Too Hot!

Mothers expect you to wear some daft things but I am not going to wear
sanitary towels, my wife would not approve..

I don't think sanitary towels would be a good idea in hot weather.
They would contribute to the chafing and feeling of "unfreshness".
Especially if they were the cheapo own-brand ones.

I can't believe I'm typing this.

5k run is on Wednesday. Hopefully I shall be able to walk/run without
grimacing by then!

5k run, eh? Impressive! Where is it?

Victoria Park, Southport.

! When is it? Is it run by Southport Waterlook AC? (My running
club...) I'll come along and give you a yell :-)

Quoted message said:

I'm dreading it.

Don't dread it. The great thing about running is that if it gets too
much one can always slow down and walk :-) That's how I've always
approached it, anyway.

Quoted message said:

I shall try to do 3 or 4k
tomorrow, as a practice, but I shall be saving the full distance until
the real thing and hoping the "big event atmosphere" will pull me
through.

I'm sure it will!

So when is it?

Wednesday night. 7:30 start. I think it's being organised by Sefton
Council in association with some Health organisation. I read all
about it this morning but have forgotten already.

Yes, I suppose so. I don't think it is billed as a "run". Many
people will be intending to walk right from the start.

Quoted message said:

I went out for a run this evening. I was only intending to do a mile
just to check that my legs were OK after my 3 Peaks at the weekend.
Unfortunately I was getting painful twinges in my right knee so I took
it very very gently. I shall wear an elastic bandage tomorrow and
walk at the first sign of knee pain. I can probably walk faster than
some of the competitors can run!

Look out for number 165 in a Sefton Council T-shirt. (I was quite
happy to get the number 165 as that is the number of the bus that
takes me to the pub on a Saturday night. Destiny!)

<g> Have you tried Tesco's own brand? Comfy, no wings (I hate wings)
and absorbant. Oh, and cheap.

"No, I'm happy with my current brand, thank you. Now go away before I
call the police"

And...? If you need some sort of padding, can you honestly think of
anything better? They're also very useful in a first aid kit. You
need a pad to put over a severe gash? Guess what's the best thing you
could carry?

Pardon?? Would you care to rephrase that?

Sorry, J. I got trapped at work, and missed it. I did try, but there
was a limit to how fast I could get there on my bike. I hope it went
well? I think it must have been the Corporate Cup. Last year I was
marshalling. Doesn't seem 12 months ago...

Best wishes,

Never thought I would do this, but postponed a walk on Sunday in the
considered opinion that it was TOO BLOODY HOT!
Heat rash in tender area probably influenced decision, any miracle cures
appreciated, dusting with talc helps until it rubs away.

Vasoline. I always take it with me to hot climes.

That's alright. I did look out for you but reckoned you must've been
held up.

Yes it was the Corporate Cup.

I completed the 5km in 33 minutes 36 seconds and <drum roll> I ran all
the way!

I am soooooo chuffed with myself! I am now about to eat pizza and
drink beer.

Quite right too. No point working up an appetite and a thirst if you
don't take appropriate action afterwards, is there ;-)

Thank you!

I've just checked the results online and my team came 30th out of 112
teams. I was worried that the timekeepers would need a calendar for
my result!

Gosh, I do feel a bit achy now. I think I've done this month's
physical exercise now. Nothing more till August!

The whole point of the excercise is the reward, istm!

That's the spirit! I hope you're not too stiff tomorrow (generally
worst on the second day...)
