On the other hand I might just run it as a social and chat with some of the other fetchies that I know are running it as an easy session

Boycie Jan 2007 6:17pm, 2 Jan 2007 0 posts	Quote Pin Boycie It is the national schedule from Bruce Tulloch's "Running is Easy" - which I assume he meant ironically!
