definitely have to reconsider the way I train.

I think you must be doing something right Marko - I see you are down for Tanky's errr... not Tanky's I mean.
