    Feeling hungover all day, didn't sleep well last night after having 3 bottles of beer on an empty stomach :rolleyes: so there was only one thing for it, feed and water myself and head out for a run, brought doggy with me and had to pick her up and run with her for the last half mile, there were some funny looks.:D

    Really enjoyed this run, that's 4 days running in a row, the love is returning.:)

    Softly softly catchy monkey boss, I have to thread a fine line between running relatively hard while making sure I don't set myself back.

    A shortarse like me, he'd end up breaking my nose instead...


    Sooner or later I'm going to plateau - the combination of whatever ability I have, the training I can put in, and my resistance to injury, is going to see me level off. Your goal is not to reach that level before me, but to make sure your peak is higher...

    Is that directed at me? :eek:

    Average runner wants to get to your level, I on the other hand want to leave you crying into a big snot bubble on the finish line of some race in the future. :)
