Nutty, can I ask two questions


What sort of pace/distance are you running at currently?

Assuming we are of a similar pace (Se my runs here


Would you want a training partner for some of your runs?

Maybe we need to create a special forum wave for when running so potentially unable to say "do you post?!" ??


Have also realised that the 3 of you I spoke to yesterday - I didn't ask what you're names on here were so still not sure who I met.... not doing 3 consecutive nights out for my birthday next year - realising brain can't handle it!!!

Buggie - we had realised the same thing as you walked back from the cafe but didn't get to meet again - citizened was the gentleman reclining on the ground, his partner in the deck chair beside him (a lurker on here) and I was the white haired loon in the other deckchair

Eric - you are way out of my running league!


Thanks for the offer but:

a) I'm only running between 5-10k a session as it's part of a triathlon training (so quite often do 20-40k on a bike first then run)

b) The triathlon I've been working toward is this weekend so training will be much less often afterwards

c) I hate running, maybe because I weigh so much it hurts! (so re (b) unlikely to do so much running in the schedule post-tri)

d) I have a baby due in September so suspect all training may go out of the window to make time for sleeping :)


Again thanks for the offer, I suspect there are a few more accomplished runners on here who may join you if you start a dedicated post....


I like the sound of this wave - any ideas anyone?

I can go slower!!!

OK, no problem, didn;t know was that close. I'd like to do a tri, but swimming skills are non-existant. Having lessons so i can do a descent pace are on my "To Do" list.

I run with Dulwich Park Runners (Beginners lessons starting soon - Watch that website) , so run with the fast peeps quite regular, but am always looking for others to run with, it just make the runs more enjoyable, even if you don't chat much.

      Noise from Lime bike overnight servicing

      By Vlado · Posted

      Hello there, can I pls check whether anyone else on here has been affected by noise from e-bike hire companies servicing bikes overnight? I live near an e-bike parking bay and am regularly awoken at silly o'clock by the noise from mechanics chucking the bikes in and out of vans. Lime seems to be the worst offender. Please either post on here or PM me if you are experiencing similar issues.

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      By Angelina · Posted

      Your mental health is affected by your environment, and how you do things affects your life. If you can focus on small things, it will have a big impact. I think you're being facetious, but people do live like that. I also operate an organised chaos strategy, as I'm sure many people do, which is essential with family and busy lives

      What helps you keep on top of your home?

      By Angelina · Posted

      I disagree with the who concept of tidying one room at a time. I find it's more effective to increase the overall level of tidy by 10% regularly, and take regular breaks.  Always straighten your bed first - your bed is your priority and your haven. Change the sheets if you have clean ones to use. 1. pick up all rubbish around the house; take it out. 2. pick up all crockery etc that needs a wash: put it all in one place and start to sort it out. Wash and dry whatever you can put away easily. Wash things by type - I'll do cups then plates, then cutlery, then pots..... 3. Kitchen surfaces - tidy things you can, be ruthless - everything is going to need a home. Sweep the floor, wipe the surfaces. 4. Pick up all laundry around the house. Start to sort it out so you are in control of it - wash types together - eg all sheets.  4. bathroom - so on..... Then, the entire house is an better environment. and you can just keep going.
