How To Meet Single Men - The Definitive Answer
I have discovered that special place where single men lurk.
So if you are a woman - of any age - who is looking to find a chap, then I think, I believe, that I have the answer.
There are two (very) slight problems.
But nevertheless: if you are a woman who yet yearns for that soul-mate, then here’s where you’re going to find him.
It’s all perfectly simple.
I made this extraordinary discovery a couple of weeks ago when I was running the Pilgrim. It’s a wonderful canter through some of England’s most scenic countryside on the North Downs Way. The run is what is technically known as an Ultra - 33 miles out and then 33 miles back the next day.
We spent the night in a large, drafty school gym. A lot of people in there - I guess nearly 200.
And THAT’S when I made the connection. Blokes! Fit blokes! Fit single blokes! Damn nearly 200 of them - and outnumbering the women by AT LEAST ten to one. Imagine that! And all these guys: all very perky; fizzing with endorphines; more than happy to chat; not a porker amongst them: and a lot of them, I realised, not only single but… HUNGRY FOR LOVE!
So - if it’s single guys you’re after, Ultra-marathons are the way forward. Definitely
That’s the first problem. Takes a bit of time building up the stamina to run Ultras. Still - only took me about a year.
I never said it was going to be easy.
Problem number two: Now, very generally speaking, I would say that, ahhhh… ultra-runners are a little odd. Kinda obsessive. And that although they can be very, very chatty, they tend to like chatting about the same sort of things, and that, most usually, is their running.
So take a tip from me: if you get into a conversation with these guys, you have to take control. Do not let these ultra-runners start banging on about their races. You HAVE to derail that train before it picks up a good head of steam.
There we have it! How to meet single men. If you’ve found a better place where single chaps are lurking, then I would so love to hear it!
