They were all brilliant to be fair. I was just like one of the boys and they all looked after me. We were all there for the running, we took part in the Breakfast Run the day before and all had a great time in the race itself. It is still a very fondly-remembered weekend.

Blimey I go away for a couple of hours and come back to Rich and Becky having a loved up run in Venice...
Anyway report back from the Dr (who was some young whipper snapper probably younger than me locum :mad: ) said that he couldn't feel/see any major damage and that it was just strain to either muscle or ligament. He did point out that I have very flexible/movable knee caps though and that this might have caused the strain and gave me some exercises to improve the muscles around the knee. He did say to take it easy for another couple of weeks but could ease back into it Gently :j . He knew nothing about the free genetic Heart test that is now available so waiting for him to find out about that!
Beautiful day out today, going to take DD to park and then to Ballet lesson this afternoonI'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

OR, Marathons are like men.......
1. It feels great to get one over and done with?
2. They never appreciate how much work you have done in getting ready for them?
3. They go on and on and on .........?
4. They always seem to want you to perform at 9 o'clock in the morning?
5. They don't do the ironing?
6. They get harder to deal with as time goes on?
7. Length doesn't matter (oh, yes it does!)?
8. You deserve a medal for tackling one?
9. They can be a painful experience?
10. When you say 'Never Again' you don't really mean it?
On the other hand, you're unlikely to find a man called 'Flora'!Gt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j

Yep, the usual scenario. Just try to get as much walking done as you can in everyday activity, especially hill walking. Fit it in and around everything and you'll soon feel the strength building until its no longer as fragile.Gt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j

RichOneday;15793403]OR, Marathons are like men.......
My, you've been thinking about this. I particularly like (2) and (4).
How about:
11. Each one is a challenge in its own unique way;
12. When you experience a bad one, you know what to do differently next time;
13. You don't take one on without expecting to work hard at it.Sealed Pot Challenge #8 £341.90

Brilliant you lot - I go away to get some shopping in and look what I come back to!!! Oh you'll have to do better than that to upset me by the way...
