So who's going to come to Lincoln next week and run in this pleasant evening race?

Bargain price, but no thrills, and if fit, a fast time a possibility.

Definitely worth doing.

Pat and the kids are doing it but I'll be at Rockingham (bit naughty missing my own club's race, but I'll live with it).

Skidpan. Are the kids doing the full distance this year, or the 3K? Tell Pat, I'll see her there. Enjoy Rockingham.

They're both doing the 5k, which they'll certainly enjoy more.

My trip to Rockingham is in doubt because of my cold/breathing thing which seems to be getting worse. I may be at the 5k after all.

Big Dicko - is Little Dicko doing it as well?

Looks like it could be a good turn out then. Thought it was a little dissapointing numbers wise last year.

Skidpan-little Dicko is not allowed out to play.

Poor chap - has he been naughty?

Skidpan

I'll be there tonight after all.

I know what the cause of the breathing problem was - but I'll probably just plod around at the back of the field.

Fat Squirrel

21/05/2003 at 15:04

Oh goody. Will see you tonight then. Can the problem be sorted out easily?

Fat Squirrel

21/05/2003 at 15:04

First run in a Boston and District AC vest tonight. Will I get lynched?

Skidpan

21/05/2003 at 15:12

The problem was two lots of medication 'clashing' with each other.

You may not get lynched but we might just not talk to you.

Fat Squirrel

Goodness. And no one realised? Glad my colleagues in the NHS are as with it as ever.

Please talk to me oh very nice LW people. I only went there because I work in Boston more than Lincoln these days. A lot more.

Skidpan

Just goes to show I should only talk to the nurses and not the GPs!!!

Obviously we'll talk to you if you throw vast amounts of money at us - or maybe just the £3.50 entry fee for the race.

See you later.

Fat Squirrel

Yes, nurses fab :-) Especially Children's Nurses.

Well, will be a bit more than £3.50 if I manage to actually do the series and not get injured this year after the first one!

Results from last night's races are now available here

Big Dicko - did Jim D run last night. If so, is he one of the 'unknown's in the results?

Fat Squirrel

Nice prompt results. Shame mine are wrong!!! Made my time 6 seconds faster. Still never mind, didn't get under 20 minutes as hoped anyway.

What crappy weather Skidpan. Sort it out for the next one will you.

Thanks to the marshalls and organisers for getting wet too. Well beyond the call of duty.

Nice to see all the LW guys, who did talk to me after all!

Simon, how did you get on? Were you pleased?

Skidpan

Personally I thought the weather was ideal. I ran a lot better than I had done on Sunday but clearly way off what I would deem to be OK.

Which way do you think your results were wrong - were you faster or slower than the results said?
