Berlin News and Early Predictions.

No training of anything since last Thursdays 400 reps as I was just to sore and broken basically and after talking to my physio Nick it was decided I back right off and rest up more if its to ever improve any.
So basically nothing to write home about although the Berlin Boys did get together for a few bevies last Thursday evening to discuss what’s to be done before we go in regards, singlets, lederhosen etc...
Once the 10th schooner was consumed all talk then got serious as times and race predictions for all runners were cast. Everyone gave a time for each runner then in some 'Pythagoras' way we come up with a solution more alike to e=mc2?
Anyway it appears as if the 'Chairman Tommy H will be running the fastest time of the day with a sub 2.30 closely followed by Barts and C.T. Can't believe my mate Tucks can't even get a spot on the podium? That's sure to fire the Welsh Dragon up when he sees that.
Nobody really fancies my chances (not hard to see why), although on the plus side it does mean I am getting over 9 minutes start on Enda.
Got my first 2 bets of the campaign as well one with C.T and the other with J-Fen, who after a little deliberation with Tom agreed to give me a 13 minute start (loser gets the first TWO steins once we get to Munich)

Good turnout for the night with Bartles, Tom, Rene 'Allo Allo', MaccaMcClarnon, Warrior Charlie, Enda C.T, and J-Fen all out. A few injury concerns though in the ranks with Kanser struggling, Slim Sammy Agnew still having issues with his foot, "Allo Allo's hamstring restricting his training, as well as Macca's old joints giving him grief.
Hopefully all will be cleared within the next 4 weeks or so - then we can all focus on getting a solid 12 weeks in enabling everyone to hit the start line in peak form?

Biggest talking point of the evening though was Tommy H's TIE he had on - What a shocker! Looked like he dug it out from his old Uni days back in the 80s. I've never seen anything like it, It was like a piece of carpet he'd cut up from his living room and actually had fur on it.
...... And don’t even get my started on Rene's Hand Bag :)

Berlin Boys, Warrior Charlie and Tom.


J-Fen, MaccaMcClarnon and HuRTS #1 Bartles.


Boys predicted times - on the right is the finishing order - Notice Tucks down in 4th.....Surely not?


And "Allo Allo' leaving with his handbag that contains the important above document with all the times in


The 'Tie' , what was he thinking?


And Finally, Enda got there late so didn't get any snaps of him, but don't worry i didn't forget about him and his fans.


Berlin Boy Enda, I'm sure there's still someone who has not seen the photo :)

Cheers
