    Nope, absolutely bollocky buff in bed, even in deepest darkest winter.

    Too restricting any other way, but the mad other half sometimes wears a dressing gown to bed 😀

    As mad as a box of frogs that one 😛

    84 hours a week, although 1hr lunch and 2x15min tea breaks per day are included in that.

    Tut tut, you are in roughly the same game as me, what about the 2 on 2 off routine, brings that average right down 🙂

    Mate some people just have no manners or social awareness.

    From your side of the story you did all you could. Just remember there are an extraordinary amount of oddballs out there 😀

    And if they want to move, have a party 😀

    Ifrider, go on to runnersforum, its a great site and everybody is extremely friendly. As oposed to a mountain biking forum where some people run, you get a great section of runners from people just starting out like yourself to ultramarathon runners and all in between.

    Ref gait analysis, im 35 and have been involved in a lot of sports over the years. I always believed it was a load of old rubbish and designed to get a lot of cash out of niave runners. That was until about a year ago when i started to get a recurring injury in my left calf muscle. After a lot of rest then running again it happened again so i saw a physio.

    Long story short is for some reason my left calf was building a lot of tension due to my running style and i was advised to get analysed.

    So far so good. 3 months on and running regularly with no problems. (fingers crossed)

    But to be honest at your stage i doubt very much you need to do this.

    But honestly try runnersforum. Its a cracking friendly forum. And good luck as running is fun once your body adapts 😀

    I have one of the Dealextreme ones to go on the bars along with a joystick on the helmet. It does seem to have a very bright spot in the centre of the beam so will have to try and diffuse it a bit.

    Not tried them out in anger yet. Next week hopefully.

    Yep thats what i was asking, i use it on my comp along with spotify, and sync it to my phone. But it adds a couple of random extra albums that for the life of me i cant get rid of. No itunes on the comp. Also deleted them directly off the memory card. Weird 8)

    I have a sony jobby but the sound on it was pretty low even when maxed up. Turns out they have a preset limit. Pretty annoying.

    Im just using my HTC hero for everything now with spotify and doubletwist.

    I have 2 brothers, one is a vet and has always known exactly what he wanted to do. He is one of the happiest guys i know and an inspiration to me in many ways, The other is a complete ditherer and just goes with the flow. He loves his life and with a masters in zoology decided he was bored last year and is now teaching english in vietnam. Me i was very motivated in my chosen careers until about last year when for some reason i hit a plateau and realised that i had finally got to exactly the place i wanted to go and kind of lost interest. I dont think i am as happy as my brothers because of a few choices i have made but…..in answer to your question it really doesn’t matter about plans. What matters is the happiness that others bring to your life and the happiness you bring to theirs. Live a good life and try to be happy. The rest will hopefully fall into place.
