Just popping in here to say you can get a copy of this in Hodgis Figgis on Dawson Street. They had loads of copies the last time I was in there about a month ago.
Hi Ososlo, my neighbour!
I actually ordered it from Hughes & Hughes.
I was thinking how high their rents are in that Omni centre and how the shop is always empty so I opted to give them the business and wait two weeks for it.
Thanks though

Thank u so much, really makes it all worthwhile! Feel as proud as punch now! Lol! I'm sure a lot or even most of us have lot troubles n hardships going on in their lives that we not aware of, we tend to think only of the running aspect in people n not their lives in general. Appreciate all ur comments etc.RunningKing wrote: »New Runner- your earlier post does pose an interesting point for all us Boardsies, we don't really have a clue what goes on in other people's lives and for them, even going for a run is a big achievement.
your 1st marathon was 7 mins faster than my first one, and I'm in full health!! No doubt you can go faster!!
Respect to you for your achievements on and off the road. 0 -

Well done Killian ! Great running n strong steady heart rate !KillianByrne wrote: »Having half heartedly attempted the 'speedwork' section of my plan a couple of times previously by not finishing it or cutting the intervals in half I found a bit of HTFU in the wardrobe and committed to doing it today.
The plan was 1m warm up, 4 x 1m sectors at 7.56 with .5m jogs in between
I forgot what times I had to do the speed bits in so I just ran as fast as I could and the results were surprising!
1m warm up - 10.27 - 130bpm
1m speed - 7.26 - 162bpm
.5 walk/rest
1m speed - 7.30 - 164bpm
.5m walk/rest
1m speed - 7.51 - 161bpm
.5m walk/rest
1m speed - 7.29 - 162bpm
.5m walk/rest
.33 cool down -143bpm
Total time: 01.12.32
Total Dist: 7.34m
Total Cal: 926
Avg BPM: 144
it was tough, but delighted that I did all 4 and kept the pace up and that both speed & HR kept pretty steady...and there are some of you want to run a marathon that fast?!

Hi all
I've had the honour of being appointed this years mentor for the DCM novices thread. I will be assisted my Blockic and Career Move (so one glamorous assistant anyway
)
I do however have a favour to ask of my fellow novices from last year. One of the things I'd like to do with this years thread is each week, during the main training weeks, have one for want of a better phrase "guest speaker" who would give a brief run down of their first DCM story from deciding to do it, through training and finally the day itself. A lot / the bulk of that could be a copy and paste from your race report so it shouldn't be too much of a chore but I am hoping to get 18 people whose story would provide motivation for this years group. And obviously a majority from the previous years thread would be preferable ! It's a while away in fairness but I'm raising the flag now as advance warning. 0 -

Hi PM, I'd be glad to be a 'guest speaker' for next years rookies. While I may not have the best stories from the day since it didn't go great I've learned a lot in the last few months as to why that happened.0 -

Best of luck PM, i know you'll do a fantastic job mentoring this years crew. They'll have plenty of HTFU if they take after there mentor. Sorry about your assistants though, really scraping the barrel there!!0 -
