Liz and Jude got first and second in the Manchester and Ladies District Cycle Association 10m handicap Time Trial on the 20th May, yeah and they were the fastest team, making it a double win.

Jude's actual time was 28:03 making her 5th overall and Liz's actual time was 30:42 making her 8th overall. Fantastic achievement - a personal best with both women knocking off a couple of minutes from their last TT.

(I managed to take 3 pictures and ride for 40 minutes - the first ride out since my injury)

Chorlton Men's Cookery Club have texted home today, 29th May to say they have are in Spain having walked the Ordesa Canyon.

A website says 'for a rugged adventure, you can follow a steeply ascending trail from the floor of Ordesa Canyon to gain the lofty Faja de las Flores, a natural, horizontal "groove" etched in canyon wall. Proceed along a trail set into this faja ("strip of land") 3,000 feet above the floor of the canyon. This is truly a five-star hike and without doubt one of the most thrilling trail experiences available to hikers in Europe!'. Could this be the place? Looks like a Via Ferrata to me!

Heather and I both did the Swim a Mile event between the 14th - 28th May. Heather broke a personal best by swimming 72 x 25 m lengths in one go! Well done that woman.

I used it as hydrotherapy sessions logging 65 lengths over 5 swimming sessions and managing 4 lengths of crawl to just to finish off! The benefiting charity was The Wright Foundation Researching into the link between physical activity and healthy lungs and heart, particulary with young people.

Meanwhile - May 21 st, Liz and Jo entered the Run-For-Life 5k event at Arley Hall, Cheshire. There text message said 'Dun it - 32 mins, wet + triumphant. Forgot camera. Triathlon next!'

Well there ain't no stopping them now - they're in the groove, they're on the move!

Here you are - No. 4632 and 5276 out for a bit of fun with 25,000 other runners on Sunday 21st May. Martine started in the next wave. The 10 minute warm-up exercise in Portland Street got us going - it was plain to see that Rog has not been to an aerobic class before!

Anyway we were all pleased with our time Rog got under 50 mins, I got under an hour and Martine did it in just over 50 mins. It was a fabulous event, very well organised and great to see Manchester streets full of runners.

Thanks to our supporters, Mike and Heather. Next year Mike.

50:24 for the Great Manchester Run for Martine - (my watch said 50:22 but who is going to argue over 2 secs - me!). Great day for running but not for spectating! Mike missed my finish due to me being too quick and him being in Ellis Brighams .... who said it was the women who went shopping!

Halfords have heart rate monitors for £19.99 - loads of functions - used the watch on the day and it was great - kept me to 5 min kilometres.

Glynis had a great run and is showing signs of promising form - well done!
