Just run 1 lap of Donadea. Sorted. Throw in the RER calculator and sub 12 is a virtual guarantee.

Seriously, you won't get much faster than Jingle Bells. I'm hoping to whip myself in to close to sub 16 shape by then as well, so it would be good to have a partner in crime on the day.

No way man, it can't be that simple

It's the TRR system. It's one step up from fit4life. I call it #TRR4Life. It's so simplistic it should be appearing soon in the Irish runner and Fit magazine.

That was the obvious target race but I may be heading to Waterford to run a half marathon that day. Just waiting on Gavlor to get back to me whether he can put myself and 5 other Tallaght lads up for the weekend.

There are plenty of other 5ks on in December so hopefully will do the business at one of those

The princess is back from her NYC shopping trip that day so all the rooms will be taken up with maceys bags, no way will she allow half the knacker cast from love/hate into the house!!


Edit: the tower hotel have some decent rates. Ramada viking hotel is very near start/finish but is 3 or 4 miles outside town. I doubt your posse will be able to make it that far into the sticks at 2am

Most of us take size 10/11 in a shoe and we obviously love burberry chav, so can you tell her to buy plenty! We'll be out to rob your gaf, so she may as well buy us something we will actually wear

Cheers, yeah we have a couple of hotels sorted and are all centrally located.

Just to confirm, I am not closing my account. However the wind may change direction or a butterfly in China might fart and I may reconsider

Monday: 10 miles @ 7 minute pace. Mostly on grass. Legs moving nicely and have decided I need to make an active effort to run on grass more. So much kinder on the legs and joints. Onwards and upwards!

The reveal

My name is Dave

The last 5 years I've posted here as theroadrunner, TRR and currently TRR_the_turd. During that time I've given off the impression that I train sensibly while still finding small gains year on year. Maybe I even undertrain relative to some other people.

I've also given the impression that I am a man of the people. Women want to be with me and men want to be me! A good looking bastard basically.

Well ladies and gents ............. It's all true

Keep her lit
Dave

Gavlor

Hi David,

I am just informing you that I have reported that post due to the blatant lies. Your constant manipulation of innocent boardsies has to stop and someone needs to call you to account on it.

You're an ugly bastard and on behalf of the other good looking boardsies (you know who you are) I would ask that you refrain from such ludicrous posting in future.

Yours in sport,

Gavlor

tunguska

Yes as one who's extremely attractive myself, I have also reported your post on the grounds of blatant lies........
Still can't believe all that Tomfoolery from yesterday. To fabricate that entire log and then try to cover up lies with more bizarreness........ He probably should be pitied more than anything, he's obviously fairly disturbed.

RacoonQueen

Still very confused about all this...

There's one way to solve this Dave - post a picture with a poll & we'll decide

You have a point in one sense but in reality he gathered people around him who believed him and defended him to the last. He then bows out and leaves them hanging - can't condone this type of messing with people's heads - it's a disgrace. Especially in circumstances like this when people are posting in isolation and he has no means of knowing how something like this could be affecting them.

I think he was a Walter Mitty type character who was looking for attention/worship. His bs got called out, he panicked, created a bizarre cover story to explain everything, and then did a legger. That's the way it looks to me anyway, he'll probably find some other forum somewhere and repeat the pattern, just like an internet Catfish.

Nobody's left hanging, believe me, and nobody's affected. But thanks for the concern if I was included in what you said! The others are all ok too.
Let's all just get back to running!! Or tapering!!! Hope you feel better soon!

Tuesday: 6 miles @ 7.11 pace. Legs feeling absolutely great. Wanted to do more but I've decided to keep my mileage below 60 miles a week until January. I also intend to take an very easy day after a day of longer miles or a hard session. Did a good portion of this on grass. Body feels great at the moment. First time in about 10 months where I can go to bed and not wake up with pain if I move etc.

Wednesday: 8 miles with pyramid. reps were 1-2-3-3-5-3-3-2-1 minutes with 1 minute jog recovery. This was nearly completely on grass. Plenty of rain recently so ground was heavy going. Did the last 2 on the footpath just to get a bit of speed into the legs. Really hammered these two. I'm loving this session at the moment. I don't bother tracking paces and just run off effort. I mentioned after the novice that I was missing a couple of gears. Well I think I've found one of them and will look at doing some short sharp reps in a couple of weeks to reintroduce some 5k speed.

Have you any target time in mind for the WAC half or will you use it as a training run?

The course is fair, decent climb after the first mile but it's not too bad after that. Route changed slightly to take out some of the sharp twists and turns

Thanks for that. I won't be doing any specific half marathon training but I'll run it as hard as I can off the back of 5k/10k/xc training. Just want to be in half decent shape coming into the new year. I'll definitely pick a time in the lead up but at this moment I've no idea what that will be.

Are you running it yourself?

Also what time will your house be empty at, we need to timetable your house burglary into our schedule for the day

Haha, I'm not sure what time she's jetting in with my bounty of oversized clothes from woodbury common but I'm guessing I'll have to collect her at the airport on the 6th so I'm unlikely to be running the half. I'll let you know for def later on.

You wouldn't mind fixing the handle on the double doors in the hallway while you're looting, 18 months have passed and it's still hanging off

Thursday: 7 miles at 7.05 pace. Nothing really to report apart from the loss of another two nipples. Have to get some bodyglide or sex lube. Maybe even both!

Friday: 12 miles @ 7.10 pace. Early run along the canal. Legs feeling great again. Did a couple to start with on my own and they were way too fast so was happy to have some company to keep me in line. Lost 2 nipples yesterday and suffered major chafing on my legs today. Maybe I need to lose a few lbs and get some sexlube godyglide!

Is that a nipple I see there ? Maybe you could do with losing a few pounds all right ? By the way, would have hated to see it before you photoshopped it :P

Funny how the internet works - had a completely different picture of you in my head !

FFS did you ask meno if you could use his picture. That's not very cool man, passing yourself as another boardsie is out of order.
