Midweek Rare Run with the Boys.

Wednesday.

Went back into town for a rare midweek run with the boys today, only a small crew but some of the big guns and top hierarchy, Clarkey, Chairman Tommy H, Mikey and Russell ‘Chopstick’ were out and  made the nice social run out to Centennial Park (of all places).

Good chat and banter along the way with poor Barts often the talk of the town and  how Tucks has cracked the poor guy, and that he’s not been seen since City to Surf? Same thing was said about Enda, but more on that fellow later.

Had a good conversation with Clarkey about his triathlon days, Knew he was pretty strong especially on the bike and we’ve all seen what he’s capable of running, but then starts to tell me he has completed Olympic Tri distances in a time of 1hr:47 in the past…. Smoking, that would win most tri’s within Australia I reckon, certainly got some talent that lad.

Legs certainly felt a little heavier after yesterday’s tough session and was grateful the pace was kept a little slower then I think the guys would normally do. I stuffed up with my watch stopping it at lights and forgetting to switch back on at times, although Mikey told me getting back to the base of the Domain that we had done 15ks in 4. 40 pace.

Again, more ks in the bag and now need to back up tomorrow for another session with the boys 3 x 2ks reps down around Hickson Road.

Well if poor Barts has gone undercover, Our Irishman Enda has headed overseas to China to get yet another stash of dodgy drugs to halt his decline and latest flu symptoms.  It seems to me to basically be a boys ‘ Jolly’ as he is living it up over there, although the latest photo sent in to me was slightly disturbing? He said the latest drugs are pretty good and he has NO side effects although I’m not so sure. Check it out.

Didn’t see the Hardmen out this morning around the park, although I did come across a few surprise faces for a Wednesday morning, Saw Pommy Paul Birchy running around, not sure who he was with – couldn’t make out if it was Doctor Skins or his NEW hairdresser mate Rupert?

Also saw HuRTS newly crowned lady, the ever impressive Renee flying around, Jeez, you can tell she’s hit the top now as she didn’t even give me a ‘hello’ …Snubbed, J

And finally saw C.T with a NEW running buddy……………… a DOG ? what’s that about ?

Cheers
