    So I was reading the wolf's log and he writes that you had his club up to your grass patch for a bit of a race and a BBQ last Thursday. I have to say as your nearest neighbour we are disgusted at your omission to invite us up! This has widened the already massive divisions between our clubs and will be used as ammunition when we go into races. We are already looking forward to the M35 championships in the 10 miler. Not only are you **** you are also a shower of $hitheads

    We had the invitation all ready to go - we were going to nail it to the door of your clubhouse - when you insulted our container :mad:

    This could have been Tallaght athletes enjoying a BBQ...

    75ish minutes, up to tymon, hills, and back. Back to the regular hill session (the regular session I haven't done in over a year?), 15 times from the tower to the top of the hill. Started by walking back all the way but it was taking too long, so went with walk/jog. Kept the effort controlled on the ups.

    That's them in 3rd place too.
    Imagine if they combined both groups, they'd be massive!!

    (we tell the kids not to run the park runs, but there are a load of adults who run them far too often)

    I know the comeback :-) but quantity has a quality all of its own! its great to see lots of people getting in to running and fitness, there's always a good crowd at training sessions. And the numbers mean there are people to organise fundraisers and races, drag in to juvenile coaching, paint containers etc, it isn't the same people doing everything

    Didnt see you dave. Probably cos I was up in the dublin mountains on my lsr, not jogging around the flat training grounds of THE south dublin club, thinking of what might have been.

    You training for another hilly marathon? I'm training for the Dublin marathon myself I think it is run mostly on the south side of Dublin and avoids the Dublin mountains totally! ;)

    By the way I thought you told me that you couldn't make a long run this morning. This is more of it. First you don't invite me to your BBQ and now you are blanking me for long runs. Bastards

    Platelet donation on Monday > no running

    Arrived at training yesterday and only one of the 400 gang was there, so I jogged up to the hill session with a couple of newbies. Arrived about a minute after the first group started their lap (its a one mile lap that goes up and over the same small hill three times from different angles) so charged off after them, trampling the slower groups along the way ;) Of course then I had a minute less to recover before the second lap, and I was pretty wrecked for the third and fourth laps, but a good session. Legs really felt it last night and this morning...

    I think you trampled everyone on the first rep - a yellow blur! Nice to see you back training with the group Ray.

    yeah, I could have run the 400s with him but he might as well be running them on his own - what was he going to do, give me a head start on each one :pac:

    Well if that isn't blatant elitism, I don't know what is. Nice example he's setting in the club. :rolleyes:
