Morning.
Lyrics - Have you heard what they said on the news today
It was after seeing them on there that Mark decided he'd try them emzap but it was Anita Bean's recipe but I think she's a consultant on Tom's programme so it may well be the same. Only 50g of ground almonds so you could try them with flour. You do get about - enjoy your trip out today.
Hope you have a good day at the cross country Dustin.
How is your mate Wabo? Are you going to do your race?
What: hopefully a LSR
Why: physio says to try
Last hard: working out how I'm going to do anything over the next few days in the forecast winds
Last rest: 4/2
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Let me know what they're like lmh
What: no parkrun so just our day trip.
Why: woke up feeling really sick and with hangover like symptoms, not drunk any alcohol though
Last hard: well we are going to IKEA today so imagine that!
Lyrics: familiar
Hope everyone stays upright!
Lyrics: no
Yesterday's were Bringing on back the good times, Love affair
Late post from me: have a few days work working from home marking mock test papers so got straight down to it!
What: whatever I feel like when I get to cross country
Why: will see how I feel when I get there
LMH: the Anita Bean recipe that I saw had dairy in it. Can you send a link please? Thanks!
Hope we don't all get blown away over the next few days!
These ones Alehouse: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Pt7FDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA195&lpg=PA195&dq=anita+bean+black+bean+brownies&source=bl&ots=bi61Sq8CqX&sig=ACfU3U0uG9ru81jEbYAz2yFT5U7PEcTvWQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjjwJbM_MHnAhUBRBUIHck9C0cQ6AEwD3oECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=anita bean black bean brownies&f=false
I may try them with maple syrup instead of honey next time.
If you scroll up a couple of pages the blueberry and coconut muffins are rather nice too. I have also made a version with raspberries and almonds which worked well. In fact I'd treat yourself to the book - well worth it.
My knee felt the best it has this week which was nice. It wasn't fast but I did manage a mostly comfortable long run. No running tomorrow (given weather and physio's advice) but plan to go to the gym and may even have a little swim or something.
What: 1hr 10 of WU 3x 5mins @4:30min/km CD with drills
Why: Second part surgical exam in 2 weeks and trying to keep SOME fitness during winter.
Last Hard: Nearly a year of surgical exam post coming back to the NHS
Last Rest: From Exercise 6/2 (but this was a 14 hour on-call shift)
Lyrics: No
I come with a question! My HR is really high, even on easy effort runs. It has been for years and it is a normal rhythm (so I am not worried about it), but I am wondering if it is worth persisting with really really slow running to get my HR down. If I was to do this, it would be drastic, for example my jogging to sprinting range of HR is 170 to 205 (max). To get my HR below 169 I would have to be walking. It is just not possible whilst even jogging slowly. I have had a previous lactate sub maximal test which indicated that 170-186 is 'aerobic'. I find this weird, even as a medic, but I could chalk it down to high sympathetic tone and a small heart.
so from a running perspective, should Ignore the HR monitor and run by feel and stop over thinking it. Or jump on the new fad of running crazily slowly in an attempt to see a HR decrease over time.
I will try and keep popping in as work and exam allows!
I hope everyone is well.
Good to see you Dibs! I'm not really one to answer the HR question! Stick around! You've been missed!
Chick: I'm far too old and injury prone for racing cross country! Hard enough watching!
What: about 40 minutes either slowly or very slowly
Why: watching cross country
Thanks LMH!
Hazel - I highly recommend Anita Been's Vegetarian Athlete Cookbook or her Runner's Cookbook if you'd like some recipes which include meat. The book I linked to is her latest - Vegetarian Meals in Thirty Minutes. I have five of her books now as her two earlier ones were my first go to guides for sports nutrition. A little dated now but there are still some recipes I use from them. The wind is due to hit where I am overnight tonight - gusting silly numbers by tomorrow morning, doubt I'll be walking in it let alone trying to run.
Forty minutes sounds good Alehouse.
My run today wasn't good beyond the fact that I was running and it wasn't as painful as it has been.
Weather not bad here yet - some rain, few gusts of wind, nothing out of the ordinary. Yet.
Probably the best option chick
Hope you got a run done ale
I might check out some of these recipe books - I've got one of her general sports nutrition ones, only has a few recipes though.
Dustin - yeah, the oldest two boys have done a few junior parkruns here, I try to wait until they ask to do it, rather than make them, unfortunately they haven't asked for a few months now
Nice to meet you dibs - I assume that's mrcs exams, good luck. I've got a similar issue with my hr, I tend to find it's a bit higher than recommended on easy runs - I might be running them faster than I should, but I prefer to ignore it and go by RPE instead. That said, I know others who have found hr training useful.
Lyrics no
Lmh no she was still poorly and I just couldn't face it on my own. So I did 5.4 on my own, lovely run
We're doing 5 off road together tomorrow
