Just 10k all up in total.
Friday. Another new home base for our Friday swim as the Ian Thorpe Pool got the nod today, only problem for me was that everyone forgot to tell all the slower swimmers in the team with NO MrAce, Julia, Enda, Angus or Mikey, in turn it left me the tough task to swim with Mermaid, Pete Walker, Champagne and one or two other quick guys, although Champ kept me company for the session. Set was 2 x 300, 4 x 200, 6 x 100s.
Felt terrible as i tried to hold on to Charlie for the first 300 as i stopped the clock on 4.50 and wasn't even sure i could do the remainder of the set at that stage. Worked the 200s better and finished the 100s fairly strong with the final 100 done in 1.30.
2.3ks all up
Tomorrow will try to get out and do a longish easy run as i have a big party on Saturday evening so best i get it done early as i don't fancy my chances come Sunday .
Big news of the week out of Blighty in the footy is that Fergie Retires from his managers post at Man Utd after 26 years. Its the end of an era there and although never a big fan his achievements over the time have been brilliant and we will never see the likes again and certainly wont see a manager in charge for that long at one club.
I must say its so refreshing to see stories of a man in his seventies in the news that doesn't involve child abuse after all the shenanigans going on over there with all the peados and perverts. Can't believe some of the names being linked with it all - people on the telly that i grew up with , Stuart Hall, Freddie Starr, Rolf Harris, and now bloody Kenny Barlow from Coronation Street have all been doing there best Jimmy Saville acts of indecency. It's getting crazy who's next up? Please tell me Noel Edmonds is a clean skin or else i will be upset. I'm getting really confused these days and I can no longer tell the difference between the New Year's Honours list and the sex offender's register. :)
Big Games this week in the 2nd last round of the season with Tom's Toon still not safe , although it does look like Wigan will go now after losing at home to Swansea in the week. Stoke will be in the premiership once more after 2 wins and a draw recently, and even Enda's Villa have done enough for survival.
This week is the F.A Cup between Man City and Wigan - Still can not believe they are playing the Final whilst the season is still going on. The F.A Cup is the showpiece event of the season and should be a stand alone game when all the other games are done
Timmy's Tip for the big game - Take Man City to win 2 - 0 , with Tevez getting on the score sheet.
BREAKING: In honour of Sir Alex Ferguson retiring, all Premier League clubs will play an additional 5 minutes of added time this weekend
