  1. First run for a week tonight as I've had a nasty cold. 6 slow miles were far harder than they should be. Urgh.
  2. Was at Crathes castle yesterday making use of the membership Lesley won last year. twitter.com/Dawdles/status…
  3. @Hamster1207 Sounds like one hell of a rollout! Hope your first day goes well. :)
  4. @Hamster1207 Madrid?! I'm intrigued, what do you do? That's quite a commute!
  5. @medalslut That's damn good going for such epic weather. Well done. :)
  6. @medalslut Slothful desk bound cake stuffing engineer reporting in... I was 5.5st chunkier. I call it a draw! :)
  7. @medalslut Of course! It'll be going in my manly scrap book with all the others. A book of reasons why I shouldn't get fat again. :)
  8. @medalslut Fyvie 5k, Garioch 10k, Balmoral 10k, perhaps others, times all fine. Maybe could't afford goody bags after reprinting bibs. ;)
  9. @medalslut Don't get me started about goody bags. Free sugary food at the end is the best thing ever! :D
  10. @medalslut Sent them an email, hopefully it's something they can figure out. Normally their results are spot on. :)
  11. @medalslut My garmin result: connect.garmin.com/activity/18003… I'm pretty pro at starting/stopping on the line, normally +/-1s.
  12. @medalslut I shouldn't moan, but it's an expensive race so you'd hope for an accurate time. *shakes tight fist*
  13. @medalslut Sounds similarl to me. Noticed @rhinomittens time is out by ~90s. Hmmm!
  14. @rhinomittens Well done on the PB :)
  15. @medalslut Sorry, must have missed you. I measured 47:29 (6.26 miles), website says 47:45, PB is 47:39. PB thieves! How far out was yours?
  16. @medalslut Mine is about 17s off. Hmmmm!
  17. @lauradawson23 Thank you :)
  18. @medalslut Got my new one today, but girlfriend is still waiting for hers. I'm going to run with the original. :D
  19. @medalslut Sure. Never looked when it arrived, but someone said at parkrun there was a cock up. Gf has a monged one too. :)
