    I did the race for life with Mrs S off the daily chat. Not helped by the three bottles of wine we drank last night!!! (although I spilt three glasses full).

    Loads of people just walked it was so hot and a friendly neighbour had his hosepipe out too...

    was he good looking?

    Took today's run cautiously in mind of the heat and the dehydration at the end of last week's long run. It felt comfortable in the end but I dont think that I'd have wanted to have been going much quicker today.

    Haven't read back through the thread yet but well done to everyone getting out in the sauna today, in particular KMS in the Edinburgh Marathon...cant have been easy!

    Hi Sally,

    Nice run this morning, but be careful with those knees!

    Becky is fine but she has temporarily lost her internet connection at home so can only post from work, and she wont be posting much from there this week cos she's at a conference in Vienna (alright for some!:rolleyes:). She'll be back on soon enough though.....

  • All that running you lot did yesterday makes me feel like a right slacker. All I managed was a 45 min walk with gf+dog after work. Then it was down to making burgers and manly bbq duties :rotfl:. GF bought me a short sleeved running top :j so I can now retire my long sleeved one till winter. I wish I could run before work but I really don't want to get up at 3am and I think GF might have a fit if I started doing that :rotfl:

    Well done scorgeous for braving it in the heat.
    I wonder if they tried to eject alias from the RFL
