Many thanks.
Just passed myself achilles fit for Wednesday. Will be very unfit otherwise. Expecting a lot of redness, sweat, huffing and puffing and sickness in the belly. That's how I am now after a 2.5 mile run and a total mileage of under 10 miles in 4 weeks.

That makes me feel rather better about having not run all of the 10 miles I put in this lunch time! Hope your achilles holds out for you.
I was aiming at 3 miles but aborted mission. Don't want to overdo it!
Got a 5K race in 12 days not sure how to prepare myself.
Congrats to the SBs/PBs from the weekend.
Another table update required for me, with a new PB in the bag from the Lululemon Toronto Waterfront 10k on Saturday.
It was a piss-poor week of preparation, as I was out every night and consumed a fair amount of booze. Plus I spent Friday taking some family on a trip to Niagara, doing a lot of walking and eating! However, I haven't raced a 10k for about 18 months and my natural speed has improved a lot since then, so I was still confident I'd get the PB.
I came home in 38:04, which I'm pleased about although I'd liked to have ducked under 38. It's also the first time I've ever had a completely even split, 19:02 for the first 5k and 19:02 for the last 5k with the first and last km being my fastest! I was 5th in my AG, which is now the fourth time I've been 4th or 5th. I need to find a less competitive race!

So, now the question is do I want to lead team Jahanbakhsh or team Murray?!
Your team Jahanbakhsh. I'm in [MENTION=3736]Mr Banana[/MENTION] 's Murray team and [MENTION=18183]big nuts[/MENTION] is A.Blank.
More importantly, do we have a post race pub we are all agreed on?
We could do the ‘hawk. There’s a pub just above on the road to Lidl. If no good we can head round the back of Sussex Square?
Marina may get more of us having a quick half??
Spoilt for choice.
The Bristol Bar is pretty good and just above where we will be running.
Spoons might be best to maximise attendance though. Let’s see what others think.

Yeah that'd be good. I ain't got long but would happily buy everyone a pint
