His wee brother seems to be enjoying them and got a PB on his second attempt, so that's pretty awesome. Only a handful more runs until he can have a tshirt

Very nice! So...NEXT saturday I shall make my debut. Won't be going all out as I'm dead after today but if anyone fancies a pacer (19-25 mins) I'll be very happy to oblige.

And then next week I'm working in Manchester so won't be around to catch Salty Dog! We've only introduced 'official' pacers at the recent events. Well, only one pacer, me, and I've been doing the 25 minute one since VLM: facebook.com I've got another label for 22.30, which is another pace that there seems to be a few at, which would help them.

We've just started a handicap league and so people are gunning for certain times. I expect someone would be happy to have you pace them at anywhere between 20-30 mins!
Salty Dog May 2012 6:54pm, 13 May 2012 1,392 posts	Quote Pin Salty Dog Yep, sounds like a plan. Makes sense to have an 'audition' for pacing to make sure i actually can! Ok, i'll send a message and put myself forward for that then.
