It was supposed to be
run a half marathon by the time I'm 25. I'm 26 in July; ain't gonna happen. However, by October-ish I'll probably be capable of it.

By the time I'm 30 I'd like to have spent at least 3 months travelling the world.

I've decided to take 6 months travelling when my dad sells his business.

We have squirrels here.

Get one that can play the flute.

Maybe French

Ever!

and wine

It's full of French people.
Actually I met a really nice French girl through Aber's group. She's lovely and smiley and lots of fun......but she's the only one.

My stepdad retires in May
chances of me getting 6 months travelling money out of him are...well. Slim, shall we say.

Practical and combines both

You should do the Nottingham one with me and Darth in September

(Bazongaloid, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:07, Reply)

It's a possibility
that or the Birmingham one, if I'm still here in October.

Trouble with running in October
is it's likely to be raining. Especially in Brum.
(Bazongaloid, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:15, Reply)

Having run a 10k last year in June
which was like running through hot cotton wool, I can safely say I'd much rather run in the rain.
(berk, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:21, Reply)

Yes, but September is going to be a lot cooler than June.
Probably.

I just want to get more people involved so I don't have to make awkward small talk with Darth.

If I can manage 7 miles without dying by my birthday
I'll sign up. But not if there are a lot of hills, I don't like hills...
(berk, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:25, Reply)

When's your birthday?

(Bazongaloid, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:26, Reply)

July.

(berk, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:29, Reply)

You could come and do the London 10K run.
I'm considering signing up. Blue Green Olga and DiT may also be doing it.
(Bazongaloid, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:32, Reply)

When is it?

(berk, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:33, Reply)

July 10th

(Bazongaloid, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:33, Reply)

Maybe
but I'll have been down the week before for Swipe's bash/Pulp, I'm not sure my finances will stretch to two trips in one month.
Also, I really fucking hate running in hot weather.
(berk, Thu 7 Apr 2011, 14:34, Reply)

Why not just go for a 6.6 mile run
then run back again then you can at least say you've done it.
