Vee's Journal

[runveerun]

Seen it happen - actually did it once, at PT's place so there was an audience of only one...

But in Wellington there's loads gentlemanly blokes who would have helped (eventually! :grin:). Something to look forward to....

So you're THAT girl... the one I overtake at the 3km, 5km, and 7km mark, only to see her pass me at 4km, 6km, 8km and the FINISH LINE :evil: :grin: :clap:

Oh I feel better that somebody else has done this too, I'm sure the guys are much more helpful in Wellington, not that I will be doing that again! :oops:

I don't think I've passed anybody at the finish line!

I once had to run past the finish line to find the race director to tell them I had finished and to record my time as they had packed everything up and thought everybody had finished- but I hadn't!!! :shock:

Am I allowed to laugh at that? :shifty: It's pretty funny Vee! In a good way! 8)

Sometimes tipping the plates off is the quickest way of emptying the bar! Specially when your arms are so munted you can't be arsed etc :jive: :pfft:

22ks...geez aint you got a car? Dudess...thats twice round the bays :clap:

yeppy doodle dandy! Cars are for lazy people! I am booked in for the Auckland marathon on November 1st :shock: that is 42km.

I need some practise ie: training to be able to run that far hence the stupidly long runs!

daym how long does it take you to run that on a good day?

i cant even run up the block without having a cardiac arrest :-s (no lies)

i might try long distance running... first day run past the first block , then 2nd day same thing..... lol... and then maybe a week or two later i can run a second block..... and slowly but surely...i'll get to Mcdonalds :grin:

[runveerun]

daym how long does it take you to run that on a good day?

Bloody ages! :grin:

and of course the longer the run the longer the minutes per/km become and the need of toilet,food,water,sunscreen,painkillers becomes even bigger!!

Crappy-ola weather today so ditched the road run and went and spent the afternoon in Le Gym. The weather has since cheered up so * fingers crossed* it's all sunny tomorra!

Went did a 'body balance' class as my PT has been telling me I need to for months as I am a typical inflexible runner apparently!

So went and did all that which was nice and relaxing for a change.

Then double spin class :pale:

Somebody has gone and filled my legs up with concrete while I wasn't looking :pfft:
