You pay a fortune and still they let you down! <br /><br />Jo, OR and AliB: I'm still reeling from being in the top three in this competition and it has made me hungry for more success. The fact that I wrote the story in less than 30 minutes makes the success taste even sweeter (that was a requirement of the competition). <br /><br />I'm hoping the enforced rest will help and that I can do a mini run next week!Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10680813337238122710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759802438862174539.post-20012446010347137712011-08-18T12:21:11.776-07:002011-08-18T12:21:11.776-07:00Often referred to as policeman's heel! Well wa...Often referred to as policeman's heel! Well was when they walked around! Mrs OR suffered and the blame nearly always lies with footwear. Modern trainer fibres rupture under their surface coating, invisibly. They can look fine when actually much of the cushion support has failed. Same with squash. Heavy training or running usually needs new trainers every two or three months! Expensive ones suffer as much as cheaper. Hope that helps.<br />very well done on the writing front, Jo. JKR look out!Oldrightiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03192587284458430556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759802438862174539.post-51654240575271920462011-08-18T10:20:34.916-07:002011-08-18T10:20:34.916-07:00Great achievement in the writing comp - sounds tot...Great achievement in the writing comp - sounds totally scary.Hope you are soon fit again.

Tho I'm not tempted - my stories tend to swim around in my head for along time before they make it to the computer - the thought of being presented with a subject and asked to write a story in half an hour is enough to bring on a fit of the vapours - so very well done if you can do it!JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03127111575563904349noreply@blogger.com
