Beeer versus wine too tough. Half mara today oin 1.37 so happy if we can keep going in April and keep the focus. Will be a big mileage month as have 3 halves and vlm!!! Great for motivation and gets rid of the excuses. Salt versus vinegar too tough too. oooh errr...mmmmmm Milk versus dark chocolate, tea versus coffee, beer versus lager?

Just checking in to say a big thank you to Bruce for offering to keep this going, it's very addictive! Count me in for April.

I have zero imagination, so I'll leave suggestions for dividing up the teams to the right-brain thinkers.

Finished of the month with 55 unlogged miles in the Glasgow - Edinburgh Double marathon, but it looks like a fine late surge from team brown sauce put them well out of reach anyway. Will be happy to continue in April, but probably on a rather reduced mileage!

Great news that this is going to continue - thanks a lot Bruce!

I'm happy to go with the flow in terms of team choices - I thought having three teams was great, and it really helped to keep it close for most of the month (until the mighty Brown's superiority shone through

)

I'm going for what I expect to be a very painful 4-5mile recovery jog as part of my trip into work. It will be painful for two reasons, one being I don't want to go to work today, the second being that I have a serious case of DOMS from the hilly 18miles I did on Saturday

Excellent Bruce......a good little motivator, and good to have a little bit of competition between friends

How about......Cats, Dogs or Neither. Or Fave junk food...Fish n Chips, Chinese, Indian or Pizza.

April is now open for business ... still need to have a tinker for those late March entries but hopefully will be soon.

At the moment its still on the sausage sandwhich teams, but should we decide to switch in a few days it is a very simple process to reset it, so let me know what you want ....

Adidas, I like the dogs, cats or none one !

well....seeing as its Easter..how about dark choc v milk choc v white choc?

Bruce C

02/04/2012 at 18:06

ah Loulabell, there is a bit of a flaw with that one ... what about those of us that only ever see it as CHOCOLATE !!

.....well, it means instead of devouring it with your eyes shut and it not even registering- you have to concentrate and decide which you like best

Only if we have a 4th who cares what sort option

Bruce - I think Loulabell's link to Easter is a great idea...

How about what Easter produce sums up Easter for you? Options could be hot cross buns, Easter eggs, or Simnel Cake....

Or, what chocolate based product do you associate with Easter? Options could be eggs, bunnies, or who cares as long as it's chocolate....
