Tuesday 18th June 2019 - Some people think I'm crazy
in Training
Morning.
Lyrics - Some people think I'm crazy
It's a lovely morning here, best we are forecast for the week, and I don't have to be in work until this afternoon so I'm hoping to make the most of it with a longer run. Seize the day and all that.
What: hopefully either a MLR or LSR
Why: I want to
Last hard: sleeping
Last rest: 14/5
Yesterday's lyrics - Back On The Chain Gang - The Pretenders.

Lyrics: no
Not a bad forecast here in that it is supposed to be dry; cricket at Old Trafford today so I can see the forecast being wrong!
What: short run, longer stretch
Why: Tuesday, work, ran longer yesterday etc
Wabo - that's really upsetting to hear about Giselle's case, it's probably worth rattling a few cages...
What - club night, either track 400s or pyramids.
Why - the plan
last rest - arguably yesterday
last hard - today
Vets league last night - home fixture - and we were brimming over with runners. Managed to find both a V50 steeplechaser and a spare V35 so my services were not called upon!
Pondered non scoring 400 or 1500, but after a mile easy warm up, everything just felt a bit tight so erred on the cautious side, and just kept it easy running (get me, I've finally grown up!)
Instead applied some last minute coaching to our lady triple jumpers (neither had done it before) and then assisted judging both that and the hammer.
A wonderful evening all round though, as we managed to fill all the men's team and all but one of the women's high jump spots (we didn't have any 100m or 1500m runners two matches ago...)
As a result our ladies finished 3rd (previously 7th and 7th) and our men broke Southampton's 23 match winning streak (going back 6 years) to win by about 9 points. Just goes to show that filling the team sheet and having reserves happy to step in, really does help.
I hope it stays dry Alehouse - I am so ready for some good weather.
LMH enjoy the glorious weather while it is here!
Rain coming later, right when I race round the Olympic park!!
lyrics, Oh I feel I should!!
Hazel sounds fun later!!
Dustin what an amazing successful evening you had! Enjoy the club night.
Alehouse have a great day, I think rain is coming in later, I hope not!
Re Giselle, it is so hard to know what to do, we have a legal team who are really good so have to stick with them. I have rattled cages to get them parking etc. I just feel so sorry for them, they now need a bigger car to accommodate a wheel chair and it will cost them a bit (shortfall on what is allowed). It is all so wrong.
Anyway we will get there!!
What: race round Olympic Park
why: Elvis league, 5k this time
last hard: yesterday evening second run of the day!
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good day all
What 7.14miles
Why: Building up slowly to avoid fatigue
Last hard: Tiredness
Lyrics: Yes
Slight improvement lets hope it keeps building.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Hope you have a good race Wabo.
Good to hear that things are getting better Poppy.
About five miles from home on this morning's run I realised that my ego was writing cheques that my body couldn't cash and whilst I wanted to make the most of the lovely weather and run the route along the canal I probably wasn't really recovered enough (Yeovil feels like forever ago) but fortunately I was able to just ease back and bimble home happily.
Yoga tonight.
Wabo sounds like an awful situation.
Ale you following this?!
Have a lovely day all
Birthday girl's request
Last hard: that was
Last rest: Thursday
Lyrics no
Stayed mostly dry for run, which was as well as one of us had forgotten a waterproof.
Good to.see you Emz! Was wondering where you were! And I'm working so only just caught up on Captain Morgan and his merry men. I'm a couple of miles away from OT and it is getting darker by the minute.
