Vote Sarah in GFA - previously lardy girl does good! ;)

Friends with bacon. Who like running. It's AAAALLLL good

In many ways, I'm the perfect friend

How's the sub 20min 5k challenge coming on? Hope you haven't beaten me already!!

hi, im York, but if im at my parents in sheffield, nottingham would be about half way between us im sure. Will have to look at the dates

Sarah - That would be fab! So where's halfway if you're in York ... ?

RRR - mine is 22:22 so I'm a bit behind!! Got some catching up to do, but I do love a challenge See you in the 19 minutes...!

See you in the 19s ...! You reckon we can knock 2 minutes off by mid 2013?

Sounds like you will win on the effort you have put into mobilise the vote. I didnt really have any electronic friends or friends that savvy with running and computers, think I had very few on FBook and none on Twitter, not really got into Twitter at all.....too busy working of course. Who do you work for with 13500 employees? They have been generous to put you on the intranet. Well done and if you dont get the call today all the best for your running and come over to one of our nutty threads and say hi if you haven't turned pro runner and if you are at any races let us know though we might spot you now you have been all over here. All the best to all the folk campaigning. Dont envy you at all, didn't enjoy that part last year.

MCS - I wish I had your faith I follow and chat with a lot of runners on Twitter - have a really, really nice group on there. They keep me sane, cheer me up and cheer me on. Same with Facebook - I feel very loved this week. Even if I don't make it through, I will always be very grateful for the support. Think I owe people a LOT of drinks for their efforts!

Will definitely keep on popping in to say hi on Au Revoir Cobbles thread. I haven't been on so much recently as haven't liked to look as though I'm campaigning for votes!

Whereabouts are you based? Would be great to catch up at a race!

Definitely! Bring it on...

Eek! Heading for the M1 now ... trying to navigate my way through freezing fog! The weather should make my run this evening more atmospheric though! Woooo-ooo-ooo!

Drive safely!

Oooh oooh - if you're heading Nottingham way - let me know - I've done the Colwick parkrun a few times - it's not the fastest but it's nice... ps - since you're all faster than me just now - maybe I'll do the beep beeping at the registration instead! LOLOLOLOLOL

RRR, Nottingham is good for me. I spend alot of my time back in sheffield anyway

We could form a sub 19 thread??

Thank you Bacon Steve!

SB - I've heard the Colwick parkrun mentioned a few times as a good one. I think one of my twitter buddies must run there. Well ... sounds a plan! Sarah - Any race we do Nottingham way should include a Saturday morning parkrun in Colwick? What do you reckon? Sounds good to me! Would be good to have a catch up SB!

Sarah - Are you trying to KILL me? Can't we start with sub 20???

Sub 19?!? You're certainly ambitious Sarah!

SB, care to join us on the sub-20-not-quite-as-fast-as-Sarah thread?

SB, Steve, Sarah - So ... this is to be our 2013 challenge then?

All this talk of sub 19min 5ks has made me feel quite faint! I'd be more than happy getting as close to 20 as possible.
