....we're gonna need a bigger mankini.

Good luck Adrian.....Don't forget the water....



ROCKMAN

cheers mate - that and Lucozade, should see me through it.
...plenty of pubs on route, as well.

So how's the training coming on?

thankyou for your interest.

I did 20 miles, at the weekend.
The final 3-4 miles, were a torturous jog/walk.

I'm planning to do 16-18 miles this weekend, which leads me, into
the 'tapering' period of the training regime.
I have my final 'dress rehersal' race, on sunday 5th April,
a 16 mile road race.
Then there's 3 weeks of light training, before the big day (1 month, today)

if anyone would like to sponsor me, please do so, here:-

Jagshemash!

Very admirable! Hope you have a splendid run.

Good luck with the marathon, Adrian - I'm exhausted just by thinking about running such a distance

cheers mate - appreciate it.

Did you see Zimmy, this week?

Sadly, no I didn't - I couldn't find decent seats, only seats in the back....and Oslo Spektrum is a real poor venue becuase of the echo, so being in the front is the only option. Also....I'm not in Oslo this month - but up north. Listened through the show yesterday thanks to the Dime torrent though

You know....once you reach a certain age, it's difficult just getting yourself out of the house - I'm no youngster anymore

that's a shame - i've only listened to the first night, so far (Billy, etc)
- very enjoyable...he seems to be enjoying himself.
coming over in April?

If not for the study - and the obvious lack of income, I'd be in both London, Oslo and Stockholm....will have to wait until the 2011-leg of Bob's NET !
Yes his voice is better than last year; but the band is not. Hope he will be stirring the setlist up again - and include new material, later on. The songs from Modern Times were the absolute highlights of 2006/2007....they gave him a new spark on stage.....especially songs like Nettie Moore and Spirit On The Water, I'll bet it would be the same case with "Together Through Life"

I can sympathize - due to financial constraints and bad timing, i can only make one show - Cardiff. Though, i do have a GA ticket, and hopefully i'll get some new TTL material, as it's released the day before this show.
have a good weekend.

Hey you're on to something there, Rock - I know a polar fox who's sniffing around this place, I should talk him into moving in

Oh have a grand one, you too, Adrian!

Not long to go now, Adrian - hope the training has gone well. No doubt you are now taking it easy until Sunday, ready for those 26miles 385yards!

Yeah good luck for sunday.

Having done the london myself, many years ago, its a great atmosphere and feeling.

Cheers mates - i'm going to the London Excel for the Marathon Expo, this afternoon to collect my race pack and spend a load of money on crap i don't want or need.

I'm carrying an injury- but i'll get round regardless.... hopefully before
nightfall.
The weather forecast is heavy rain - suits me just fine.....been training in similar conditions for last 8 months - don't want any of this sun and heat nonsense!

Yeh, rain is good although preferrably only a light shower. Will you also be carbo-loading with a massive plate of pasta on saturday?!

all this week, mate!

I useed to find the biggest bugbear was the wind, heavy rain or anything else wasant too bad, but a fierce wind was a right bugger.

I thought the weather was supposed to be decent for the weekend as well.

Good luck Adrian!

Good luck Adrian

a quick reminder if any one would like to sponsor me:-

Adrian's still a way short of his target - come on IORR can you spare a couple of quid or so for a good cause?

Go Aid go!

Pint of London Pride will add some rocket fuel......

Good luck!
