  • there are some men with some very short thumbs out there...



    Not when they see their small thumbs they don't.....



    It's because they are doing a double take - when they see the small thumbs

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    hey Lenny, no I don't run that far over, way to far for me to go and then have to come back! I did 13.3 miles though. I did see a race in plymouth at the weekend which i did consider...still considering but depends if DH is going on some bike thing and whether I can persuade my mum to look after DD whilst I run...and of course there is the cost ahhhhhhhhh

    You found yeovil ok then?
