Saturday 15th December 2018 - You were waiting for an answer

Morning.

Lyrics - You were waiting for an answer

We have a weather warning for snow and ice too Alehouse but none actually forecast for us. Supposed to feel like -4 for most of the day though, I think my sleeping bag jacket may get its first wear of the season. Hopefully tomorrow will be warmer as forecast.

What:            short and easy/possible gym
Why:             have a friend staying so will work around them
Last hard:     keeping warm yesterday was hard
Last rest:      27/11

Yesterday's lyrics - Road Runner by Aerosmith.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

  • Morning!

    Through the window it doesn't look too bad, but my weather app says the current feel like temperature is minus 8, and by lunchtime -12 with 88 kph winds. I hope they are wrong! It is supposed to snow by 9 a.m. Send it Don's way, I say!

    What: a gentle parkrun with lots of clothing on!

    Why: it is cold! Probably wouldn't go but meeting some of the uni kids (who will probably be more sensible and stay in bed!)


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

    Morning

    What: driving to Kent
    Why: meet a new memebr of the family (not the newest though, we're getting 4 new babies in 3 months)
    Last hard: will probably be the M25!
    Have a lovely day all

    Morning!

    Enjoy your weekend, Emz!

    What: 6.5k including parkrun in just under 25. Bitterly cold for the first k or so: hit my face and teeth particularly. Thankfully it was dry, and still is. Perhaps Don has indeed received our snow.
    Steady first half and then pushed the last couple of k a little.

    Why: did ask myself several times. And no uni runners.

    Meant to say I don't know the lyrics.

  • Slow parkrun (30:01) #7/12
    Why: 30 gusting 60 mph
    Last hard: see above
    Last rest: yesterday
    (Gave yoga a miss due to hand injury)
    Lyrics no

    Duvet jackets have been standard wear here for a while - inside as well as outside!
  • Crikey, have you no heating, OH ;)? And what have you done to your hand?

    Biting Easterly winds here too and snow forecast for tomorrow. I have race no. 2 of my winter series. Hey ho. Not a chance of freezing around in vest and shorts - I've decided on thermals, 2 layers of merino plus a lightweight sleeveless windbreaker, hat and gloves.

    Lovely baby boom, em. Hope the M25 is not too bad. That's one thing about England that I was glad to leave behind.

    LMH: enjoy your weekend with friends

    Office Xmas party last night and I felt like death today. Kicked myself out into the cold for a 6 miler to sweat off the excess alcohol :D it was good to let my hair down a bit last night though. Didn't even have that much but then it doesn't take much to knock me out...

    What: 6 chilly miles
    Why: penance
    Last hard: hangover
    Last rest: 9/11
    Lyrics: no

    Have a fab weekend, all. Anyone else racing tomorrow?
  • Hope the journey went well and you have a nice time emzap.

    I can't be doing with being cold in the house OH.

    Hope the weather isn't as bad as forecast tomorrow chicksta. Horrible here this afternoon - cold, wet and windy. I'm hoping the rain goes through before we need to walk to the restaurant.

    I find it really hard to get moving at any speed when it's cold like this Alehouse.

    I may designate tonight as my xmas party as we're off to the Indian (at my friend's request). 
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Evening all

    back to out door running today after a few efforts on the treadmill following Op.

    So a steady parkrun , number 449...... in 23:43, no dramas

    followed by an early Christmas day with R&S as R is working Christmas day in A&E, so feeling fat after roast lamb and all the trimmings

    Take care all
