And presumably a double...
The reduced weight helping you beat your pb??


A double indeed, the second one was more of an effort than the first, but funnily the first one is the one that has caused the most discomfort?!?!

I may have to try it wiggers !!

lovely day for it ! the water is still too cold at pennington for monday night swimming Unhappy


I don't think it would ever be warm enough for me to swim in Pennington Jonny, you're a brave man!!

Was pleased with the time considering the discomfort I had been in the last few days.

We're doing an 8k in Blackpool next week, not sure how I'll handle the extra distance but I'm told the course is flat which should make a difference!! Grin

Four days after having your taters slashed !! That's impressive


Cheers Ped, although if you saw me drag myself round the course it is anything but impressive. I should have publicised the slashed taters aspect to the other runners perhaps!! Wink

Nice to hear from you mate.

Yep, I keep on plodding along. Hoping to get at least another year or two until the weights become entirely too embarrassing. I am still competitive in the Masters domestically even with a spastic wrist and if I get that fixed the lifts should improve a bit as well, so I'm not done just yet!

I hope you are still keeping your hand in!!! Wink

To be competitive internationally I would need to be 'playing the game' and I'm not so I'm not so I won't..

Snip sounds very grim Jeff!

With a nice, new wrist, I fully expect your numbers to increase a fair bit - surely you do too?

Snip isn't that bad Jonny, all done and dusted now.

Getting the wrist fixed should help but that's only part of it. I need to get regular training in and eat properly to get the basic strength up to push the number up where they should be.

Blackpool 8k Fun Run with my eldest daughter who is 12.

Finally invested in some running shoes which made a difference.

Did it in around 52 minutes, about a minute behind Ell.

It was WINDY!! Unhappy
