But only for 50 minutes this evening. Having left the clubhouse with the group that appeared to be either a) in a real hurry to get somewhere or b) chased by something with very sharp teeth, my legs caught up with me somewhere just after Millennium Bridge and started complaining about the abuse they were getting. As I wasn’t the only one in the same condition, the group gradually fragmented, and I ended up with a minor gaggle cutting things short and heading down Ousegate rather than making the whole (and much, much longer) city centre loop.
If the initial pace had been a bit slower I’d probably have managed to push things out a bit further, but I was into my mid-run stride by the time we’d turned the corner past the northern end of the racecourse. That’s about 3 miles sooner than it would normally happen, which wasn’t a good sign. Sub 6-minute miles are all very well, but only for short distances.
This is it, for the moment at least – the current final resting place of timzilla.net courtesy of Hosting Unlimited. By an amazing (for me) freak piece of forward planning, I’d actually downloaded a complete copy of the site as it used to be before I hosed the oneandone webspace, so the templates are pretty much back to where they were. Which may or may not be a good thing, depending on your aesthetic tastes and tolerance of really nasty HTML code, but they’ll do for now.
