You too! I may be away but if not I’ll be there. My brother will also run. You can’t miss him looks like EDF 6’ 4” skinhead but can’t run for toffee

Nope, nothing in common whatsoever but could be their poster boy
Shall we tell him he's got his F'n' L mixed up?

Think I need to clarify he’s not a skinhead by choice. His brother got the hairy genes but not the brains
Like me and my brother in reverse!
Have you heard of the English Disco Lovers? The penny must drop soon!

Ok it’s league. Can’t believe that’s taken so long for the penny to drop( nice pun Knocky). Either way he can’t run and certainly can’t dance
I can't resist my inner pedantry and this is huge for a pedant. EDL

Can't wait to meet your brother! You can get your revenge at Bevendean.

Well if this is Sunday evening pedantry corner, the Watt is the unit of power not energy I think Joule find.

I went out for my 90 minute steady run this evening, 10.6 miles in 8:27 per mile average pace.
For some reason today I've not felt right at all, the plan was to drag myself out of bed for 6am to meet up with [MENTION=18183]big nuts[/MENTION] but instead I stayed in bed until about 11 and then the day got away from me. I didn't feel overly strong out on the run at any point, maybe that was because Snakey Hill was a large part of the warm up but it's also probably due in part to the darkness. We'll see what tomorrow's 6 laps of The Level bring. It's about 800 metres around the perimeter so I should be thumping around in no more than 3 minutes per lap.

Got the parkrun pacing bang on this week and got the infamous Lucy a sub-22 time. Knocky well back but [MENTION=3736]Mr Banana[/MENTION] took the NSC Hove Park honours, I think. Followed it up yesterday with a pre-Beachy Head 14.3-mile jaunt up hills and over the SDW.
Talking of races who's at Bright10 on Sunday?

I'll be doing the Bright10 if one of the numerous people I know pull up with any sort of injury, otherwise I won't be involved.
My laps of The Level at lunch were something close to catastrophic. I was only able to run an average of 4:10ish per KM, but it wasn't even the full KM! The laps of the level starting at the grooves for the cycle lane at each end closes to St Peters Church is 730 metres. I'm disappointed with the lack of pace but I was feeling very heavy legged from the morning cycle commute onwards really. Movement is a struggle today after saturday's double hard run session and into that wind! Last night's 10 miles probably did me no favours, starring both Snakey Hill and that part of Old Shoreham Road from the viaduct up to Bhasvic.
