Hello again, i am still in the land of the living although my racing days are over, i'm waiting for the results of an x-ray on my left knee which will dictate just what happens next.

My family problems have been dealt with and the the best possible outcome has been achieved (although not ideal) 

I trust everyone is giving their best in training, given the terrible wet conditions we are all experiencing. York is suffering some of the worst floods in living memory with the Ouse over 14 feet higher than normal.

I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Congratulations JJ, your  medal for bravery is long overdue

Sadly, i need to take time out from the forum for a while, i have returned from Eastnor at the weekend to be confronted ( if thats the right word ) with some serious family matters which need to be resolved. There's not a lot else i can add at the moment other than to say i will return.

Take care all

Just got back home from Tewkesbury, after completing Eastnor 8 mile multi-terrain, in some extreme muddy and hilly conditions. My legs are covered in little cuts and  bruises because on the down hill  sections it was difficult to stay on your feet.However a good time was had by all and the meal afterwards in the Indian resturaunt made it all worthwhile.

Welcome back DD, i wondered where you had got to. 

I've found time to run this afternoon, just a gentle little bimble of 5 miles in perfect conditions.

I'm off to Eastnor Castle this weekend for a challenging 7 miler, in some extreme muddy conditions, should be a great stress buster.

I hope everyone has a good weekend, whatever you are up to  !

TE, a belated well done from me as well.

For me there just is'nt enough hours in the day to get everything in, this working full time caper is going to have to go!

I've got both son and daughter buying new houses, so the pair of them want dads help and advice with things.

Running on the back burner today for footie tonight instead .
