Right. Down to business.
Easy 5 in the morning then no doubt an agressive club run p.m. as we all try to beat ourselves up over tonight's results.
Oh yes we'll start off easy thinking about the 12 stage relays on Saturday but them someone will get a 2nd wind, then a couple of others will up the tempo and we'll be up to eyeballs out within 4 miles.
How I love running. And I also love sleep so I'll go and get some now.

Summary of the past week or so:
Last week, only one run, but it was a stunning 12k in Barcelona. (rest of the time sightseeing and nursing a hamstring tweak)
This week:
Sunday: 3.5 undulating miles @7 minute pace.
Monday: rest (and first cuckoo)
Tuesday: 3.5 miles fell (fun)- the buzzards are getting very bold, and heard the first chiff chaff.
Wednesday: 7.5k hilly, road and footpaths. Managed to suprise myself by keeping just sub 8 minute miling, despite changing my planned route to take in a long, steep track and field.
Thursday: Probably 10k ish, with the club in Mortimers Forest. It may be gentle, but we have the sort of loonies who like to go completely off trail so I doubt it.
Yes, I'm really enjoying my running this week.
Well, I don't post often at the moment, but I do go on a bit when I get started!
Night night
What: Still feeling a bit viral. So nothing.
Instead .... five minute drive, 45 minute flight, one hour coach journey, three hour flight, two hour car journey. Yup, I'm off to Blighty for a long weekend. See y'all next week.
Just finished my 12hr shift so off to bed!

Last hard: Yesterday
Last rest: Wednesday last week
Reason = Migraine
Was going to do an early run today but didn't wake up. Can't go this evening Revd Dr Ice Man is playing badminton and I need to be at home looking after the kids.
Currently fed up Ice Maiden
Ice Maiden - Migraines are hell, aren't they? Can't you manage a mile or two once RDIM gets home?
Me:
What: Last night's 4 miler
Why: Coz I did tonight's 2 miler last night as I was home late.
OR - maybe I'll opt for a swim, as my shins feel very tender. The orthotics are doing wonderful things for my hip, but the changed action is telling elsewhere. Gradual build up of mileage required.
I am one hour ahead of you here in Poland
Did a workout in the gym yeasterday as it was raining here all afternoon - 30 min threadmill hill run, weights and abs. Resting today, tomorrow a long easy run in the forest as I took a day off. Cannot wait! Trying to build my miles....
right after lazing since London, its back to work today in more ways than one, (and at least I can take a break from putting up my fence!).
What : easy 6 miler
Why : Its been so long I can't remember what this running larks about
Last Hard Run : FLM (seems ages ago)
Last Rest : Yesterday
Have a good one all
PB. I'l reply for Nessie, Inverness is the North you know. Northern English folk may call themselves from the North but those of us in the North of Scotland know the truth.
Today - Track session gotta get some speed in those legs.
Northern PPB.
I actually did all three workouts yesterday. My run was probably the slowest 1/2 hour ever, but my heart rate was at a good training-type rate.
What: club swim (done), club run
Why: cos I'm hoping that going to club sessions will make me faster. Also they need someone to make all the rest feel fast!
Last Hard: yesterday, but I got through all of it.
Last Rest: Sunday and I can't wait for the next one!
You're losing it, PB!
A definitely far North Nessie.
Have been absent for a few days - from here and from training. Have had a cold/sinusitis which laid me up in bed all day yesterday - seems like immune system is still knackered. ho hum.
No training today - but hopefully will continue with garden
Am off to Scotland at the weekend - Isle of Skye for 4-5 days rest - no phones, no 'net access, no TV just me and the Mr and a couple of books and the lovely Skye countryside. Can't wait. Back on Friday next week.
later gators
What:was going for a cycle, but it's going to definitely rain and I don't fancy cycling in the rain. So will go swimming instead.
Why:running is out today as I'm being good and not running with sore thighs caused by Tuesday's 10 mile walk and 12 mile LULWORTH run PB!
Last hard:Monday's race and Tuesday's cliff run.
Last rest:yesterday
What: 8 miles.
Why: just to make sure I still could. Even managed some faster bits in the last two miles. Droopy left foot at the end, but that's more a problem for walking than running, oddly enough.
Cath, have a good time away from it all! Hope the cold goes away.
What: 5 Miles Fast ish
Why: Schedule says so
Last hard: Tuesday Speed Session
Last rest: Yesterday
Last long: FLM
Swanage Bay, Old Harry, Poole Harbour = discordant coastline.
(field trips long ago - and it is gorgeous in those parts)
Sorry, where was I?
Oh yes, good morning all, especially Icey with the migraines - much sympathy!
What: I may have to skive off work to get my seven miles in, cos I've got no time later.
Why: Starting to take root.
Hard: Monday race.
Rest: Tuesday (mild cricket yesterday).
Have fun.
Enjoy your break Cath!
If anyone is interested there are a few pictures of some of us taken by RichK on the Easter Bunny thread in Events. Just a few more faces to go with the names!
what: rest. Legs are not recovering from Sunday.
Have a great day!
Why? I'm asking myself the same question.
Last hard. Tuesday
Last easy. Yesterday (Pudsey 10k off-road bit)
Last Rest..Friday!!!
Why: fast club run last night (felt fab) and quite tired
Last hard: last night
Last easy: don't know
Last rest: Monday
Have fun today everyone!
What have I done? Have been quietly congratulating myself for not to committing to another marathon immediately, log on this p.m. and find myself agreeing to enter a team for Abingdon marathon with lamb and Norfolk Dumpling! They made me do it sir.
Have a nice time in Skye Cath, that's North for most people.
Sorry about your migraine Ice maiden, really washes you out doesn;t it.
What: swim this am, bike ride later.
Why: er, being sensible with flm recovery and doing national relays on Sat.
last hard: flm
Last rest: Sunday.
Having a bit of a nightmare at work at the moment. Yesterday had planned 40 minutes turbo trainer but could only really squeeze in 30 minutes. So did five minutes warm up then repeated three minutes hard three minutes easy - pushing HR to 170 on the hard bits. Ended up eating my dinner whilst on a conference call between 10pm and midnight!
Today: Gym session
Why: No disasters yet and no late conference calls so should be ok....fingers crossed.
Last rest: Last week some time.
Last Hard: Sunday
