Well where have all the runners gone? This is the question Two Fruits and I pondered on our run up Rob Roy yesterday. Of all the people that received the email sent out each week by TFs we could think of only two who are actually running anything of any substance. Pam M and Speedy G. Everyone else is either injured, given it away or gone to the spongy side (triathalon).

So the Two Fruit's school of longevity is still going strong. Must be the training techniques that are helping us run further and not shorter. It's all about having a plan an sticking to it.

For me it's a week of taper before the CP100. The last of the planned 12HR/100K runs.

Did you read Pam's result at Glasshouse, 1st female in the 100 mile in just over 23 hrs. Excellent performance by her.
Still don't know what has happened to the rest, just couldn't keep up the pace, as slow as we are. Even Mrs Muscles has a niggle, no surprises there, as we said, low endurance base. Good luck at CP100.
