Psychometric testing
I went running in the Peaks today with Jane, partner of Kate. It was a sort of compatibility test to see if we think we're about equally matched fitness wise and personality wise to do the SLMM together as Jane's team-mate had dropped out. I reckon Jane is a bit fitter than me, she didn't seem to be wheezing quite as much as me on the hills, but I didn't embarrass myself by collapsing in a crying heap, so it went OK on that front. We're entered together now so Jane can't have thought me too weird. Hopefully it'll stay that way and she won't need to take a spork to my heart in the middle of the overnight camp. I have to go and weigh some kit now so we can compare spreadsheets and be properly geeky about it. I had a great day out today and I'm really looking forward to the race.

Ali mentioned you were doing that, she now says she wants to do something like that. Crazy girl!
You should both enter one next year!
I'm not sure she would enjoy it! I think I would need a lot of practice first as well.
has anyone seen my life? someone stole it ;)
ah the delights of comparing spreadsheets! Kitchen scales, carbs per gram on your food. scratching the head as the bag weighs considerably more than the spreadsheet says it should.
Damm I am jealous, meant to be doing klets but don't think I am ready for two days running on my foot just yet.
kate - ha ha, yeah we joked a lot about stealing your life while we were out running knowing you were at the workhouse. Sorry! Maybe you can come with us next time ;0)
anthony - this whole MM thing is the perfect sporting activity for me, I'm such a kit junkie, I'm loving all the preparation. Sorry to hear you're still not fit enough to enter :0(
A Tea-Kate and Trio pairing, now that could be intresting.
Where is that in the peaks Jumbly?
The pic is of the Wheelstones, first time I'd been up there it's where Kate, Trio and the boys did their SS overnight bivvy.
