Nice to see Don pop in last night
What Long run
Why Winter Miles makes Summer Smiles

Lyrics:Yes indeed
Back later and take care with the weather
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Morning.
Yes, Wednesday afternoon is mostly lecture free where I work Alehouse but the sports societies also have evening training sessions (though probably not on a Wednesday too).
Well done Pammie. I hope it's getting easier to get out?
Hope you have a good one Poppy.
Make it twelve then Oliver
What: LSR
Why: impending marathon
Last hard: don't do hard
Last rest: 31/10
Lyrics - don't believe I do.
Morning all!
What: hopefully group run this evening
why: Thusday but maybe dependent on what Abigail has in store ...
last hard: Monday
last rest: 30 October
lyrics: don't think so
Quick stop in, evening in with my man
What: 40 min turbo intervals + bum/leg strength
Why: schedule!
Yesterdays lyrics 'hotel california' Eagles
Laters !
I should have got yesterday's lyrics as a favorite of mine
LMH: good luck on your long run hope it was a good one for you
OH: Hope Abigail stays away from your neck of the woods.
12.44 miles done and dusted
the route that takes me up to Big Apple along coastal path to Limeslade cafe and beach and back but job done longest run in months and not run this route since end of August.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Morning
Ale - all the Unis we visited reserve Wednesday afternoons for sport.
LmH - that is some mileage. I hit 2,000 in 2015 this week, and I don't often manage that in a whole year.
what - easy runs with the little people
why - routine, legs tired. Another double yesterday. 6 easy at lunchtime, 5 track miles in the evening including 2x 400/300/200/100 tempo with steady recoveries.
last rest - 6 days
last hard - yesterday
lyric - nope
Nice mileage, Poppy.
3000 miles
. I've done about half of that ... crikey, but that is serious, serious mileage. Respect for not breaking down. I'm sure my body wouldn't cope 
What: just 3 miles easy
Why: recovery & bad back (went into spasm yesterday because I sat for too long at my desk and is still grumpy today)
Last hard: not yelping
Last rest: 31/10
Lyrics: yes
Afternoon all
amazing habit pammie
chick hope the run eased the back
dustin enjoy the easy run!
yesterday lyrics yes, today no
what run with club beginners later
why: because I do but I am stepping down
last hard: last night 15x1 min hard was fun
last rest: tuesday
have a good day all
Afternoon!
Wabo: 15 x 1 min is hard!
WP: that's more like it! And have you been on the Middle Ground lately?
Dustin: technically Weds pm is sports' afternoon, but as I said pressure of space is leading to an erosion of this on some courses.
LMH: cross country club at uni host a range of sessions...
Mon eve, intervals
Tues eve short run then circuit training (too popular...there were 70 there last week!)
Weds pm intervals
Thurs: steady runs (choose from 3/5/7 miles)
Sat: parkrun as part of a run
Sun a.m. long run
Lyrics: no
What: 20 minutes easy d&d after work this morning. More later.
Why: opportunity knocks. Would say that kilometres make smiles but it doesn't quite sound right.
Afternoon
LMH amazing mileage
Dunno if its easier but its come to the stage where i don't think about it I live at the bottom of a hill not long about a third of a mile to get to the top while i could run it i usually walk it now then start run gives my legs a chance to warm up sometimes they don't feel like it after a nights work.
Should have got yesterdays lyrics. Love that song
Did 2.39 miles just now there ar other hills like a really horrible one today but hills make you stronger
Afternoon
What:5.3 km followed by yoga
Why: winter miles summer smiles
Last hard: the circuits we did last night!
Lyrics: no
LHM wow!
Pammie well done for the consistency
Have a good one all.
I'd have thought the same chicksta but it hasn't happened - yet. Used to be pleased to make 1200 miles a year. Last year I did 1865 but obviously had about three months where I couldn't run at all, the year before 1705 - which I thought was good. Hope your back is getting better, mine seems worse since the steroid, I could feel it on my run and since getting back I've needed constant painkillers to stay on top of it as it feels as if it's going to spasm.
70 at circuits is a lot Alehouse.
Pammie - I usually have a little walk at the beginning and end of my runs too, I think it's good to get the legs moving.
Good running Poppy.
You're putting in some quality sessions Dustin.
I should have got yesterday's lyrics too.
Yes, LMH, 70 is too many at circuits but it is difficult to know how to manage it given that the gym is fully booked from 4 until 10 so it isn't possible to run a second session. And they have doubled the price (now £2!) to try and reduce numbers...and it made no difference, except to the bank balance!
Meant to say, whilst your miles so far this year seem high, I think you have listened to your legs very well!
On Tuesday and Thursday evenings I walk for at least 2k before I run and am sure it helps.
I also walk 5 minutes to start of track and 5 minutes back home at the end of the run I find it helps.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
It's very important to me to be able to continue to run Alehouse. I wouldn't jeopardise that just for the sake of recording miles, one of the reasons I wouldn't streak.
35 gusting 46kts so nothing special, just an Orkney breeze.
A small gale, not A big gale
7.1 D&D
Evening again!
Absolutely agree with you re the continuing to run, LMH! Certain things like bike crashes, Achilles ops and cancer bring this home! At the end of the day we run to enjoy, and if we perform well that is a bonus!
What: 30 mins run, 5.15k covered on wet, windy, puddly, leafy pavevements. Plus 2k walking beforehand.
Why: Brucie bonus.
Evening all.
LMH: I guess I could be tempted to run 12 miles on Sunday.
Well done on the 3,000 mark by the way. 
Everybody Else: Hope y'all enjoying yourselves/running.
What: 5 mile Fartlek.
Why: Training.
Lyrics: Should have gotten yesterday's lyrics. Perhaps I should get today's lyrics but no luck.
Have a good 'un.
Good evening everyone!
What: 4 mile easy
Why: Training for first HM!
Last hard: Sunday
Last rest: Technically yesterday, but I'm at drama school so had to tap dance yesterday...depends if that counts or not!
Hope everyone had a good one!
Welcome R&S
Indeed, welcome R&S! And dancing is indeed far harder than running!
Hello R&S, best of luck in training for your first half.
I knew a plumber who could tap dance... Gettin' me coat...
Haha, thanks everyone
