Hehe. Good start! Has anyone looked at last years ones to see if they have achieved their declared resolutions...?! I think I failed on a few considering I have been injured again, whoops. Still, I have improved my drinking skills, which is obviously a top priority

2006   Entered two Sprint Tri's and withdrew from both due to injury
2007   Entered and completed Sprint Tri's and a couple of 10K's and no injuries
2008   Entered Olympic Tri and maybe a Half Marathon? Just need to keep injury free and a couple of new knees would be handy, along with new heart and lungs also wouldn't go amiss  cheese

In my best Victor Meldrew voice "I don't believe it!"

Last run of the year and I strain my calf on the last hill sprint  cussing

Then this morning was 3 miles to work and 7 miles this evening!

Steffan you must be joking!! 15 miles!! You're mad! (How much did you win?)
Karl C

sorry Stef, no witnesses - we still win !
mikey

Did See Ian arrive on bike 31st December

Unfortunately left before him

So didn't witness Cycle home on 1st January !!!

Would have been after 2 am - But probably before 3 am
Steffan

No Karl, I beg to differ! There were plenty of witnesses!
The policemen that stopped me to ask if I was ok, random cars going past beeping their horns and the garage attendant who sold me the best chocolate milkshake I've ever tasted (mars milk) at Toomeys in Laindon at about 4am!
Plus two of my mates who kept texting me to check I was still alive!
So there!

Stacey, the mate who dared me to do it has since brought me a bottle of Jack Daniels for my effort! My fluid of choice for the first few miles was quater of a bottle of the stuff! Never again!!!!

cheers
mikemoreton
