New Picture of BK for New Runner - Clubhouse

Many thanks to Dog Walkers dad who took part of my new picture during the 12th kilometer of the Theale 10K race. The remainder is courtesy of DW who thought New Runner might appreciate the joke

Well you know how long they take! Or is it the maths you're wondering about?

The anticipation is killing me.

You said there was a joke there. Trouble is, I don't geddit. Explanation would be helpful, as I'm a bit slow on the uptake today.

Oh yes, I can't work out the math either, (or is that the joke?)

The joke was in the picture and stems from the fact New Runner said she saw me at Burnham Beeches hanging around the portaloos.

Re the distance they sent the first half of the field round a 2 km detour. Hence the picture shows no number as I didn't want my time recorded. Had the pleasure of running with Redhead which made up for it

I really don't think a piccy of you hanging around a toilet is a very good idea Alex.

(If in any doubt, ask George Michael.)

Sorry, that should be Mike, not Alex.

Looks as if I've changed my name as well. Alexander Michael sounds different I suppose.

What's in any reputation anyway, at least I'm wearing clothes

Stop Press!!! Blue Knees' knees are really blue! Hi Kids! hows it going? I was a little concerned I hadn't heard a peep this morning from any of you senior forumites!!!

27/08/2002 at 13:36

Did you mean Senior or just plain old!

BK!!!!!!!!Well well well - what can I say except thank you!! Very funny indeed - particulary when I feel today like I spent most of the weekend in a drunken mess ( I did!) and therefore needed something to take the edge of the rather severe hangover! Laughed out loud when I saw this!
And more to the point - back to running tonight - have rested properly for a full week and cant wait to get out there!

Weekends in a drunken mess, sounds very familiar.

Remember don't overdo tonight and upset that muscle again

I wont - planning to get back to my schedule and do a gentle 3/4 miles - determined now to run really slow but to get the miles in...only 8 full weeks of training left before I taper down, pack up and fly off to the Big Apple! Going too quickly..!

Just plain old I guess! You can't say I didn't try to be polite now can you?!

Where has the portaloo gone????

28/08/2002 at 09:46

I'm trying to leave that sordid bit of my past behind... if you'll let me forget it

G.O.G.I.

28/08/2002 at 09:48

You're past it what makes you who you are today. Bring back the portaloo or I'll start a national campaign (and groin was fine last night thanks for asking!)

So going back to the pants thing.... What are you going to do!!!? I trust you've explored all avenues?
