Friday 24th July

We are all on holiday for a week, which should provide us with an opportunity to get some serious training done for the Great Scottish Run. George Bowie and Dr Prockter have been pretty good over the last couple of weeks, both of them cranking up some serious mileage in preparation. However, Des McLean is still pacing himself. And by pacing myself, I actually mean going for the odd walk round the block. The good news is that he has been off the cigarettes for over a month now and that's got to help. I think it was putting him off that he could only run 200 metres before he was completely out of breath....so well done Des!
