There are no words... 
Happy running y'all!
UPDATE: You can now add the London Zoo Stampede 10K to this - 14 Sep (new photo to prove it!)... Training run for the 21 Sep... Couldn't turn down running through the Zoo before it opens past the animals now could I? And it's another medal...
Great picture, I think that list might get longer some how!!
zsl.org/zsl-london-zoo/what...
I am sorely tempted but it's a week before the Richmond Race... let's not get completely loopy!
Thats a good one!! I would have to vote yes for that - its a zoo - in my head it will be all nice and peaceful all the animals will be having their breakfast watching you run past -very unique
Note my update above... fat lot of good you lot are...
Maybe Mrs Aussie will be interested?
Mr Aussie - you appear to be shrinking dramatically. Soon all that will be left is the grin, like the Cheshire Cat, and a couple of leg muscles!
Ha ha Use it , I like it 
Well Mr Aussie, you have definitely been bitten by the bug . Actually , it would be very interesting if you told us how much weight you have lost, you have done amazingly well xxx Oh and can we have it in old money ie Stones and lbs rather than kgs , that's if you don't mind of course x
Certainly not... I can do old money too... I've dropped from a 36 inch waist to a 32... A full shirt size and t-shirts are now medium or large rather than XL...
Total weight loss (and don't intend much more frankly) has been 3 stone and a smidge over 4 pounds... 21kg... Happy Aussie!!
Interesting that the scales haven't moved in the last month but body shape certainly has...
Well done Aussie, fantastic achievement , 100 % ripped xxx
Wow that's amazing, though I'm not surprised as you have been going for it hell for leather! I could do with losing a few pounds after overeating for the last ... um ... year actually! My boy goes back to school on 8th, so I'll be back to eating sensibly and less vino collapso then. I'm already back on the beetroot and spinach smoothies - they do wonder for one's bowel!
Haha! Flaxseed is good too!
My weight loss has been over the last year... The last 6 months aided by C25K...
Woohoo! Can't back out now, it's all there in black and white. October's looking quite crowded, so good thing you get a bit of a rest until February. Happy competing!
Yep.. Quick burst of shorter events then 3 months or so of solid winter training awaits... Can't wait! They are all morning events and weekends so they will be treated as my "long runs"...
Wow! Just wow! You have excelled yourself. I bet you have a few more entries on that list before too long. Your weight loss is awesome as well. Keep running
I was tempted by the London Zoo 10K Stampede on the 14th September but have (so far) resisted...
No arguments from me, Aussie 
You are as mad as a box of frogs But congratulations all the same Aussie.
(Says the girl who can run 14 Km but won't enter a park run.)
Maybe we're all mad here !
Oh yeah, we're all that awesome kind of mad here alright...
Get yaself signed up to something before we sign you up Em...
Ripped ..... Looking the picture of health Aussie!
Beautiful scenic loooong runs planned - & I love the in training T
congratulations !
Thanks Jax! I haven't found my abs yet but they must be closer than they've ever been to coming out!
Loving the loooong run... and the t-shirt got a few knowing nods today.. haha!
great places to run, I used to be a member of Kew...is it running all round the gardens? That would be so fab!!!! well done you.....
Yes - it's one of the few events that you run through the gardens themselves... then it's down the Thames Path to Old Deer Park (and your old haunts the Swimming Pools) where the finish line is... the HM path goes down to Ham House and back and finishes back at Old Deer Park too so once I'm done with the 10K I'll wait for the HM crowd to come in...
I also just found out about an event at London Zoo - running through the Zoo and Regents Park... it's a bit close to the Richmond one though really..
zsl.org/zsl-london-zoo/what...
Oh wow... Now that would be amazing.. And running through the gardens will be glorious, I'm v jealous!!
Well done Aussie! We have all on keeping up with you and your race schedule. Great news on the weight loss front!
Thanks Miss W - I see these as training runs... they are all on Sunday mornings which lines up with my usual long run so I think it's a perfect way to keep training but in a "race" atmosphere... so long as I go easy this should be very achievable as I'm running at least 10K most weekends now...
You'll note in the last 30 minutes I've added a 10K as well.. London Zoo - how could I not!
More BLING!
Fantastic! You've put my running list to shame, 7th Sept GNR HM, 14th September 5k fun run, 9th. Nov 10k Mo run.......next race tbc (although a HM, I swear never again, training sucks when you're slower than a snail, sorry I mean it takes up too much time ) hmmmm maybe I need to find more races, more races = more bling
It's all about the bling... You may have noticed I just added the London Zoo one... "entry fee includes entrance to zoo, running past the animals before the zoo opens, a goodie bag and a medal"... sold...
Thanks KK - training runs by a different name... no excuses for no long runs for September and October now with those 10Ks there to keep me running...
I've added one too in the last few minutes - I do love the Zoo...
Bloody hell fire, that's amazing, Aus! That's putting my list to shame! That London Zoo run looks astounding; I wish you'd not shown me that. I do wish you, and others here, wouldn't encourage me like this. I can see an October HM becoming a reality before too long! Your progress is amazing, Aus and your weight loss incredible - very very very well done!
Oh no! The idea of the London zoo sounds wonderful! I'm half tempted to take a look esp as you say there's a medal on offer but I daren't as I'm running the HM at Kew the following weekend. It's my first HM and to say I'm nervous about it is an understatement! Good luck for all your training & races. Well done for your weight lose - can I add that I've lost over 50 lbs from my top weight (& kept if off!) so not far behind you! See you at Kew! I might just take a look at the London zoo 10k now! Lol!
Yay! Another forum member at Kew. I'm doing the 10K so if you let me know your race number I'll look out to cheer you over the line... Unless you finish the HM before my 10K... I reckon some of them might (show offs)...
Thank you for starting this great thread! Wish I could join you but too far darn sarf I'm afraid!
Have fun and then tell us all about it!
I never thought I'd say this...
Thought I'd enjoy it more
I've just gone a bit mad!!
W5R3 - Never thought I'd be posting this!
Week 9 Run 1, and I thought I'd run 5k... spoiler, I hadn't.
