I can imagine what that'd do to my gasping lungs!<br />

Nice going on the mile PB Dougie.<br /><br />Owen,<br />Don't worry about John. He's pretty much a stinker.<br /><br />Going to put off the 300 'til tomorrow. Still feeling the effects of the 3k relay from yesterday.<br /><br />Speedy

Yay Krysta & Helen! Great to see Taff 1 in 2nd place! With times that tie and both being FH's, how does the thing choose which one of you gets in Taff 1 and which one in Taff 2??<br /><br />I'm dancing with pom poms! Go Taffs & Taffettes!

At the moment it's just dependent upon how mySQL decides to sort them (the only ordering clause currently is by result value). I'll add submission time to that, though, I think.

Had a crack at the 300m yet Paul? You should use that adrenalin rush from your victory at rugby yesterday, because it wont be around again for a long time!

You've not been helped by injuries though have you? I think it's the Jocks we've got to worry about after their performance yesterday and I'm sure there'll be a French backlash.<br /><br />I'll be having a go at the 300m later this week after I've had a bit of a rest. I've got a bit of a recovery period now - only got hour rows for the next 2 weeks <br /><br />Anyway I don't need rugby to motivate me, when I've got a big 17 year old ahead of me in the rankings
