Interesting article, thanks Delia. So that's why I can't give it up!

Yes but it's very serious and competitive -- people outdoing each others' personal bests. No room for middle-of-the-roaders like me :-)

Or me. I haven't a competitive bone in my body! PB still means Peanut Butter to me, even though I am a totally committed, fully paid-up runner these days! :-o

Pleased to hear your B210k is going well, Delia - mine has gone a bit onto the back burner as I've started a new job and some days have only time to do....my favourite run, Speed! I think I'm kind of on B210k W3R2 but who knows?

That's exactly where I am Soozz. This morning I just ran 30 minutes to the Kinks and the Hollies and Petula Clark with a bit of One Direction -- heaven!

Friday I shall attempt B210k W3R2 -- but Speed remains my favourite :-p

ooohhhh, I fancy doing one of these, it looks fun! I enjoyed the first Race for Life twilight run last October, that was a real party atmosphere afterwards, I can see how something like this would be great.

I don't mind being at the back, either, who cares if I'm slow. If anyone comments I will remind them that it is only by comparison to my slowness that they can look fast ;-)
