sparkysmum Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Injured again and feeling flu-y I didn't see a rock under the grass last Sunday and I went over on my ankle I was ok at the time but it's sore now. Added to this I'm feeling sore all over. Never been ill in my life but just want to cry now Baking for Ant's chemistry class just now, so feeling a bit cheerier.

sparkysmum Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Hi, no you're not alone At least I don't think so Ankle is much improved, calf likewise but pelvis still feels grim. Added to that one of the kids has a vile sore throat . Can't believe all this. Unless something gets worse, we are leaving tomorrow morning for Newcastle & doing all the pasta party/fitness show stuff. I will pm you my contact details Cathy,so we can get together. Really hoping all these illness things go away, we're not used to this Speak soon, Alli x Vicki, there's still room in the car.....................

Couperwife Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 im hoping to complete in less than 3 hours - that was my last time, i know im not the fastest, in fact im slower than british rail but I do try i know someone who did a half marathon and got injured and walked most of the way round - and finished in 2 hours 15 mins I will be happy to slow down with people cathy x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 This will be my 6th or is it 7th G. N. R. Finishing times have been 2 hrs 20 ish to 2 hrs 38mins. Think it will be much slower this year.I'm not good at running with other peeps( can't breathe, talk and run at the same time) but it would be lovely to run to the tyne bridge with you, then you could steam ahead We could meet up at the charity village at the end. Speak soon. Alli x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkysmum Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 We're just back. 2hrs 43mins. Slowest year so far but great fun. Just took my time & enjoyed it all:!: Stayed for the White Van Man at the end................Brilliant I love him Met the lovely Couperwife but we didn't run together as my lungs don't permit chatting & running. Can only do one or the other Next year : will be half a stone lighter , will train harder, will be faster ..........well maybe Alli x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 Well done, Alli . I was really worried you wouldn't be well enough, I'm so glad you managed it . Next year, I too will be half a stone lighter, will have trained harder and will run faster ... well maybe . Congratulations to both of you .

sparkysmum Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Vicki, your Loch Leven time was awesome You can't be faster , you would disappear out of sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 Thank you, but bear in mind that there's absolutely nothing to distract you while running round Loch Leven. I bet there's so much to look at and listen to at the G.N.R. that you couldn't run all out if you tried . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
