I was going to write something sensible - then the foaming in Joolska and PMJ's shorts has made me lose all concentration!!!

Happy running for those out tonight - after slow 7 last night, am going to take a full rest today, legs still sore.

I think PMJ did a great LSR but nipples, foam etc etc.....

Lorenzo - Congrats mate, very exciting news!! (I hope he's a bit quicker than you though!!!!!) , my eldest (7) has just started trying to copy my running and wants to get on the treadmill and exercise the whole time - makes me very proud.

MM - Welcome back - Hope the lurgy leaves you soon - congrats on the awards, And as others have said if you are racing up to 20 miles...Are you sure you don't want to....

Poacher - Agree with sentiment entirely.  The problem really is that it takes say 1000 units of effort to get close to a certain time, but to beat that time it is often another 1000 units of effort, and that is what makes it so hard 

7 very slow ones home last night - was suprisingly ok - a few pain points in ITB and calf but not bad overall.  Had pencilled in another 7 slow back to work this morning, but legs very sore, so have taken morning off, and will try again tonight.

Gobi - Very impressive well done.

7 home last night was not much fun - and woke up today very sore.  Decided not to do the planned 7 in - but will hope to do on way home again.

Marty - That's the problem - for me every other year completing the marra has been the main course, this year it is just the starter!!

Anyway 7 slow ones home done and dusted.  Felt a bit stiff and sore but not too bad.  Will try another 7/8 in tomorrow and see whether I can manage the same home.
