Going to be walking the 10k in order to raise money for Befriend a Child; would feel bad taking the donations and not doing the race. My work double all the donations I collect too, so would be a total waste.

I won't ice it the day of the race or anything. As you say, to speed up the healing process, and I don't think I've done that much damage to it.

Yeah. It all happened when I knackered the ligaments in a nasty challenge on the rugby pitch. Thought it was just my ligaments, but a few months later started getting this inflammation in my achilles. I usually stay on top of it, but when it's not been bad in a long while I get complacent, I suppose. It's kinda my fault, as I probably haven't been warming it up and down sufficiently. Just gonna wait til Sunday morning, take ibuprofen, stretch and ioce it, hopefully I'll at least get through the race.

My achilles tendonitis reared it's ugly head on a practice 10k today. Might not be able to do the race now, and it I do, it'll be through the pain no doubt. Going to go get my running style evaluated as I think I must need a certain type of shoes.
Still, I got to just under 7k in 35 minutes which is amazing for what felt like a leisurely enough pace. About 5 of those kilometres were with a tammy achilles too.
Pretty fucking sad as this has been on and off for 2 years.

I've revised my target to 45 - 50 as I've not trained enough and I'll likely be a bit hungover. I don't deserve under 50 minutes, to be fair. Going to do the route tonight at a leisurely pace as it starts at my front door. Will aim for about 55 minutes.

I loved Gears 3!!

For people who like lists of footballers. As of this post, only Japan have announced squad numbers, and they meet my approval. No midfielders wearing 9 or any of that pish.
Left back wearing #5, a la the huns. Fuck that.

I reckon Moyes might go to Newcastle.

Yeah, pretty stoked they're coming to Aberdeen. Carson Wells are playing with them in Dundee the following night so hoping we'll get on this bill too.

Apart from it being the day after my brother (Shaki)'s wedding celebrations, I am.

Just smashed reasonably difficult 6km in ~28minutes. Strange given my failings on the treadmill only 2 days ago! Pretty stoked. Hopefully I can get closer to 45 minutes in the BH 10k!

My girlfriend's mother tried to give me decaf recently so I punched her right in the mouth.

The Carlton was great. More gigs there.
Do you really think it would ever work, given the proximity to people's homes (i.e. on the other side of the wall)? It was one good night and great atmosphere, but it's obviously not going to be sustainable.

Yeah, I had a few qualms about the Downstairs PA when I put a gig on there recently but hey ho. The guitars had to come right down to make room for the vocals and the result was bad sound, IMO. I guess it doesn't help when you get a big hitter on the drums in there, but I don't see that micing up drums and amps has to be a neccessity, not with the power of amps people have these days. I don't think the PA has the capacity for a loud band.

Just did 3km on the treadmill and felt like I was dying. Often have a day like that where I have 0 energy. I think a bacon roll and coffee being the only things I'd consumed today can't have helped. Pretty bad for moral less than a fortnight away from a race!

True Detective, by the way. Woah.

He's the guy who chopped Jamie's hand off and is pally with the Boltons. He was sent to find and capture the Stark boys because their existence weakens Bolton's position in the north. He did a piss poor job of it though. Surprisingly so.
Right enough! Cheers.
There are an AWFUL LOT of characters, it can be hard to keep up sometimes.

Who was the boy that scouted the camp before they attacked it? Why did he want Bran? I must've missed it.
I seriously have never had a man crush to the same extent as I do with Kit Harrington. Outrageously handsome.

It's totally fine throughout the day, I'm fine walking about and that, but as soon as I stretch it it goes all rubbery. Don't think running on it is advisable, given it packed in on Tuesday. Back to the physio for me :-(
