GOBservations and GOBformation - thus he spake unto us:
"I like to crush weetabixes" (possibly in the style of Stu "I could crush a grape" Francis! LOL). Oxford RW Social, August 2007.
Not a chance of a PB tonight as I feel a little heavy and my legs feel slow. Target realistically is just to try to run between 35.04 and 36.40.
Talking about his avoidance of iced baths : "I can live with bruising and I can cope with pain"
*Oh bugger
I only get 35 miles the week before a race and I have used 22 already.....*
*I HATE Tomatoes!* he really does too!
*I'm the* D_E_V_I_L *the DEVIL* tempted to run a long way? It was his fault, blame him.
*I dont do SAND* any suggestion of competing in those desert ultras will meet with this brush-off.
*Im shy* recently posted on an RW forum. ROFLMAO.
*There ARE other marathons* don't mention FLM, it'll only irritate.
*I hate rain* he's a big soft girly when its damp
*Fast and long - NO NO NO NO!!!! Slow and long everytime* words to live by
*Save your PB's for a race day* keep your powder dry
*I'm not a bloke, I'm the bloke, the D_E_V_I_L the DEVIL bloke* never question his good looks!
*BOLLOX YOU CANT RUN SLOWER*
*Run beyond race distance in training at least once and at a slow pace*
*If you slow later in races then it means you ran to fast earlier*
*Race pace runs should be no longer that a quarter race distance*
*Tempo runs can be longer but still 10-15% slower than race pace*
*Do intervals at faster than race pace.*
*injuries are NOT caused by running slow
they ARE caused by bad technique*
Zen-like clarity:
*without focus you are always compromising *
*"Show us your balls" (Questionable help when riding bike support RNR '06)
*I run quite well on Water these days on anything under20 miles* #10669: 01/01/2007
*I did my first marathon off a longest run of 13 miles ......I did NOT run 3hrs*
*SH*TE*, a global descriptive for covering a bad race
*sh "IT" happens
smile and groove on*
*I think I may be an addict*
*I'm the D_E_V_I_L and I'm always BITCHIN :¬)
*any good gossip ?
"I'm not really a tempo run fan but came up with this" TEMPOVALS
*I'm fluffy* When questioned about his coaching style on an MSN chat
*But I am, REALLY* When questioned further about his fluffy style
"MONOTIVALS" Ultra training for lapped courses
Link (roll over me to see where I go)
*2:30 yes, once you get under 2:30 you're really gonna be on the edge of reason"
When talking about competing in the Marathon des Sables
"I have no interest in the MdS, I hate sand and it has a rest day"
"PEEleks" like fartleks but chasing people down after stopping for a pee
