ho hum
just prepared a fairly lengthy submission and then got called away to find the page had expired before my return...
I use the CIS gels Andy, I really hate the way they slither down your throat but like the way the energy kicks in about 10 minutes later and you don't need fluids with those. Bit easier to carry than a sports drink, I never feel comfortable carrying a bottle, Itried one of those fancy shaped ones that are supposed to slip over your hand, but I got the urge to throw that away after a coupl of miles.
Hope the calf niggle was a fleeting thing - didn't you have a calf problem a while a go?
Had good fun running last weekend, we were visiting my daughter in Camden - v.handy for Regent's Park and for Hampstead Heath, had great fun saying good morning to other joggers, the look of alarm that appeared on their faces had me LOL , they obviouolsy thought we were at best completly mad a nd at worst down right dangerous!! Its so long since I left my roots in the South that I had forgotten it was forbidden to speak to strangers...
Entered my local 10 k awhile a go, am now amased to find that 15,999 other people have entered too - wow! I know there is no chance of doing a decent pace in a mass event, but when you get to my age it is such bliss to know that there will be some hundreds of people finishing behind you for once, I shall be delighted if the number behind goes in to thousands - ahh it's the little things in life.
Pam, I have been reading you blog with interest, Good Luck in your new home.
Phew this is hard work !
