The Firmenlauf is at 1930 tonight in
Olympia Park and two of my colleagues pulled out last minute so I have two extra places which are yours for free (I think they cost 25€). The only thing is, I am leaving the house shortly before 6 so you will need to be quick. We can meet in front of the stadium around 6.20.

The heat was a killer and there was no water along the route. Plenty of space though despite 24,000 people. Good organisation and a new finding for me that alcohol-free beer tastes awful.

"Fun-run". The definitive definition of oxymoron.
So, people not only go jogging, but do it with work colleagues, and craploads of other people to get in your way?!? Bloody what?
Today is the 2008 firmenlauf - I cannot bear to suffix that with "maxi", because that sounds soooo gay. "Maxi". *shudder* Thinking of it, I actually recall Jar Jar Binks using that word in Star Wars, and he was a twat too.
Good luck to all the fools who decide to use their scant freetime to engage in a pointless activity with workchums, and I hope you all get plenty of photos for your company to put on its intranet site, showing what a great bunch of closely knit people their "team" is.
yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk, yuk.

The only things that should come with the word Maxi in front of them are "pad" and "
Dick & Twink"

one of my colleagues has just pulled out and they are trying to "talk" me into taking up his spot. My excuse at the moment is that I don't have any running gear with me.

My excuse was that I am not a wanker. I blatantly am of course, but not in the "lets all jog together yay yay yay! work is great! go team! diversity!" sort of way.

I've just found out there are "fantickets" available! Who was it that said krouts have no sense of humour eh?
Fantickets?!?! If there are any psycho extremist bin laden types out there wanting a quick way to get those guaranteed virgins, strap on your semtex vest and go to the
Olympiapark tonight. Loads of evil capitalist firms will be represented there.
