Thursday, 5th December 2019 - Oh the Wind whistles down
Morning!
Sorry for being awol. December madness at work is back with a vengeance and 12+ hours work days 
Lyrics: Oh the wind whistles down
The cold, dark street tonight
Will catch up properly hopefully later.
Now out for a run to keep me sane even though it's exactly like those lyrics out there.

Forecast to get windy here too chicksta - and wet later:-( Hope the run helps.
It's a pain when Garmins go wrong chamolk. Are you thinking of replacing it?
Not the one with the mudslide OH? :-)
I had a bad night coughing and have a headache and sore throat this morning but RHR is the same as yesterday and peak flow is better so no excuses.
What: short and easy
Why: feeling rough
Last hard: sleeping
Last rest: 2/12
Lyrics - yes.
Emz - well done. I am a constant source of embarrassment to my children. Am Ithe only person to have never had (or indeed want) a Christmas jumper?
LmH - correct with the rest day, looked back and it was back end of October, although several days have been an easy few ks (today for example). This week is a planned lighter week anyway - Tuesday track aside.
Sounds like you need to take it easy today, hope it's just a one night thing.
Chamolk - my garmin is shocking at getting a signal at work (Canary Wharf). It regularly takes 15+ minutes
( I don't wait - I just run and accept a 25 minute first mile)
What - coaching U11s, so nothing more than easy jogging
Why - routine, legs battered
Last rest - October
Last hard - Tuesday
Lyrics are familiar, so that's a no.
What: a run of some description this morning, fitness suite this evening
Why: not working/routine/hopefully run before the rain arrives!
Strange experience the other day: switched on the television for the local news, and more importantly the weather, and there, staring back at me was a clip of me running! I was running with Dr Hill back in 2014 when he was celebrating his 50 years of running every day; he was being awarded the freedom of his local borough on Tuesday.
Chamolk: have you tried a factory re-set? I usually find that that solves most Garmin issues.
Chamolk I was thinking the same as Ale a factory reset maybe needed?
Dustin:No Christmas jumper here either
Hazel: Oh dear that is awful to hear about neighbour.
What: 7.5 miles/kettle bell workout
Why: Because/ needed to stop at village for banana's
Last hard: Nope nothing to say
Lyrics nope
Another early cold run and very dark but back to normal with time going out.I may prefer daylight but needs must.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Sorry to hear about that news, Hazel. Probably just under 40 athletics' books. And probably around the same for other sports in total. Seeing myself on TV was a bit of a shock, especially as I looked a fair bit overweight!
What: managed to get on the anti-gravitational treadmill, so did a session of 3 x 3mins @5 minute miling with 2 mins recovery at 6 minute miling. Shame it was at 90% bodyweight.
Why: hope to do this sort of session for the next couple of months, hopefully gradually building whilst off loading a bit of impact.
Fitness suite later.
lmh glad you are doing ok ish
chick sorry its all a bit manic but the run must help!
alehouse when were you on telly???
hazel oh that is awful about your neighbour, sorry t o hear it gave you bad memories. Thanks for the GA explanation
dustin enjoy your easy day
what: 2 miles early doors followed by .7 manic run walking bethnal green to royal london
why: biopsy on face (another possible sun damage thing) no trains to whitechapel so I had to run!!
last hard: needle inface
last rest: 31/12/16
took myself to bed early last night, 7.5 hours of much needed sleep
Good news re. weight-loss, wabo. The biopsy sounds rather painful and quite scary though. Hope you're OK.
Dustin: I don't have any garish xmas jumper and I don't ever want one
Fancy being on the telly, ale
LMH: Sorry your cold is still lingering. Did you manage a run?
What: 8.5 miles
Why: sanity
Last hard: work
Last rest: Tuesday
I bet that did feel a bit strange Alehouse - and that you probably didn't weight that much then.
Hope your neighbour is ok Hazel and that you get over the shock. I love Garmins.
No xmas jumper here either Dustin. I've had the lurgy for about a week now - it just seems to be doing different things on different days.
My run was a slog today chicksta but better than not running.
Hope you can revert to daylight tomorrow Poppy.
This has now become a weekly routine since one of our swim group had her baby. As we take it in turns to look after the baby, these are now known as "BabeWatch" swims.
Last hard: this has been a long week.
Last rest: Tuesday
Lyrics appropriate but no.
Doesn't sound good Hazel. Hope she's ok.
Never had a lairy Christmas jumper although I do have a rather more tasteful polar bear jumper.
Hope you enjoyed your TV coverage AH.
