A tentative return

JLP had urged me to try a run this week, so decided to go today. No pain with the heel over the weekend so put on my Brooks ST racers with the heel wedge in and jogged the flat 5km route in 21:56. Felt great just to be out there again. Saw Clyde, Charlie, Warwick and Travis while out. No pain at all from the heel but it is how it reacts that is more important. Kirst must have put my shorts and vest in a hot wash as they felt unnaturally tight.

Also rode in in 35:43. Felt tired doing so but I think that was more to do with a big weekend.

Bad news was the Toon's demise. Championship football next season for the first time since 1992. All they needed was 1 goal to stay up, but from all accounts that didn't ever look like eventuating.

Mate, Sing along....
Oh me lads, you shou've seen us gannin
Passing the folks along the road
And all of them were starin'
All the lads and lasses there
They all had smilin' faces
Gannin along the Scotswood Road
To see the Blaydon Races.......In the championship

They were terrible, and you don't look at only last nights match Tom - remember the damage has been done over 38
Cheers
On the bright side, Blackpool as nice place to visit next season

Running! Always a good thing. No Viduka in the premier league next year.

They scored the goal at the wrong end Tom, simple mistake.
