The Hyde Parkers are no more. We are now the SAS which stands for Sweet As Swans, the Swan being the most important part of the evening, i.e. the pub.
Four of us braved the weather and did 5 miles in the pouring rain then dived into the pub to rehydrate on beer, as prescribed by this month’s Runner’s World magazine which says beer is better than water after a run. Yay.
And if there’s anyone reading this that can get to Speaker’s Corner on a Tuesday evening by 6:30, come and join us, the more the merrier.

Cool -wished I could drink with the Swans!
Not going to be able to meet up tomorrow I’m afraid :-/ see you soon.
Ooh that’s a tempting invite – I could always just turn up in time for the recovery drink. I definitely noticed that article in RW.
Get yourself down there then. Or just come and see us in the Swan in Bayswater Road and pretend you did a lap but had just missed us. They sell Stella too.
I am training now for the 3k event and would like to finish in the top 20 or so.
