Saw L.L ( Lisa) out in the park running at one stage putting in a final burst for perhaps some awards come Thursday, told her that i think she has left her run a little late she did reply that maybe 'Underacheiver' was possible but i quickly told her that was already sewn up :)
With a quick break it was then into town for the 45 minute tempo session, massive crowd again despite the busy time of the year with all the regulars out for a trot. Started off very easy and was running with Billy Batt, Todd, and Champ working at 4.09 pace reaching the theatre company by half way. Quickened it up and was running just a tad under 4 min/ks coming by the Passenger Terminal and C.Q before the battery gave up the ghost on the GPS coming around Farm Cove, Saw Tucks and Pete Walker taking a short cut through the gardens coming out near the A.B.C Pool so just tucked in with them for the final 5 minutes home. Bloody tough again with the hills not to mention the swirling wind around but ended up making it back in plenty of time. Not very often i managed to run with Tucks on the final 5 minutes of ANY set over the years so was happy enough to hit the Stone Gates with him on this occasion (don't need to mention the fact he run a 60k Kepler Race about a week ago in N.Z).
Did say that i would put the nominations up for the HuRTS awards but think i will hold them over till tomorrow as Mikey was getting a little worried that i may be having a strong influence on the voters in his quest for Under Achiever trophy. I think all votes are now in and counted so it wont matter but just to be sure.....
Received yet more material from readers,(you'll have to stop sending all this Flakey, the boys are getting upset), this time its a 'Guess Who' again. This photo was taking many years ago and can you guess who the HuRTS member is from years gone by. We are looking for the person in the 'Bonny Hat at the front, A big clue is the gender of the person is MALE ( I know i struggled to tell at first) :)
First person with the correct answer will get a free beer on Thursday evening.
What a weekend of football from the English Premier this week, the Manchester Derby game just doesn't get any better, with Utd coming away with a 2-3 win thanks to yet another injury time goal. The game had everything and its no wonder its the best league in the world after watching matches like that. My team Stoke are still going strong, with 3 wins out the past 4, as is Slim Sammy Agnew's C.Palace unfortunately the same can't be said about Master Sweeneys Arsenal, Tom's Newcastle, Enda's Villa, and we wont even bother with Skippy Heyden's Q.P.R :)
Did find these couple of photos funny though also from the weekend.
cheers
Kanser?
