RichM they have shorter routes, so could train and ride on the hybrid, but just save time now and get yourself a proper bike already!

    zackster nice! I skate pretty regularly, but not sure I’d be so confident trying to shoot pucks. Might have to give one of the local hockey ‘start up’ courses a go one day for a laugh.

      In this heat I run on a treadmill in an air conditioned gym.

      Which is nice.

      Played Astro last night in the heat, was like playing in a oven, talk about suffering

      Luckily the Standard Charterd Great City race around the city of London was cancelled, would have been hell running that after work today

      Played two hours of doubles (tennis) last night. Balls were flying in this heat.

      Lol. Would say that’s more down to your age, Dan.

      rhouses Outside of the heat, it actually wouldn’t have been too bad, just lots of effort. And lol, no ice cream, but I did eat enough for two people.

      Dubman Thanks, I’m pretty happy with how I did given it was the first one. Really looking forward to the 25 km race in October. Hursty’s definitely on a different planet from me yet.

      Hursty Cheers, I absolutely love trail running. Have to go back to mostly roads for a month to get ready for the half marathon, but I’ll do mostly trails after that. Have to decide by December if I’m going to sign up for the 50 km in September of next year. I seem to be hooked on it. And you’re right about the hills, you get faster, but the perceived effort doesn’t really change.

              RichM Good luck with the half, you’ve got lots of time to train to get under two hours given your past times. The challenge to me is the best part of it. I’m curios to see where my limit is and that’s what drives me to keep training.

                If Zacko isn’t olympic skill level at rollerblading, i will eat my imaginary hat…
