Do they tell you that club sessions will involve medicine ball work (minute squats, minute plank, minute sit-ups, .4 mile at 10k pace x3, then throw the ball around, then run with the ball, then more squats followed by uphill sprints x3)? No they do not
Do they tell you that this will destroy your 1000 mile challenge progress (only 2.5 miles tonight)? No, they do not
Bastards, they are, a shower of bastards.
Well if it's any consolation you made me laugh with this

Might take longer to complete the 1000 miles but the 2.5 painful miles that you did last night will benefit you more than an easy 5 mile run. Think of the quality!

Does 'quality' get you to 1,000 quicker? I thought that was the goal of the '1,000 mile challenge' or is it supposed to be the '500 quality mile challenge'?

It's actually the Dunshaughlin smackdown, and yes, quality miles will put you in your place

Oh, I will

But hey, if you're already conceding defeat and looking for a rematch, I'm entered in the marathon race series...

Is this going to be finalised with any financial/hosiery-related incentives?

Ordered last night (because I was ordering other stuff anyway and it was no extra shipping), hope he likes them small because I got the biggest size (size 5-8)
