Friday, 10 January 2020 - You're old enough some people say
Morning 
Lyrics (taken from the middle)
You're old enough some people say
To read the signs and walk away
Hope you're not too bruised today, LMH.
What: whatever my hamstring let's me do
Why: it's grumpy
Last hard: that red trigger point ball (I have 3 - yellow is the softest, orange is medium, red is just ouch). Even the yellow one can inflict exquisite pain. Never get past yellow on my adductors.
Last rest: 3/1

All the hills you are running are likely to be exacerbating it chicksta. Mine is pretty constant too but like yours usually just a background grumble. Might be worth making sure your glute is firing properly too? My spiky ball is purple - not sure where that sits on the scale.
I am pretty battered and bruised after my physio's efforts yesterday. Long (for me) and probably (but hopefully not) boring training day at work today which severely limits opportunities to do anything but sit isn't going to help the way i feel. I could manage four miles if I went out in the cold and dark this morning but I'm not seeing the joy or point in that so it will be a rest day for me. i shall head out for my usual walk instead, less chance of slipping/falling over.
What: nothing
Why: see above
Last hard: not crying during physio
Last rest: 4/1
Lyrics - no.
Lyrics: no
Yesterday's were "It's Impossible", originally by Perry Como; I switched the radio on the other day to hear it being sung by one of my ex-pupils, the comedian Jason Manford who is launching a singing career, apparently.
What: short run at least
Why: work, but hopefully at least start running whilst it is still light.
Not going to tempt fate and mention my hamstrings...
LmH - hope you stay awake today. And we've alkl had those fizzio sessions, mine is Monday....
Chick - you are far from slow!
What - Easy lunchtime
Why - keeping the wheels turning + Count XC race 4 tomorrow (at Reading)
Last Rest - Monday
Last hard - Tuesday
Yesterday was just 2miles easy in the end. Sideways rain when I got to the track and a bit colder than I expected. Heart just wasn't in it for anything more. Then U11 coaching...
I had to pick lyrics in the middle as the song starts with the title - repeated every second line. And it's weather-related.
The massage balls I used today were not spiky. Here's a pic:
My spiky ball is also orange
Hope your training goes OK, LMH and that the physio's ministrations worked wonders for tomorrow's run.
Good luck at the xc tomorrow, Dustin.
Hope you managed a run in daylight, ale.
I can report a pain-free 10 miler in torrential rain and strong winds. Feeling rather smug now.
Why not
Last hard: getting out of bed
Lyrics no
LMH - the tai chi does exactly that. I am approaching 62 now so definitely aging!! And as I seem to ache so much of late (cough) I realised I need to keep my tai chi going. 4 times this month so far so I am happy with that and it felt lots easier today. Ouch to the physio!!!
Chick well done on the yoga and the 10 miles!!
Alehouse wow what an ex pupil, have a good easy run
dustin I didn't think Chick slow either. Have a good race tomorrow
Feel I need spiky balls!!
Hazel enjoy the speed session, I wonder what you decide on Sunday.....
OH, wow that must set you up so good for the day!!
What: tai chi and a couple of miles only later
why: cinema date with OH
last hard: last night, 3 miles felt so tough
last rest: 31/12/16
have a great weekend all
I plan a park run tomorrow and long off road with my mate sunday, walk tomorrow lunch time with son and family, spurs!! Oh dear it sounds busy but actually it won't be too bad.
