eb, sorry about your buddy's injury. I'm sure you'll do just fine with GG, like you say, she's been training and looking forward to it so she'll get you round. Which marathon is it that you're doing?
Nut, remind us nearer the time so we can place a bet on you for the Abbey Dash. ;-) I hope you don't have to go to the physios much longer.
MM, have a great holiday, where are you jetting off to this year? I remember being at the airport on the same day as you last year. :) I'm away at the end of the month this time.

That sounds lovely MM - the pampering that is, the smelly running shoes not so much!!

I'm just back from a 4 mile plod - bit disappointed that it took just over an hour, was hoping to get back within the hour, but it gives me a target to beat!! That's a total of 5.8 miles towards my 1/2 mara in a week challenge! Just 7.3 to get done by end of Sunday :-)

That was a good run kwala, consistency is the key. :)

I'm off to Cyprus. After I'd booked my friend said "shall we go for 10 days?" Grrr - that would have been much better but too late by then. :-p

Happy holidays MM and Alpen!

Mr Lemon's daughter is currently on holiday in Cuba, her scheduled flight home tonight is still due to go, we will be collecting her from airport tomorrow and will be glad once she out of the path of the big storms battering the Caribbean at the moment...
