Wednesday, 15 November 2017 I wanna be young the rest of my life

Morning all :)

Today's lyrics: I wanna be young for the rest of life

Not feeling young at all today :(

At least it's warmed up a bit.  I fancy a run outside.

Yesterday's lyrics were Cry,  Godley & Creme

    Morning.

    Hope you were able to run outside chicksta.

    Glad you're feeling a bit better Alehouse.

    What:          easy miles
    Why:           sanity
    Last hard:   dealing with idiots at work
    Last rest:    15/10

    Lyrics - I think so.
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Morning
    LmH - we all have those at work...
    Wabo - I run most days but some are ridiculously easy, others ridiculously short (2 or 3km)
    Chick - Constantly hearing of those weather warnings. Apparently we're in for a cold snap. Down South it rarely gets that bad, last night for instance was t-shirt & shorts, although I did wear gloves (suffer with cold hands!)

    What - easy run lunchtime
    Why - Training last night: 5x1200, long (600) recoveries - opted for the road set rather than the grass. Hard going but once you've done 3 you have to see it through....
    Followed by coaches meeting. Looks like I'm coordinating London 2018 sessions!
    last rest - 11/9
    last hard - any movement today.

    Oh yes, there are plenty around at my work too :)

    Dustin: Wow, that sounds great

    Well, it was rather warm outside but also rather wet. It started with a slight spray which I thought was ok to run in and then gradually got more until I was in a proper downpour towards the end of my run. I was wet by then anyway so stuck it out.

    What: 6 miles
    Why: I wanted to
    Last hard: dragging my tired butt out of bed
    Last rest: 29/10

    Sounds like we had similar conditions for our runs this morning chicksta - still better than the treadmill eh?

    I'm not sure whether congratulations on the coaching position are in order or not Dustin, hopefully it's something you'll enjoy. Will that be instead or as well as coaching the juniors?

    It's mostly when the idiots make it difficult for me to do my job properly that I get frustrated.
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Impressed with the morning efforts. Running is one of many coping strategies for idiots at work. Plagued by meetings and travel and feel like I've done a week's worth already whilst still only humpday. No run since Sunday as too much on!
    What : Easy lunchtime run
    Why: need some miles
    Last Hard: Round trip to Bala followed by tkd yesterday
    Last Rest: Monday
    Lyrics: Nope and I share your sentiment Chicksta
    Ale, hope you are mending.

    Afternoon all,

    SC: I hope your run at lunchtime eased the stresses of work!
    Wabo great job on 3 mile run:-)

    What: 4 mile run
    Why: Had a head cold and I felt able to run
    Last Hard : Yesterday
    Lyrics maybe
    Last rest : Yesterday
    ALF: Always a little further
    Miles makes smiles.
    Progression
  • Options
    Afternoon (although I thought I had posted this morning!)!

    Lyrics: no, but appropriate!

    What: 2k slow run d&d (with walk breaks!); fitness suite to follow. Breathing was not good but feel I am over the worst.

    Why: half day here also!

    And I no longer do stress at work in terms of adults; classes of up to 36 children can pose a different stress though, both in terms of behaviour and the amount of marking that number of children can generate!


    Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

    Oh, rw kindly notified me of your august messages today. So sorry I didn't reply earlier... I have now (very very belatedly) replied.  I'm so sorry once again!  Thought I'd let you know here in case there was also a 3 month delay in your notifications as well!
