    Thursday 31/8<br />
    <br />
    Easy 40min jog today.  Felt a bit flat so want to save myself up for a big one on Saturday, and for once I'm not talking about getting on the lash. <br />
    <br />
    Breakfast: banana<br />
    Lunch: chicken foccacia<br />
    Dinner: sausages, eggs and beans on toast (flatmates still out of town, must remember to get the locks changed before they get back)<br />
    <br />
    Ok so I'm now into the last 10 days before the run, what should I be doing in particular during this time?  Anything I should be eating or drinking?  Going to do three more runs: Saturday, Monday, Wednesday, then the HM is on Sunday.<br />
    <br />
    Thoughts?

        Drown yourself with water and piss it out just as fast.<br />
        <br />
        And no more spooning.

          Especially with Barnsey :whistle:<br />
          <br />
          Water is always good Barn, and 7 serves of fruit and veg a day to keep the toxins at bay. Lean meat and pasta to help with all the protein and carb needs too.

            Nah mate you'll be fine as long as you don't let the occassion get to you. Go out at a steady pace and only concentrate on the next 100m. You only have to finish, not win the sodding thing.  Feel the force.<br />

                    Hmmm, I'm in Dunedin tomorrow night. I might send a cruel text to Barnyard telling him there's free beer all night if he joins me. 😁

                                I didn't make it.  <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /><br />

                                I apologise to everyone I have let down, you guys have been absolutely fantastic and believe you me I am far more disappointed in myself than you are.  But my head is in a bad space at the moment - work commitments and relationship fuck ups and family illness and all the usual shit - and I just wasn't mentally or physically prepared.  I do however believe the training and hard work I put in has been of benefit going forward, to coin a phrase.<br />

                                Feel free to further bring me down by posting insults and abuse but I won't be reading TSF until I hand in my thesis next month.<br />

                                  Barn, needless to say I'm disappointed in your inability to front up.<br />
                                  <br />
                                  However I am exceptionally proud of your commonsense in the face of other commitments.<br />
                                  <br />
                                  You tried and you failed. The lesson is: never try <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
