The PMS Piriformis Update

So, I thought I should let you know how both I and my buttock, are feeling this week...the week of the Boyne 10k ! The pain in the ass has eased considerably thanks to Uma Thurman my Physiotherapist, some vigorous rubbing of Voltarol gel into my right butt cheek ( self administered ), some anti inflammatories, foam rolling and stretching...you can't say I am not committed.....but certainly should be ! As the other KOK's went off to Dublin to do the 1916 5k run, I took to my local country roads and, with only Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift for company, completed 9km on my own !!!! I could not believe it and was delighted, and felt slightly more ready for the big 10k than I had previously. The butt survived the run and the anticipated twinge the following morning did not materialise...happy days !

So the KOK's have split themselves among 3 different men...Palpitations Piaras, Rapid Ronan and my personal favourite Gentle Gary .

I get snippets of what goes on, while out with them , on the nights they can actually place one foot in front of the other, but have serious concerns in relation to what exactly is going on. Apparently the Gentle Gary girls have " given their bodies over to him" for an 8 week period and there has been mention of strap ons ???? Palpitations Piaras has made 3 of the KOKs legs go to jelly and although it is presumed that he said was "nice reps" one member took it as " nice ass" and has a smile on her face ever since. Poor Rapid Ronan has had his knob broken off repeatedly by the KOK who goes spinning. She also happened to casually mention that a couple of KOK's were fit to go for a light run after t
