previously on TTLG Sports NewsOkay so after totally failing at training on my own, I decided in a brief moment of sanity to sign up at a local gym and start running and training again in a more organized fashion, on a year-long plan to run the (
http://www.toughguy.co.uk/) Tough Guy 2012 Challenge. (That's where the sanity stops.)
While I'm completely discarding the 2011 run, as I'm nowhere near fit enough for the whole thing, I'll kick off the festivities with Barcelona's (
http://www.ocisport.eu/buffepicrun/es_buffepicrun.php) Buff Epic Run* on the 19th to see where I'm at. (read: wreck myself physically and emotionnally. :p)
So to the previously interested parties, we're doin' it or what? WHAT SAY YOU, SONS OF GONDOR?
:D
* sorry, the site doesn't seem to exist in English, only ES and CAT :erg:

Dude, you know I'd love to but my epic failure the last time has left me in even worse shape than before. Yeah, it's a year away and yes if I'm ready for it I'll go for it. I am working towards it but, meh, the chances are slim.

I know what you mean, I also had to recover from a few mistakes before thinking about starting again...
One year is a long time, we'll see how it goes :thumb:

I just saw an Episode of Viva La Bam where Bam Margera and the CKY boys tried this. If you get a chance to catch the episode, it's a good way to check out this sucker for those of us too far away to watch or participate.

They tried Tough Guy? This I must see.

I need to get in shape otherwise I'll be dead or wishing to in a couple of years....meep!
Trying my best, bossman...
And good to you, raphy :)

Cheers :) The rationalization is that I need to get in shape anyway, so I might as well do it with style :p

Why do you all need to get in shape all of a sudden, when we're closing in on christmas? Eat more lebkuchen, damnit. Get fat and cosy. Then mourn your sins and swear to be better as the new year begins.
