    Friday, May 29: 33 mins easy
    5.5K @ 6:00/km; 3.4 mi @ 9:39/mi

    taper, taper, taper... makes your legs feel very sluggish...managed to avoid the hailstones on this one (hailstones, wtf?), caught up with LauraAc, who was run-muting home along the seafront and kept her company for a few minutes. Couldn't persuade her to come to Cork as my personal pacer, very selfish of her :rolleyes:. Left Laura and turned back into the wind, and promptly met Mrs Mc who is looking forward to the Women's Mini Cocktails on Monday :p.

    The weather is supposed to be sh!te on Monday.. that's an actual quote from Met Eireann, maybe I should have included some hailstone training today, but at least I know I've done enough bloody wind training!

    another easy couple of miles tomorrow I think and that's it...

    I see you ended up volunteering in the end today! Good to see you yesterday, I was lost in my own world and listening to my music - I hope you weren't hollering at me for long. Enjoy the trip to cork and the very best of luck.

    I think a hat would be best if weather as bad as reported for rain.
    Anna, have a great race. Positive, happy thoughts for the race on the joy when you cross the finish.

    Your a Donegal woman, toughen up, the wind in Cork is a mear zephyr compared to the Hills!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,936 ✭✭✭annapr


    Thanks everyone for the good wishes, we made it to the banks of the Lee anyway... registered in good time. Only mishap so far is that I managed to leave registration without a race number... luckily I noticed before it closed, and am only 5 mins away, so the very helpful people are sorting it out for me, but no number yet!

    Murph helpfully pointed out that I probably dropped it... I insist they never gave it to me... :p
