* NEW * England rugby jersey

September 20th, 2007 No comments

Being an avid rugby fan and a proud Welshman – I just had to share this little gem with you. So may I present to you, the all NEW England rugby union shirt :)

It’s available from all good sports shops and some rubbish ones too. Oh and it’s also priced at the bargain price of £36 as well :)

If you don’t know what the hell I’m on about then read this story on the BBC website.

Away with the Swans

September 18th, 2007 No comments

My first Swans away trip of the season is now underway :-)

Here I am sitting on the Arriva Trains 14:55 Swansea to Manchester Piccadily train, en-route to Cardiff to meet Lance. From there it’s by car to Cheltenham – via some quality watering hole of course.

More to follow later…

Another day…

September 17th, 2007 No comments

Another day, another training session and more importantly another 26 minutes 35 seconds of roadwork in preparation for the Swansea Bay 10k this coming Sunday.

There was a distinct autumnal feel to the air whilst I trudged my way around a 3 mile circuit – not that I minded at all. I’d much prefer the cooler, breezier and often wetter weather we get at this time of year, especially when I’m out and about running. However, the opposite is most definitely true when I’m cycling!!

Wellie Wednesday

September 12th, 2007 No comments

Strange title huh? Well that’s what Wednesday’s are called in DDWT Junior’s school. The reason being that all of the kids have to wear their wellies and as a result get to spend the morning outside in the school’s garden area – having a look at what nature has to offer. Now how cool is that. I don’t remember having that when I was in school :(

Having heard quite abit about ‘Twitter‘ (yes yet another social networking site) of late, I decided to take a closer look and sign up for a free account. Basically twitter is a social networking tool which can be updated via sms, IM or online and your ‘friends’ get updated via one of these methods as to your whereabouts/thoughts or whatever you choose to ‘twitter’ about.

It’s also got a nice little widget for blogger (and the other main blog players) as can be seen opposite. I’ll give it a go anyway, especially as I’m got a huge amount of free txt messages per month. So watch me twitter as they say!

After a day off from the running yesterday, it was time to get back onto breaking some slabs lunchtime again. I took the same 2-3 mile route as the other day, but was a minute quicker this time around with a time of 25 minutes 29 seconds. Perhaps what is more worrying is that I don’t feel in any sort of condition to run next weekend’s Swansea Bay 10K!
