Hi Everyone
I thought it might be a good idea to have a place where we can post our CR Birthday Greetings.  Please feel free to give this thread a bump whenever a birthday of note occurs.

So, Happy Birthday to our inaugaral Birthday Boy - Plu!!

Plu - this is probably a bit late but I hope you had a great one!

[Horrie]

Happy Birthday Pluvio. Now you are going beyond.

[plu]

Hi all,

Yep the big 45.  I would like to think I am only half way there with a big negative split coming up.  

I celebrate each  birthday with a special run.  Last night I decided to start a run at 44 years old and I finished it when I was 45 years old after midnight.  


If I can hold my fitness I might be able to creep up the age category positions    :D  ... in a few decades.

I believe I read a certain Professor had his birthday this week as well.  Happy Birthday Prof.

Thanks Cirque and others .

cheers Plu

[Rooster]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PLU!!   :D  

That reminds me, we were given a gift for you from Virtual Runner, let myself or Truckie know when we will see you next so we can pass it on.

Cheers, AK  ;)

[plu]

Hi All,

Thanks for the best wishes and all the subtext to the comments.

Its a birthday 365 days a year when I come across running books.  

This is a good thread...bring on someone else's birthday.

Maybe we should take this thread one step further and create a wiki page on the Australian Run Guide with birthday dates on it...no years if you are concerned.

What do you think?

Cheers Plu

[Owly]

and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO (drumroll please)

  :D  SPARKIE!   :D  

Happy Birthday my friend and fellow dag.  If it weren't for your (and Aki's) welcoming emails when I first posted on coolrunning I'm sure I wouldn't have persisted in trying to get my head around all the information contained here.

And of course where would we be without you to direct us to the next pub on drinks nights?   :)  

Cheers to you unofficial running advisor #1!

[miners]

[tiger angel]

Have a great birthday, Sparkie.

Did you get any of those fancy new throwing tools??

[vat]

Happy birthday, chaps.  Have a good one.

Plu - love the concept of the midnight run to see in the transition.

[plu]

Happy birthday Sparkie.  Now an age related 10km PB is a little easier for a while.

Cheeers  Plu

[omni]

Happy Birthday Sparkie - hope you've had a fantastic day.

[chonky]

happy bithday to all of the above.
i am a firm believer in running your age in kilometers on your birthday.
was there any takers?  
plu i did like your idea of running  
from 44 to 45 years old. you must have been tired after running for a whole year non stop.
all the best
chonky

[Blue Dog]

Woof!

[Uncle Dave]

Happy Birthday Sparkles...

Just remember, if Mrs Sparkie doesn't give you a birthday bellydance, Truckie'll be more than happy to oblige!    :)  

Unc!

[Bandanna]

Many happy returns Sparkles - may all your running dreams come true!

That's why I am so looking forward to Six Foot Track   ;)

[Luckylegs]

Many happy returns, Sparkie!  Remember you must blow out all those candles with one breath! You should still be able to do it;  however, there comes a time when there just isn't enough breath in the lungs to get the lot in one go!   :rolleyes:    LL

[Sparkie]

Thanks everyone - particularly the calendar observant Owl.  Unfortunately, didn't run 35km today - spent 2 hours on the physio bench for a grade 1 hamstring tear - should be right by the weekend though.

Mrs Sparkie is a bit under the weather, so no belly dancing.  However, she felt that Uncle Dave's style was more reflective of her own than Truckie's.

Discovered that over 35's is a whole new world of racing, so this is one milestone I am happy to pass.

[frankie]

My birthday is on the 15th of October

[plu]

Happy birthday rr for the other day.  Great month this one.

Cheers  Plu

[Dom]

Plu - you're right it is a great month!

My birthday was on the 18th Ocotber and Mrs Dom-to-be's birthday is on 21st October


WARNING HIJACK!: For those QLD-CRs who are interested Mrs Dom-to-be is going to become Mrs Dom in a week's time (Octber 27th). We leave tomorrow for Mauritius- bring it on, can't wait!!!!  :D    :D    :D    :D

[miners]

A very worthy hijacking Dom, and happy birthday wishes to both of you!!  I have the feeling this thread will become a social pages type of scene, so I think something like a wedding would probably qualify  ;)

oh, and happy birthday to rr too!

[Cirque]

What a lovely reason for a hijack!
Happy Birthdays and Wedding for Dom and the soon to be Mrs Dom.

Congratulations guys - I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

rr - I hope you had a great birthday too.

[Tesso]

Happy Birthday Dom!  Hope you had a great day.  And to Mrs Dom-to-be for tomorrow.  

Can't go wrong there, two Librans    B)    .

Enjoy your honeymoon.  Remember to save a little energy for Kurrawa to Pt Danger    ;)  .  

And happy birthday to rr too.

[plu]

Hi all,

At the rate we are going we might have to create a birthday thread by star sign.

Congratulations Doms(s)

Plu

[Dom]

Thanks guys. We leave in a little over 12 hours!!!

I'll gets some photos organised afterwards. Might need to temporarily use the coolrunning website to host them for you - they can be deleted after. Perhaps will need to talk to KT about that. Failing that an anonymous webpage at work might mysteriously appear........

I'll be offline for a while.

tesso - don't worry Kurrawa to Pt Danger has now got pencilled in status. Just debating about whether to do the full 50km or whether to impose myself on some poor soul in the relay. Perhpas we need a thread started quick smart. If its the full 50km then Mrs Dom might get her first outing as crew   :D

[CathyP]

Happy birthday all you October folk.  When / where's the party?

[courtlylove]

Happy birthday to Eat 'Em for next Sunday (30th October). He will be celebrating by doing the Arthur's Seat run.

CL

[courtlylove]

By the way - I think plu's idea for a birthday thread by star sign is a good one.

CL

[EatEm]

Thanks Courtly but didn't make it to Arthurs Seat - did not want to push the left leg to hard - although I am sick of doing sweet nothing - I miss my running ...

[miners]

... but still a happy birthday we hope?

[EatEm]

Always - scored the Lance Armstrong book "It's not about the bike" and while walking thru Myers yesterday spotted some Kayano XI (white/yellow) reduced to $179 - less 25% off sale means I got them for $135 ....  :D

[Ultraphil]

Happy birthday Eat'em. You will enjoy the book!

[plu]

Happy Birthday Eatem.

As cathp said roll on November Birthdays.

Cheers  PLu

[Cirque]
