    Oh yes, not that I was saying the view of Sammy's a'rse was bad ;)

    I've just looked at some of the 10k pics, I don't know everyone's surnames but you do all look great, and Spud you look like such a proper runner :T

    A proper runner who's really let emselves go :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Spud - seriously, you are so tall that you carry your weight really well.... you're lucky you're not a short arris like me....

    some of my race pics look like my face is made of plastic and melting off me!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Daffers - well done on the running! how far, how fast? details please, details!!
    Thanks Maz :o bit embarrassed now to say it was only a mile, it took 15 minutes, I was running for 2 and walking for 1 (or thereabouts) but it felt good - my legs would've gone further than my lungs but it was hot too!

    I realised it is almost 3 years exactly, I did a charity marathon WALK and ended up with bursitis (spud is that what you had?) but it just would not go despite injections and all sorts, then I fell pregnant and ate :rotfl: but I am determined to get back on track, I've been using the cross-trainer in short bursts, should keep that up too... got to change things :)

    Right, before I get my hair off, could some kind soul please tell me how much it would be to get a coach from B'ham international to Heathrow (terminal 3 I think) on the 30th of June am?

    I have been trying for over a half an hour and ready to scream.


    Tigz-I like SW.

    Spud, haven't seen photos but I bet you look fab.

    Maz-I would have organised things more but hate to look a bossy boots...Next time I shall take the reins more if it helps-I was gutted not to have a picture with all of you...therefore, everyone HAS to come to do the RFL in Shrewsbury with me. Even if it's not a 'real race'....
