Unfortunately the round attempt had to abandoned due to sever weather. We were unlucky. I'm gutted and the tears are coming fast and furious but I know tomorrow I'll have gotten over it. And considering we spend 20 hours on open mountain my legs are surprisingly ok today. My feet I think have "trench foot" cos of the rain; lovely image that isn't it? Bet you're glad I didn't post a photo! I plan on posting properly about the attempt tomorrow.
BIG HUGE GIANT thanks for all the comments/ support and good wishes on all the various blogs.
Thoughts, ideas, reports etc.

I'm so sorry to hear that, Aisling. I know how much you've been looking forward to it.
But you know, the Wicklow Round won't go away. There's always another time.
All the best.
Aisling you must be shattered, A really hot bath and a hug before a nice rest in your bed will help, and as Thomas said the Wicklow round will still be there. The weather has been so bad, it's been like winter this weekend! Take care.
Sorry to hear this got canned for you. A friend of mine was helping marshal the Ten Tors in Dartmoor a week or two back and they all got evacuated in helicopters! Looking forward to reading about those 20 hours.
That's a real bummer. The weather this May has been pretty crap. Just bad luck to get stuck with the worst of it. Good test of your fitness though. Sounds good if the legs are OK. Don't rush back into the training (not cos you need the rest, just to let me catch up with you guys!).
Thanks Thomas. It was especially hard because we were feeling very good and eager to continue on, but we were down to two people and that's a dangerous number on the mountains, at night and in fog.
Thanks MW for your support! The tears are still there, it's still hard to accept but I know worse things could have happened and all that.....
Thanks Stumbleguy, I've never heard of the Ten Tors! Hope your friend swere ok?! Good of you to comment! I look forward to reading your blog.
And cheers Mick, I'm so gutted. The legs are fine but the spirit is angry (if that makes any sense). My husband wants to make another attempt in 5 weeks and I would love to but it affects other things I was training for. Tony is brilliant and the only person I would want with me on the hills, but as I said before when the weather is bad, two is a dangerous number. If one gets injured the other can be on their own in a dodgy situation.
Thanks to you all for your comments, it really means a lot.
You must be shattered. I can't imagine what you went through and look forward to your next post. You're a winner in my book.
My leg is doing better than it looks. Thanks for asking.
Ellen your comments on the wicklow round blog were much appreciated. I'm glad to hear your leg is getting better. I haven't the heart to blog about the round, so am posting absolute rubbish today to keep it light (I'm still heartbroken but am ashamed cos worse things happen to lots of people evry day!) Tony has written an account over at http://wicklowround.blogspot.com/2007/05/tonys-account-of-round-copied-from-imra.html and there are some extra photos since. I posted something on http://blog.teamgearedup.com/2007/05/our-wicklow-round-attempt.html.
Thansk again Ellen.
good post :)

[b]Description[/b]
Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also [url=http://twitter.com/iuyjopg]Viagra Sales Market[/url] you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://ojagamu.freehostia.com]Viagra and Analogs[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
