| 00:00 - 00:05 | I was bored and the girl who lives next door, said, Hey get off your fat arse and join Lymm Runners |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | So I went one Wednesday morning to Lymm Library |
| 00:07 - 00:10 | There was half a dozen women hanging about. |
| 00:11 - 00:16 | But I was a bit shy so ran past them. Anyway, I dodged past them, thinking they won't notice me.. |
| 00:17 - 00:21 | I got on to the trans pennine trail and somehow, They were in front of me. |
| 00:21 - 00:24 | I thought, thats not possible and tried to catch up. |
| 00:29 - 00:31 | Fiona the Fearsome saw me |
| 00:31 - 00:34 | and shouted to the others not to stop, its called mustering apparently. When I caught up, they ran away again. |
| 00:50 - 00:56 | By the time Icaught up I was knackered and could hardly breathe when |
| 00:58 - 00:59 | So, Then they ran off and left me! |
| 00:59 - 01:01 | Fiona the Fearsome calls back to me "Hey |
| 01:04 - 01:06 | "you can join even if you can't keep up" |
| 01:06 - 01:08 | So I joined and then a week later she says |
| 01:13 - 01:14 | "It's time you entered a race" |
| 01:14 - 01:16 | "If I can run 20k- you can run 10k" |
| 01:16 - 01:20 | "How fars that" ? she said "6 miles". 6 whole miles!! |
| 01:21 - 01:27 | "What for?" I said. "Bling" she said, "Whats Bling" I said. " A Medal" She said |
| 01:35 - 01:36 | 6 miles for a bloody medal. |
| 01:36 - 01:39 | And I might be lucky and get a crappy T shirt. If I'm lucky!! |
| 01:41 - 01:44 | So I entered and got a crappy T shirt and a crappy medal too. |
| 01:44 - 01:47 | Then, at the next coffee run, showing off my crappy T shirt |
| 01:47 - 01:49 | Fiona says "It's time you did another race". |
| 01:50 - 01:53 | What for?. I've only just done one. |
| 01:54 - 01:56 | "More Bling"! She says... |
| 01:56 - 01:58 | But I've already got one. |
| 01:58 - 02:02 | " Its not enough she says" "Do a half marathon next" |
| 02:05 - 02:07 | She says "If I can do a marathon" |
| 02:10 - 02:11 | "you can do a half" |
| 02:11 - 02:13 | 13 and a bit Macclesfield miles |
| 02:15 - 02:17 | What for? ... "Bling" She says "and ... |
| 02:17 - 02:20 | another crappy T shirt, Besides you like Hills." |
| 02:21 - 02:28 | Some evil bastard said "hills are our friends" and I believed him. |
| 02:29 - 02:30 | Because he's Irish |
| 02:30 - 02:32 | Yes. I fall for it all the time. |
| 02:36 - 02:39 | Then she made me do it again at Helsby. |
| 02:40 - 02:42 | and again at Buxton for bling and a crappier T shirt |
| 02:50 - 02:55 | Thank God I got rurned down for London |
| 02:56 - 02:58 | Are you going to do a Marathon then? |
| 02:58 - 03:04 | I've entered Manchester after much prodding from Fiona and the others. |
| 03:04 - 03:09 | I've had lots of useless information from those who have done a marathon but I'm kacking it really |
| 03:09 - 03:11 | What the hell have I done. |
| 03:16 - 03:20 | Do you think this is a good idea, really? |
| 03:23 - 03:26 | I might get another Medal, I mean Bling |
| 03:31 - 03:36 | And an even crappier T Shirt |
