Tom Roper
I dropped Tom a line on his site to say 'hello' and invite him over to RC for a visit. It's weird - he's also a veteran of the Jog Shop Jog (race proper) and is planning to do it this October. He's in for the Seaford Half so provided I get in I hope to see him there.
Yes SP, his Brighton Half time was 1:43 - pretty decent and a fair bit faster than mine, so he could be the ideal person for me to run with at Seaford to go for a PB. It's past time I managed sub 1:50, that's for sure.
Thanks for the 'phone call at 3 am. I did manage to get back to sleep, but failed in my quest to get out for a couple of miles near LAX (looking for a Mugger Free Zone in Inglewood proved an exercise in futility). I've moved on to San Diego now and am staying with a mate on the ede of a golf course, so hoping for a beautful 4 miler in the early hours before flying home.
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
