.... It's All Happening'

In the words of famous cricket commentator Bill Lawry.... 'Its all  Happening' what with Heart Murmers, Sickness, Triathlons, and Birthdays, and throw in a bit of training  its been a busy few days for the Trash reporters.
Today had intended to go into town for the HuRTS swim, but thought it was too fast for me so just decided to do my own swim at the local pool instead. First time in ages so set myself to do 8 x 200s, Surprised on the first few but knew i was going to die in the ar$e at some time. Held them all around the 1.45s per/100, so I'll take that as a pass mark for me.
Times were; 3.26, 3.29,3.28, 3.27, 3.32, 3.33, 3.33, 3.36 -
Need to get back into my swimming before we have the last Biathlon of the season on the 29th March - or else i may have the distinction of Tom swimming over the top of me :)

As i said, its been a busy week - Yesterday i asked the question where was everyone at training on Thursday? Well -  Tom is trying to take Enda's crown from him for the year with constant colds and man flu that he is on antibiotics for the 9th time in 7 weeks.
HuRTS #1 Tucks, has something more serious, a heart murmur, which doesn't sound to good - although he does tell me its fine it means he can only push it so hard from now on and promises to revert back to beating Tom by the customary 8 seconds.
This is turn started a trend with Big Sammy also coming out and saying he has the same thing ........and surprise surprise, Old Kanser couldn't go without one as well ( and even said his was bigger). I felt a bit left out yesterday as all of a sudden it was the in thing :)
Had Enda badgering me all day, trying to get me to Husky for the tri this weekend, wanting an easy victory as he knows i haven't swum or cycled in ages........Very Sad.
AND THEN the Big news for all readers is .................... Tomorrow is old David Kanes 39th Birthday, Yep the old boy is clocking on the years now and so he has invited ALL HuRTS team around to his pad from 5pm tomorrow to help celebrate, all food and drink is provided. Just rock up and tell him Timmy sent ya :)
And Finally after many months of waiting ( and slagging the race director) i can now confirm i am officially IN for this years Six Foot Track 46k Marathon race in the Blue Mountains on the 10th March. So more importantly i better get the old snooker cue out as i aim to clean upon the green baize over Highnam. Kane and Tuckey on the Saturday evening :)

It seems a few people were not happy with my latest movie review, with some Plonker even taking up the 'Mouse' option to avoid being found out ????? Shame on you .... and i will find find out :)

And even 'The Master ' questioning where it strays from reality? , All i will say is 'Great Movie, but i don't believe despite being very frail these days, she is senile and sees Ghosts of old Husband Dennis ???

Have a great weekend all, I will be out doing the Strider's Equalizer on Sunday in prep for training for the 6ft Track

Cheers
