The legacy of the GNR.

I used to have lovely painted toenails, now they are all shrivelled up

I sympathise Linda - I've lost a couple (that are growing back nicely) and still have 3 black ones. It's taken me three attempts to get the correct shoe size but now I have gone up one whole size I'm not getting any further problems.

Thanks for the report kms; it's so helpful reading other people's reports of races.

Congratulations Saz _party_ _party_

Passed my fitness test again today, did actually the best score ive done in about 8 years, so must be doing something good. Could of gone a bit further, feel a little gutted but i put that to the cold i have.

The fitness test is shuttle runs, then press-ups & sit-ups. Running with the beeps, 25mtrs apart getting faster at each level increment.

Out of the group, no one failed which was a good sign.

Maybe next time ill break through level 11.0
