24 hours from nowhere

Working class heroes

A long, long time hurling from ditch so now is the time to get the old finger out and start a training log.
Running about 4 years.
Don't race but this will change. Not sure what form this will take but it's a toss up between the 110 hurdles or a 72 hr ultra, we'll see.
No idea how fast I am and don't really care, yet.
Run most days, sometimes 30mins sometimes 3 hrs. Sometimes on the road sometimes in a field sometimes up a mountain sometimes on a beach sometimes on a cinder track, anywhere really.
Let the games begin.

Rested today......

Intresting targets. Good luck with them.
If u run in races your times will be in the results once u finish

Got out this morning for a quickie. About 30 minutes talking pace. Kept to the leafy trails with about ten minutes on grass. I'm guessing about 5k.
Must get me some technology.

Also need to start thinking about a goal. I like jumping over those barriers at wood/forest entry points so the steeple chase might be an option.....

A very pleasant trot around a city centre park today. Loads knocking around chomping on their sushi and stuff. Might try it out some day. Looked nice.
Anyway had a very slight twinge in the knee. Thought it was an old cricket injury flaring up at first, just think it was the body waking up. Got in about 40 mins.

I've decided to give the long stuff a go. I'll probably make an arse of it but sure if you're not in.......

Working class heroes

Seen as I'm going to be doing the long stuff I might as well do it right.
Going to give that old intermittent fasting a go. Going with the 16/8 version as it suits my hectic lifestyle. Got up this morning and binned the sugar puffs and frosties, they really are grrrrrrrreeeat!
Just back from another 40 minute trot and I'm about to tuck into a chicken, lettuce, olive and Semi-dried tomato fruit sambo. Pesto in lieu of butter.
Jaysus I'm starvin'

Working class heroes

I am human,
I am a product of millions
and millions of development and
research to determine what
abilities and functions are needed
to be the strongest of the fittest
I breath
I eat
I think
I feel
I dream that there is more to life
than what I know
I hope
I am human
I am born with nothing but
develop a cocktail of love
and hate and grudges and
desire with the power to
destroy life itself
I am human
Made to be broken, made to
last.

This old fasting lark is cracking me up.

Another 40 minutes fooling around today.

Working class heroes do not eat sushi. They detest bourgeois decadence.

Working class heroes

@TBF. You see that's what they want you too think. Why can't we eat sushi? Let's break free from these culinary shackles!

Working class heroes

What if
Three working men from a far away land
Brought gifts for The babies hand
Ketchup, mayonnaise and salad cream all bland
The new holy trinity?
No, just dips for the damned.

An hour on the trails this morning along the river big.

Working class heroes

felt good after this mornings trot so headed out this evening for a sneaky 35 min jog.

I met a girl called Tiara Venial Dun she was a mixed up hypochondriac.

Lovey little trail run this morning

About 30 miles for the week. I'll aim for about 40 next week.

Working class heroes

A glorious 45 minutes around sushi park today. I feel drawn to this place, almost like I've been there before.

Said hello to Oscar. He's like a big turd with all the flies snap snapping away.

Covered about 5 1/2 miles, I think.

Surely Tara Valid Ennui would be a much more convincing anagram, in the 'all actual words' stakes.

Working class heroes

Yes it surely would Dave.

But a lass named Tara broke my heart once
Never found out why
I kept digging and digging and digging and digging
But it only made me cry.

So I'll go with mine if you don't mined humouring me.

New watch today, fits snugly on the wrist. Not used to wearing a timepiece on the wrist as I'm more a pocket watch kinda chap, old boy...

Wasn't going to head out but was eager to try out the watch so went out for a quickie.

3.2 miles @ 8:10 pace. Around the dark woods. May buy a head torch now. Fcuk sake, who said running was a cheap pastime.

Happy birthday Oscar.

A wonderful 6.3 miles today. Felt alive, unlike Bob. Happy birthday duuuuuuuude.

The old 16/8 diet is going well, don't think I'll have any bother mastering it.
Anyway breakfast is for whimps:cool:.

Working class heroes

Decided to try out the new head torch so hit the Mountains.

Came face to face with a deer, I said "you talkin' to me?"
He told me to fcuk off back to Nam and find Christopher Walkin

Didn't have that second mushroom.

About 5.3 tough miles.

davedanon

Ah, they just need to inject them with more steroids or heroin or whatever, so they'll last longer, and then they can export them to Europe.

Ah god be with the days I used to be up at the crack of dawn with me M&S plastic bag picking me own. Happy days!

Working class heroes

Bonus run today. 6.3 miles on the river big.

Sad day today. We say goodbye to a sporting legend. Many a time I watched him grace the sod and many a time, during his retirement, I had the pleasure of his company.



Bye bye my old friend, bye bye Moscow Flyer.

7.1 miles in the muck this morning. Bit of a slog but very enjoyable. Might get back out this evening, don't worry I'll let yis all know if I do.

Working class heroes

Things starting to fall nicely into place. Beware all I'm coming to get yis!
