Farewell old friends. I'll miss you.

[Malcy]

Nah - you don't get rid of me that easily ... I'm going nowhere.

But my first pair of running shoes? The ones that saw me through the programme, and memorable runs in Australia, France, Belgium, Holland, Spain, Portugal, ... They hit the bin this afternoon. As I dropped them in, storm clouds gathered, the sky went dark, and a voice from Heaven said "Malcy. Malcy. Wouldst thou cast me aside like thine old shoes?"

God Almighty! No - just Mrs Malcy, glad to see the back of my holy shoes.

Holy. Get it?

[Oldgirl Graduate]

Hahaha God of Hell Fire you get worse instead of better. I hope you have broken in your new runners before you dared to cast aside your old faithfulls?

[ju-ju- Graduate]

I am lovin Mrs malcy :)..... and flippin heck your shoes need to be ashamed of themselves they have been all over....

[DavD Graduate]

Haha! Time to put your shiny new runners on then! ^^

Expect you'll be swanking in a new T-shirt from Sunday too!

[Malcy Graduate in reply to wilmacgh]

It's already on eBay!

Not really - but why didn't I think of that before? Take an XXXL size at the finish, and sell it to someone who wants the kudos without the hard work

Great pun Mal, I shall certainly be quoting you ;-p

[TJFlute]

I was worried for a split second, and thought you were leaving us.

I still own my first running shoes and love them to bits, although only walk in them now. Lots of memories.

Gotcha
