As for cartoon jingles, you must get Thomas the Tank Engine over there - I think it originated in England (yes, I know that Ireland and England are two very different places)...the U.K. - you get my drift. Anyhow, my kids watch that show now and again and I get the opening and closing jingle rattling around in my head. It's terrible.<BR/><BR/>Keep running man.

Actually not 'frozen' but very still and waiting to pounce and never moved as I ran up to and by it (~200m or so). Good luck with the 'program'! I'll be starting the same in 2-3 weeks and will keep a close watch!Love2Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17862751632099235794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1147469160414460502006-05-12T22:26:00.000+01:002006-05-12T22:26:00.000+01:00Argggghh!

And as a marathon mum who did FLM last year for the first time at the slowest possible pace, am working on getting to 12 minute miles if I can... AM soooo slow. I blame the hills where I live. I've written a book about it called Running on Empty:Diary of a Marathon Mum. Due to a bookshop near you soon....<BR/>Check out my website at www.marathonmum.com<BR/>Seriously, you can't be as crap as me!<BR/>Keep on running!<BR/>JaneJane Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17514534117777707886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1147455428214428012006-05-12T18:37:00.000+01:002006-05-12T18:37:00.000+01:00Awesome workout!

I guess that's kind of silly when I just ran five times in three days - it's probably less stressful on the body to get the 24 hour rest between over the six days. Maybe after relay training is done I'll give it a try!<BR/><BR/>I've had jingles like that stuck in my head too - it drives me nuts. It must be the rhythm and the stride that does it.Backofpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779487553272296752noreply@blogger.com
