    Its funny how we drove right past Freckleton after the Blackpool Marathon and were talking about how it sounded like a quaint village type name.

    And then, hey presto, a good race pops up in the very same village. Must get entered.:D

    But surely they've arranged it at 2pm especially for you, Chick, so you dont have to get up too early after the 'big event' - you still have time for a champagne breakfast and shenanigans before going racing.;)

    Can you enter me too please - I am very very poor since I have spent all my money on train tickets to Leeds :p:p:D:D:D

    Booo I am bored of tapering now - I just had the thought that it would be nice to go out for a 13 miler tonight - jeez what I am going to be like next week ;):D

    Shhhh Sally!!!! It is true though - we were both sooo much better financially off before we meet - but even though hes expensive I wouldnt give him up :D

    You've got to stick with it. Give it another few weeks and you'll stop wanting to run and will want to sit and eat cake instead.

    that's pretty much where I am now (although I did put down my cupcake to type this :D)

    I am altitude training..........

    Lots of carbs being consumed :D My legs are killing me, and I have yet to master this bloomin French keyboard in the internet cafe so forgive me for lack of posting and any spelling mistakes!!

    No time to read everything but hope tapering is going according to plan!
