training / emailing (Chris)

last week was a fairly busy week i guess...went out for a couple of runs on tuesday and friday. good to get round arthurs seat as hadnt done that in a while...allbeit at a pretty slow pace ha ha (sorry stu!). that was swiftly followed by another 5k parkrun down at sliverknowes promenade on sat morning. dont know how i got on yet as no results up on the website. reckon i chopped a tiny bit of my personal best. thats been 3 weeks in a row ive been able to get down there and will be there this saturday too. only another 46 after that to get my free t-shirt!!

the mighty southern only manged a draw with edin caley yest. 2-2. shoulda won and defo feels like 2 points dropped but hey least we didnt get beat. theyll be up there come the business end of the season. twas a game which saw the stroth debut the shiny new red/blood orange nike boot boots. felt good. comfy as. shoulda scored. another game which a couple of chances went-a-begging for me. need to improve on that goal to chance ratio bigtime.

combine all that running with football yesterday and i was a pretty knackered old git by yest afternoon. meaning i had a lil snooze and consequently missed most of the liverpool west brom game. good to see el nino getting off the mark. he'll probs go off on international duty and get injured playing for spain now...

no word or news on any sponsorship for the big cycle trip yet..still early i guess. stuart (and to a certain extent myself..) has been pretty busy sending out emails to basically anyone that sells bikes with the hope of getting sum sponsorship but had no luck so far.

got the facebook page done - parthenon2parthenon charity cycle. no photos up yet so that needs done. got a few members so far so hopefully that'll help spread the word.

saw dinner for schmucks last nite - pretty decent. bit odd in bits. espesh the dude from flight of ze chonchords. thinking the original french version will be better...which ill probs never see anyway.
