Fatman to Ironman

Tell us the symptoms and we can help you find a cure

Or alternatively....................

Scary!

Symptons are pretty bad. Runny nose. Tickly cough. Laziness. Worst of all, last night after a couple of pints and a few glasses of wine I didn't fancy another glass! What do you think? Will I pull through? I haven't got an up to date will. I fell out with a friend from school 20 years ago and I always wanted to get back in touch one day. Oh well. Strange the things you think about when facing the inevitable.....

SD, definitely don't run today, you're more than ready for Norwich, and psychologically a shit run today will do you more harm than no run at all.

Oh.

Dear.

I'd get cracking with the bucket list if I were you

I would Nursey if I could get off the sofa

Spoons, this being 'off' the wine sounds very serious mate! I'll make sure I drink your share tonight, just in case

43 miles of rolling Bucks hills done and I see Spoons us still hanging on by a thread (not this thread)

Good going M...eldy 33miles for me. Did them slower than last week and was happy with that. Main problem is my feet and in particular my toes. Numb and frozen almost from the beginning. What am I going to do when it gets colder. Do other people suffer this. Bit worried about the longer rides

thick socks and good shoes normally keep me warm on the bike, personally I'm using Northwave Celsius GTX Boots 2013. Not taken them too far in to the minus numbers but up to that point they have worked for me.

SS,

I get numb feet when it is cold.  I bought a pair of toe covers. Like thick socks that go over your shoes and cover the front half of your shoes.  They have cut outs for the cleats. Makes a big difference. Cost £9.

Old socks are cheaper

Hi All,

67km yesterday on the bike. Got dropped by the club on every hill; they ride like the hills are not there. TBH I could feel Thrusday's hill session when I walked down the stairs in the morning, so I'm putting it down to that.

Still managed to bang out the 11km 'long slow' run today at sub-vomit pace. Now to find an end of year 5km to beast.

SS you do need to layer up, and get some good socks and some good overshoes. Some of the winter rides last year I didn't get warm on, though it was -6 out. Water bottles started to freeze up.
