Morning.
Lyrics - At first flash of Eden
Cold and wet here again - I need some sun!
What: short and easy/maybe gym
Why: ran long yesterday/no work so could make time
Last hard: I don't want it to be hard
Last rest: 24/1

Not nice here either, LMH...keep reminding myself it is winter after all!
Lyrics: no
What: exercise bike/Achilles work
Why: work then back limits exercise
Got to the track last night and met a couple of newbies who were looking for the social run (It wasn't on) so joined them for a couple of laps. 5.01k with 7.52 521 5.05 4.49 splits with no sign of strain left me very happy and hopeful. Not counting feathered friends but....
What: Nothing
Why: Learning to be sensible - maybe
Last Hard: Again it was sleeping through last night
Last rest: three days ago
Lyrics: No light striking
Have a good day all
SC - all sounds positive
Wabo - Yes Thursday comes round quickly, not as quick as Mondays do though :-(
I'm with Gobi on the dress lightly for running. Said before that I get warm very quickly so even if I think about a second layer, I regret it before a mile is up. My only concession is gloves, my hands get very cold.
what - steady lunchtime
why - base
last rest - 15/12
last hard - going to be this weekend: Hants XC tomorrow, 20 mile training "run" Sunday.
lyric - nagging away at me...
What: another mile
Why: x-country tomorrow
Last hard: this week's running hasn't felt easy
Lyrics: nope
That sounds very positive SC
Have a lovely Friday all
dustin that's the truth! Enjoy the steady
emzap, hope tomorrow goes well
SC that sounds so good happy to hear
alehouse enjoy the bike and achilles, hopefully
lmh enjoy short and easy
what: something later, not sure
why: disturbed night last night feel wrecked
last hard: last night
last rest: 31/12/16
have a great weekend all!
Looking at your Sunday with a bit of envy/longing Dustin! Foregoing Wiltshire 10 this weekend, which thankfully I haven't entered but was in the plan. VLM or not VLM. I think I know the answer.
Is your back feeling any better at all Alehouse?
Horrible when you don't sleep well Wabo, hope you have a better night tonight.
Sounds like a hard weekend Dustin.
It takes a lot for me to overheat, which comes in very handy when the weather warms up for races. The under active thyroid does come with an increased intolerance to cold so I'm guessing that may be at least part of the reason.
why: Had intended a road loop but with a fine dusting of snow and a nice winter sun, the hill was too good to resist.
last hard: today, still not managing to get any speed
last rest Wednesday on train
lyrics:no
sorry to hear about your daughter's svt, Wabo
Sorry to hear that wabo. She's classified as urgent and still has to wait two months???!!! That's ridiculous. Keeping my fingers crossed there are no more episodes between now and then. Must by horrifying.
SC: Very positive indeed. Easy does it though.
Enjoy your respective xc races, em and Dustin.
I'm always freezing at the start of a run (in winter that is) but usually heat up after 4 or 5k and then sometimes find I overdressed. But I'm always always cold for the first hour after a run. Even on a hot day. No idea why that is.
What: Short treadmill blast and some kettlebells plus stretches
Why: cold, windy AND slippery here (freezing fog)
Last hard: not being able to do what I wanted this morning which was to run outside
Last rest: 17/12
Lyrics: no
Wabo echo Chick, 2 months for "urgent" is a bit crazy.
I have been given a secondment opportunity and from Monday will be working from Cardiff, about a 80 min commute by train. (bizarre as when moved to Swindon last year it was to get rid of my commute)
Don't know how it may affect my running yet
2nd rest day of the week as have Bramley 20 on Sunday
