Hope to do 60 miles plus, Im one of Hodgeys' old farts.

Longest I've ever run is 13.1 miles so 15 would kill me!

I'm looking to do about 8-10 miles(ish) on Sun a.m. if anyone is interested. About 8-8.5 min/mile pace and no quicker!

I'm a new member at Northbrook, I joined just before Xmas so this is a great way to find people to train with (I hope).

JSW - no idea what your name is as I haven't been down the club since the Godiva HM :oops:

I am VERY interested in 10miles at 8min pace this Sunday though. I've got a Garmin so I can guarantee we won't be going any quicker than that pace.
Are you going to be there this Sunday morning at 10?

JSW, 8- 10 miles would suit me great, as long as it's closer to 8.30min/mile pace than 8 !

starts planning solo 15 miles run. *sob* :cry:

James, that pace sounds good to me also, after killing myself on level 2 a couple of Wednesdays ago I need to get going sensibly again. 10am at the club sounds good, will the normal changing rooms be open as on a Wed?

Hodgey, the J in JSW stands for John, I joined the club mid December after getting hooked training for the Godiva which I ran for charity. Will shout 'whos hodgey' in the changing rooms on Sunday if you like?

re training runs: don't forget the old gits who turn up every sunday morning 11am for a very sensible 5 mile run and a sociable drink afterwards (pari passu) :twisted:

to save any embarassment, here's what I look like:

a skinny, tall, bald headed muppet! :lol:

Mind you, if the weather looks mega icy, rainy or there's loads of snow about I won't be there :oops:

I believe the term "fair weather runner" can be fairly aimed at me......

you've prolly thought about it already - but why don't you swap moblie nos using the messaging system on here then you can find out if someone can't make it on sunday.... just a thought :wink:

FAR too sensible an idea :lol:

I'll be there at just before 10 unless the conditions are too foul. Much easier :wink:

JSW · by **JSW** on Sat Feb 02, 2008 4:28 pm

Ok, will be there at just before 10am for a 'steady' 10 miler. Have also attached a photograph, hope it is one of me and not one of a car!
