BULLET HOLE BARNYA STRIKES AGAIN!!!<br />
<br />
Going against his own proclaimation of 'no action'<br />
I would like to confirm that another cheeky snog<br />
was accomplished by Barnya last night, all due to<br />
hiss rigorous...er..regime.<br />
<br />
He didn't finish the race, but apparently he <br />
still came the fastest! -
I don't remember anything but apparently she was butt ugly.Γ Good night though.<br />
<br />
A fresh assault begins today with a run this arvo, will report back if I survive.Γ And I have not finished my thesis sadly, as evidenced by the email I just got from my supervisor with a list of comments and suggestions from here to Timbuktu. -

Barnya in a fine run of form due to his new physical apperance.<br />
<br />
In the latest news he was rumoured to have put away some<br />
French bird in the Journal section of the Public Library.<br />
<br />
Big Ups to that.<br />

you're either Barnya or his fluffer, this is a serious forum, no need for the updates on his sex life thanks. -

"Moment" being the operative term. -
I apologise for Barnsey, you can't entirely blame him though, he recently broke up with his woman-thing and has been living vicariously through me since then...slim pickings at the best of times.Γ But no, I didn't put away a French bird in the library.Γ I don't doubt that that sort of thing does go on in the public library thoughΓ
<br />
<br />
Barnsey is actually a real person, the pride of Waikaia in fact.Γ I believe Canerbry has met him although he mightn't remember it.Γ I thought it was pretty clear we're not the same person because he makes the occasional reasoned and well-informed rugby related comment....<br />
<br />
All I will say is count yourselves lucky you just have to read his comments on the fern, I have to put up with his antics week in week out.<br />
<br />
Sunday 24 September 2006:<br />
<br />
8km run in the glorious spring sunshine.Γ Not as comfortable as I was before my hiatus but I'll get back into it every day now or close enough to it.<br />
<br />
Breakfast: none<br />
Lunch: beef curry and naan bread<br />
Dinner: pasta bake with meatballs<br />
<br />
Weekends are always a nightmare eating-wise.Γ Unless I go to the supermarket and buy all the ingredients to cook something just for myself, which is wasteful, I don't have much choice but to eat processed shit.Γ My mother is overseas and hasn't sent me a care package in months.Γ If you feel like sponsoring a starving student by sending him vital sustenance to get him through his gruelling day, PM me.<br />
<br />
Oh and Brakdov, good luck man!Γ I can't even think about running 42km, one day though I'll get there. -
Nutri-what?<br />
<br />
Nah I've got cereals and wholegrain and bread and shit, but I'm really not a morning person.Γ It's mentally sapping enough just to get up and stumble into the shower without having to worry about making food as well.Γ It's all about setting up a routine in the morning and sticking to it, then it's easy, I've been trying to get to bed earlier and up earlier recently but shit it's hard when it's so damn cold.<br />
<br />
It's not all plain sailing being a student Nick, there are plenty of hidden costs to worry about.Γ For instance it was my turn to buy the couches this week.<br />
<br />
And further to Barnsey's updates, I must admit I've sunk pretty low at times in the past, but it'd be a truly horrible day if I resorted to assuming a different online identity to talk up my non-existent sex lifeΓ -
Fuck - doesn't matter what time you get up. Eat the cereal. Mrs TA never used to eat breakfast until I basically forced her into the habit ("sex or breakfast - your choice" <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />) and found her energy levels and shit picked up right away.

Well Barnya, I made it. 4hrs 20mins so hardly had the record-book writers worried, but still happy to make it around. Last 10km were killer. Temperatures in Berlin got up to 26 degrees on the day so was getting pretty warm by the time I finished. Puked my ring out about half-an-hour after the finiah, think I had drunken too much liquid as a shitload of liquid came out. Feeling fine the next day, legs still a bit sore today (2 days after) but otherwise fine. Will be able to drink it up tomorrow night in Liverpool before and after the game!

Champion!<br />
<br />
I'm glad this thread has inspired someone...<br />
<br />
Enjoy the game tonight mate, you've sure earned it and it should be 3 points in the bag for us. -

So in a sad post-script to this tragic tale, I just measured out my exact 8km training route on Google Earth...turns out that it's actually closer to 9.5km!!!Γ That means I was far fitter and running much faster than I'd assumed, and my longest training run was in fact 19km, only 2km short of a full half marathon.Γ Well whaddaya know?<br />
<br />
But not to worry, team.Γ I get back to Dunedin first week of January, whereupon the Barnya Half-Marathon Challenge will enter its second season.Γ This time there may even be guest appearances, public tabloid bust-ups and nudity, but then again there may not.Γ Stay tuned. -
Oh, I'm not falling for that one again.
