Chesty cough - second time in 2 months. Making sh1t of my marathon training. God I don't want to end up running the marathon aiming for a similar time to the last time. Too much work for that!!! Grrr and irritated.

Me too - twice in four months. Doctor says that when the immune system is low, the skin and the lungs are the first areas to get ill. So now I'm dosing up on the tonic and the echinacea, and hoping we get some dry weather for a change.

When you think you're recovered from illness, but a just over 3km run has you almost fainting in the supermarket at the end of it... :mad:

Also 2nd'ing drquirky's rant about Hasay/Salazar. Awful smell of bullshit off it all.

It's not even character building anymore! Law of diminishing returns.

Running too often in these crappy conditions is just depressing

It was almost like spring for my run at lunch time today:)

(Saying that it'll probably lash at my 6am & lunch time runs tomorrow)

No he started doing it himself, started at 18 stone. How bad.

so why the rant

ThisRegard · 25-02-2014 08:53PM

Yeah, first series. Sprinting off in your singlet and doing that time is hardly in the spirit of the event. Guys here were criticised for contemplating entering in case they took an entry from someone making an effort starting out.

ok, I know what you're saying but maybe it's a good thing as it can show current OTers what's possible as he started like they did.

I have to agree, if he started at 18 stone and can now run a 5 km in that time he deserves to show off!

Plenty of competitive races for that.

Fair enough if he was especially invited to run or something, buti t looked like there was at least 2 club runners in the top 3.

Sure let him off. We won't focus too much on him cause if everyone who did or watched the show did that they would have no one in or watching it next year and we can't have that

A thread with the title "what do you classify as a hill" getting more views in 2 days than a thread entitled "High jump hitting up for the world indoors" does in 6 weeks.? Seriously???

It's all about relevance. Most here will run up a hill, few here will do the high jump.

Better throw in a rant.

This f**king add was played every 15 minutes during the Winter Olympics (not an exaggeration!). There's 3 different types of ad all using this classic Italian song which has now been ruined for me irreparably. All this ad has done is make me hate McDonald's even more!

I'm so glad I watch very little TV anymore, got to love the internet for tv and movie content

I know the skies are blue, but an ice cream van just tootled up the road with its annoying jingle - really!!!
