Was just going to post some less appropriate lyrics, but at least I would have known those.
You got summer on Sunday Benjy; meanwhile we were putting the heating back on. May well be wet here today.
What: Pilates routine
Why: stretching that back
OH - indeed the end or an era, 60 years! I imagine there are many any happy memories.
LmH - my coach mentioned Yeovil to me which I think is early June as a possible contender for another marathon go. Need to decide how much I want it I guess!
What - club night, coaching 3x1800s. Will probably amble round.
Why - recovery phase. 3 easy miles last night
Last rest - 16/04
last hard - London
lyric - indeed
No major leg trauma here, managed stairs both yesterday and today.
Yesterday's lyrics - Left To My Own Devices by Pet Shop Boys.
10th June Dustin.
I think TKD could be interesting this evening Benjy!
Rain forecast here for later too Alehouse - and tomorrow <<sigh>>
End of an era indeed OH but I'm glad that your dad was able to stay in the house until the end. Mark's parent's had been in their house for over forty years before moving here last year.
Ok, so my foot was much less painful on getting up this morning, a small swollen area but working fine as was my ankle when I walked Grace however I can still feel the inside of my knee. Do I steel myself for another trip to the pool this morning or do I give a short and easy run a try? I'm not sure if the knee is something that would stop me running normally or if I'm just worried about it more because I've been out for a few days (I think that post niggle we're all a bit hyper aware). I would really like to be back running by the weekend and don't want to do anything to jeopardise that but my heart is sinking at the thought of more pool time.
What: either another swim or a short and easy run
Why: need to decide whether I'm over this niggle or not
Last hard: making that decision - I don't want to end up with more time off
Last rest: 23/4
Lyrics - no.
Slightly over a year ago I had a double hernia op, I was sliced right across almost hip to hip and a mesh stitched in. The recovery was awful. It was 4 days before I could get out of bed, then I had a seriously awful 6 weeks. But my frustration of inactivity mean't firstly after 10 years member of RW forum I got my post level to about 8 posts and secondly after a two weeks I decided to do what is normally a 20 min walk to Sainsburys along the old railway line trail and it took me three hours, walking with a zombie shuffle. I shouldn't have done that and on the return journey thought "why did I do this?" but my stubborness and lack of inactivity resulted in my doing it again the next day. Wasn't wise and I knew it, set me back recovery time most likely.
Still not right, get awful pain from the mesh had several revisits and they say it is fine and strong and pain I get is from too much activity at times, as it is a foreign object that has no elasticity it will not stretch like muscle so can over prolonged periods of activity start to burn and nip on the areas of join.
Emzap: I keep checking back as I simply can't wait to find out if there was a start new job VHS health and safety video to watch with extras from The Bill having objects from shelves fall on their heads and hands trapped in doors. Or am I still nostalgically stuck in the past remembering my first part-time college job age 16?
OH: That must be a very emotional feeling, when it has become so much more than bricks.
head all over the place today, dont know why
Oh benjy that sounds tough for you!! The hernia op thing I mean
mmm LMH I'd say maybe another day off?
Dustin hard core, enjoy tonight!
alehouse enjoy the pilates, it's not easy is it? I've been doing yoga about 4 weeks now and she adds some pilates!!
What: run to sons house later
why: nowhere to park so its t he best option for a visit
last hard: yesterday
last rest: 31/12/16
Got my hula hoop going again this morning, 10 mins I love it!
LMH be kind to and look after yourself. You've been through a lot so maybe time to heal. Ale: Keep up the good work.
Sunday was hot, thankfully not as hot as London and happily an hour ahead so I just made it into the 20's whereas the later runners certainly had it much hotter. First 4k uphill reflected in the first 5k. So 5k splits got steadily faster as I got more confident all was under control: 5.16-5.08-505-502 and 5.01 for last K and time of 1.45.45. I would have taken 1.50 at the start so pleased especially as took a full click to settle HR. Ended up 2449/13808 and 44/414 age group. A great weekend of over eating and drinking too! Back to teach tkd last night so no time for catching up before prepping for today's meetings.
Lyrics: Nope
What: Easy miles
Why: Seems sensible
Last hard: First 4k Sunday
Last Rest: Saturday
Oh: 60 years is a long time but you have your memories and Dad stayed till the end:-)
Benjy: That truely sounds horrific and to still give you issues But good on you for getting on with life and doing all you do:-)
wabo: Hula Hooping well done I hate the silly thing!!
LMH: I pray you were sensible but so easy to say rather than do;-)
Dustin: Sounds like you are recovering well!! how is cake consumption:-)
Ale Good luck at Pilates I used to go regular and it never got any easier;-)

Sorry Emz , didn't clock that was your patch :-) for parkrun
Tough tempo 10k tonight, 1st mile easy then 5m hardish before an ease up for the last 1/4
Take care
Worked hard on the Pilates...the toughest I've done! Spoke to physio and am going to run on the anti-g treadmill tomorrow...if the back is happy after today.
And was teaching orienteering this morning...inevitably a little slow running was involved!
