Morning.
Lyrics - It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
Hope you can get them finished emzap. Have you managed to sell much? Just as well work has finished for me as it will give me time to work through this online training - it's going to take a while.
Did your freezer arrive Hazel?
My knee doesn't feel too bad after running two days in a row which is good as I'd like to do the same Xmas Day and Boxing Day. We are planning an early visit to the M&S food hall and Holland and Barrett after a short walk with Lola then i expect I will walk Lola again before maybe finally getting round to putting the tree and some decorations up. I'm not sure which is going to be more stressful - icing the cake or online training, at least I shouldn't get bored!
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Yesterday's lyrics were Three Little Birds, Bob Marley and the Wailers.
Lyrics: yes
What: will see what the legs decide
Why: they're still asleep
Gonna be back to solo running this morning.
M&S food hall sounds tough going, glad we dont have one, think Tesco on Monday will be bad enough.
Lyrics - nope!
Have a good day!
Glad to hear the knee tolerated that LMH. Good luck with the new role /job - I heard there was 20 hours of online training, is that what you're doing at the minute?
Glad to hear Wabo is a bit better.
Nice pics OH, I'm sure it must be getting colder now.
I'll try to catch up a bit later.
50 minute 10k on Tuesday over Belfast hills. 7.5 miles easy Wednesday, 10 miles easy Thursday. Rest /no time yesterday, hopefully get out today and tomorrow - I'd been hoping to do a 50 mile week, so still have 26 to do
Yes for today's and yesterday's lyrics
Lmh great news on two days running! Your day sounds festive
Els good luck on solo run
What a walk later that all
Good to see you Wabo! Take it easy! Nothing to rush for!
What: in theory that was an easy run
Why: watch said so. Jaded legs wouldn't agree. No worries! Not training for anything beyond life in general!
Wabo: Do take it easy and rest and recover please:-)
What: 6.20 miles
Why: Because I could
Last hard fall
Lyrics : Yes Indeed
Longest run since day before fall and finally RHR gone to an acceptable level 44.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Muddy solo run enjoyed, only really muddy for half a mile but most of it was soggy and slippery.
Mebbe make more mince pies later.
Chick, you're so busy! Walk sounds good, might take a walk down to the harbour this eve or tomorrow night, lots of boats lit up with Christmas lights and looked nice last night.
Enjoy whatever you do!
Els - the M&S food hall is far more civilised than Tesco! Very few people about at 0830hrs. Harbour sounds nice.
Look after yourself chamolk, no point in chasing arbitrary targets. I expect you're very busy with work? I haven't added the hours up but I think that would be about right - there are 19 modules just in the SMT.
Great to see you making progress Poppy.
Exactly alehouse. We're running to make us feel better/stay healthy/eat mince pies - not to make us feel worse!
Do what feels right chicksta, you know your body best.
My knees have tolerated consecutive days running previously, but then demanded at least two days off so I'll have a better idea of whether it's progress or not tomorrow.
Xmas songs are on, tree and decorations are going up. No online training has been completed yet today.
Christmas songs playing on loop here too. I fancy blues and rock'n roll ones this year - I need a break from Last Christmas, Driving Home for Christmas, All I want for Christmas and the like Spotify is brilliant.
Pain had returned and weather not particularly inviting.
Lyrics no
Don't know how the Christmas tree got to wreck other than that there is an unsigned notice saying appreciations can be given in RNLI donations and that they will remove it after Christmas.
I'm hoping the chocolate decorations will appear soon ... 🤔😋
Sounds sensible chicksta.
Good to hear from you Wabo, hope the recovery continues.
Sorry to hear about the pain OH, glad you got out Els. Probably the best option chick, when you feel like that.
Glad the running is getting back to normal poppy
Hope the legs are recovering ale
Wise words LMH, the arbitrary targets can be motivating too though, I'm trying to get back to my previous mileage, but having some easy weeks and keeping a close eye out for any niggles. I'm pushing the miles up fairly fast, but as its just returning to a previous level it seems to be going OK. I've got a very busy week starting 25th, so won't get much running done then unfortunately
What: 5km run this morning at an increased pace as I didn't have time for 10km, then walk into town, then walk with mum friends
Why: let oh have a lie in as he doesn't far too many hours on Lucas' floor last night, we needed coffee and cake and a few errands, Christmas gathering
Wabo good to see you but take it easy please.
Lmh sewing not going well. Made some things for a lady who measured her children 18cm too big round the waist so have had to alter their skirts instead of doing my sewing
Chamolk nice to see you
Have a lovely evening all.
When we walk we wear masks even now we're both out of isolation
I won't be overdoing it trust me, I just can't.
Chick enjoy the rocking Christmas tunes
Els so good you're getting out, great recovery
Emz - well done you, must have been quite frightening at the time
Wabo - lovely to see you back, don't overdo things
Ale - sometimes the legs just don't fancy it - we've all been there!
chamolk - decent speedy set there. Agree with LMH on the arbitrary mileage targets: quality over quantity!
What - 8 x400m hills first thing: very windy and torrential rain, tough going but pleased with how that went.
Why - hills
last rest - 10/10
last hard - that was
lyric - think so
