    Very impressed. How long does it take and od you have showers in your workplace? And will you be running home as well?

    Errant son often got a lift into work if he was doing an early shift and then ran home in the afternoon, about 5 miles - and then straight into the shower :)


    It takes me about 1 hour 45 minutes. I normally cycle to work, but I tend to run once a week or so. So on those days I cycle to work, run home, run back in the following day, then cycle home. If that makes sense! So that way I only have to run 12 miles on each of the two days. Although I often add on a few extra miles on the way home as I'm training for a marathon at the moment :-).


    I'm very lucky in that I've got lovely showers and changing rooms at work. I bring my clothes and lunch in on the bike for 2 days, so I only have to carry water and my mobile when I'm running. I love cycling and running to work, most of the journey is very peaceful and rural so I see lots of wildlife and there are lovely views. :)

    sounds perfect apart from having to set off for work nearly 2 hours early :)

    That's not really a problem as I normally cycle so I'm used to my commute taking a while! I don't really think of it as a commute so much as it's just a good excuse to do things that I really enjoy; cycling and running :). I could drive it in under 30 minutes, but I wouldn't enjoy that at all!

    Does everyone know that the Hummingbird thingy is back on TCB? This is day one and I've won 10p :j

    Also on the darkside there was a weird survey about the Wallstreet journal a few days back which I completed and the £5 amazones reward has come back for that already :)

    I finally sorted out the problem I had with an amazones e voucher on vouchercodes just by going to the account via another device so that was another £10

    Both my rec pig £5 paypal and £5 amazones from shopixes came through so not a bad result for one mornings mainly e mail tidying up :)

    Yes and its a good thing I checked this morning as the clciksnappy I did on the 8th went through just as 1p so I had to resnap it :(

    And then I found the humming board game was live again :)

    For the yoghurt I got one through at 1p, and then other one for £1.19. Very odd!
