Sarah - Hope it goes well! Eek for doing housework at 10pm! Flippin' viewers! Let's hope they put an extra high offer in for an immaculate house

5k PB 21:34 as of 3 weeks ago - so you kicked my butt at bootcamp. I'll chase you down yet Sub 20 is my ultimate goal as sub-30 was my target 2 years ago!

DS2 - I wasn't feeling the sock-love ... and can't believe you didn't vote for me Hee hee!

DS2 thankyou for our special mention! me and Sarah were just saying how nice you are!

Minni I set of for work just before 8, luckily its only a ten min drive for me to work. I would like to run to work but the roads are not very safe and there are no pavements or cycle lanes. I also need my car for home visits as I never know how many I will get and where they are going to be. 5:30 sounds very early. I don't think I will be doing many early starts especially as I tend to stay up quite late. Hope you have a good run in the morning.

House all done. Luckily we don't have to show them around, the nice estate agents do it for us. That's what I want now, a sub 20 mins......might attempt it on Saturday!

You wouldn't catch me running at 5:30am. I'm far too lazy.

Ooh fab target Sarah! Bacon Steve and I are aiming for sub-20 5ks too ... but I think we have further to go than you, Miss Super-Speedy!

Let me know how you get on! Will be rooting for you to get in the 19s ...!

Haha, thankyou for the compliment, but comparing my self to others on here, ive still got a long way to go!

The only problem with this saturday is that its after my OH christmas party the night before, so I might not be at my best!

Well we think you're speedy! Good luck dipping into the 19s on Saturday - I'm determined to join you there but it may take a little longer in my case...

I managed to get ROUND a parkrun on Saturday on my birthday with a hangover ... I count that as a win! Reckon you could definitely manage sub-20 with a hangover

Bacon Steve - Sorry, what?

I guess there are worse things you could be called

Im not to sure RRR, as im getting older my hangovers are getting worse!

My first time on this Rinner's World Forum. It looks really good. Good luck for the vote, Sarah. I was looking at some pictures of Paris today that are displayed in my gym. Magical city!

Sarah yes I guess so! Grateful for small mercies eh? Let us know how you get on (and how bad the hangover was!)

William - welcome to the forum - only been on here a very short time myself but everyone has been so welcoming. Sure you'll enjoy it

Thank you Steve, very kind of you.

Hi Bill, lovely to see you on here. Over the last week ive met some fabulous like minded people on here, its full of useful tips and running advice. If I make it through are you still going to try and run Paris aswell? I loved Paris this year when I went for the first time, its such a magnificent clean city, I would be over the moon if I got to visit it again and run around its streets next year

I will let you know how I get on, on saturday Steve, win or loose!

Hi Sarah, I can honestly say that having known you for a number of years (? 20!), that you're one of the most crazy-hard-working people I know - you never stop! You always do your very best and really deserve to win this. Good luck! X

Well least I managed a slightly hilly 10k at 7.5min/ml and then some core/strength training at the gym tonight.

Fingers crossed I will make it to the pool tomorrow night after my 13 hour shift to fit in some cross training!

Hi Nicola, thank you ever so much for your kind message. I hope your move is going smoothly. I can't wait to catch up with you at Christmas to hear all about your new home and job,x
