Doing some fundraising for the half marathon with a couple of mates for Bolton Hospice.

Any donations greatly appreciated.

Bump for pay day!

Happy to contribute. It's a wonderful place. As some on here know I lost my Dad to cancer last year and the care he received there was fantastic. He also raised money for it by running the London marathon in the mid 90s after they looked after my grandad.
Best of luck. I'll be watching so will give you a shout!

Anyone at Bowton tomorrer then?

Nope. At lytham with my parkrun touring mate. Not even the slightest of inclines in sight. I'll not be joining him to support tranmere away at Southport afterwards though. Git.

Can't do it, Dude. Have to get home and showered, get to mum's to say HB (oh, and buy her summat in between) then be in Preston for cricket for 12:30

[Beefheart]

I should be there

[Bruce Rioja]

I should be there

Because you're in the A Team, obviously!

I can only assume I've accidentally made an A-Team reference.

You don't recognise your biggest hit??

[Beefheart]

D'oh! It may surprise you to learn I'm not a fan of my own music!

[Bruce Rioja]

Just a quick heads up. No Heaton PR this weekend.

[Gary the Enfield]

Good luck to everyone running Bolton Half Marathon this weekend (including our own Beefheart)

Shame I can't be there.

Just done my own 11 mile homage to it though.

How did you get on Beefy? Missed you at the finish.

Entered the Bury 10k on 18th September. My first at that distance. #prayfordryweather

It went pretty horrifically. Finished in like 2.35 which was slower than even my worst training run. Thinking of doing the Manchester half in a few weeks. Finished though...

What was it Beefy? You go out too hard or just not feeling it on the day? You do right to get on another asap and just put it down to experience
