Shielsy - a miniscule mention in an article in the paper is much better than just appearing in the "list of finishers". I still like to get the papers with the list of finishers and send it to my Dad to say "look, I made the news!". Well done on your 3rd place. I see the race got a mention in the BBC News web page for the false start.

Also, well done on your club session, sounds hard.
Vixx - sorry that your op has had to be delayed. It's better to wait and have a completely successful op than one that you end up not really happy with in the end.
Mr SJ - excellent race there. Hope the knee is not grumbling too much today.
Snoopy - How is Cooper getting on? I hate it when people let their aggressive dogs off the lead and so don't control them properly.
Mandie - How is Bobbi getting on too? I'm presumimg that no news is good news.
I was Volunteer Coordinator at parkrun last weekend and then I helped to enter the results after as I am getting shown more of the "responsible" tasks at parkrun. Our pregnant parkrunner turned up but did not run and later on that night she had a boy. I had a quick chat and she did joke that if she did run and it bounced out, she'd just scoop it up and carry on!
I might have to pop out at lunch for a run as I've got a flat 10K race this Sunday and I need to test my knee over about 5 miles before I commit to going to the race. It will only be my second run since the end of September when I picked up the injury.
