Sweder Wrote:I read what you posted on RW and the response, which was pretty poor. The inference that you were 'walking' the 10k was insulting. One of our regular contributors here deploys a walk/ run strategy to great effect, finishing way up the field in many of her races. 1:30 is not an outrageous imposition for marshals at a 10k. The long and short of it is if there's a cut-off then publish it ahead of time so everyone knows how the land lies; don't wait until someone is obviously struggling and start hassling them about getting a move-on or being left high and dry (or as is more likely, high and soaked).

Blow that rotten race off next year and join us for the Dorney Dash (last recorded finisher 1:29:41, Cynthia Dee from Henfield Joggers). I'm not sure Andy's planning on splashing the bubbly after every event, but you'll be made most welcome all the same.

Yep, Suzie from Canada run-walks, and has beaten me handosmely at both Almeria Half Marathons we've done together.

Talking of which, come to Almeria (Spain) with us at the end of January. you know it makes sense. Very cheap weekend, and a fantastic group of hunky guys to hang out with.

Er, but I think my wife is coming this time... Eek

Big Grin It's OK. I'm 50,and actually still quite like the old gal.
