Fat bleeder update

Went for a run on Monday night. Ouchy. managed about 4k, but ached like a Thai Ladyboy on two for 1 Tuesday's at Madame Bovary's House of Pain straight afterwards.

anyway, I intend to keep running, aiming for thrice a week until race 1.

Thanks to those who sponsored me, and please note I shall not make any ill judged attempts to banter with Leeds fans, as the last thread descended into farce.

Thanks again

Don't push on too fast though...I'm 5 weeks into my training program and thought I could push on to to a 5 miles (run/jog/walk)...Did all my warm ups and started off with light jog and .all seemed pretty good until about 3 miles in and I suddenly pulled a calf muscle... I should have stuck to my original program and done it more gradually...now I'm sat on my rse for 2 weeks waiting for calf to repair, and will start pretty much back at square one.

Ah The "Bare" minimum Cas eh .. In Grims case I'm not so sure we'd appreciate seeing that .. I do just wonder what the law is on these 'taking your body out for a run' things ..

For instance could you troll round the circuit on a mobility scooter ..? Certainly make life easier .. Not quite the entering into the spirit ..?

O K on a Seriarse note ~ Jacko .. A Sensible regime of Stretch Up n Downs Pre n Post run is VITAL .. I even do a few last thing at night before getting into bed as The Calf Cramps that can be created are enough to make you Scream .. and I mean S C R E A M !!! Not that I want to be negative and put Grim off .. ..

grim..
the training is much harder than the real thing..if you can motivate yourself for the training the real run with the "target" in your head and the adrenaline and support is easier..
run at the same pace as much as you possibly can, you are not against the clock its the distance you have to make.. stopping or walking a bit can be fatal..
your body will do it, its your brain that can bollox you up...
Just remember what its for and most importantly, relax , you use a lot of energy if you tense up..
There were quite a few lads in the marathon who upped their personal best chasing Nell Mcandrew around the course, cant guarantee getting her to run just in front of you though!!!!!
"there is loads of pain without gain" (at first)...stick with it..

38 - The last ten K i did, I definitely got through the last 2k purely on the perve factor alone. Wanted to thank the two "peachy" lasses who had spurred me on, but thought I might get a slap....

ideal grim...

but i suggest you actually enter the race next time.. chasing lasses in shorts for 10k is "wrong"...or at least put some clothes on...

if you have run 10k before, you can do it again..

Apparently my "baton" should have been holstered...
