Thursday 18th march - doesn't take much to make me happy

Wabo

Lyrics - doesn't take much to make me happy, and to make me smile with glee

Morning all

Right have to get back on track with good and drink! Way too much naughty stuff this week! 
What 5.65 this morning

Why run the sum

Last hard yesterday

Last rest 31/12
Have a good day all

alehouse

Morning!

Was just going to post some lyrics that I know!

Yesterday's were Stevie Wonder with I Just Called to Say I Love You.

What: perhaps a short walk, perhaps a little gardening

Why: struggling to do more

Is that 9k, Wabo? Hope birthday was more reasonable than you thought it would be.

Morning! Heavy drizzle. Back to no idea on all the lyrics!!
Long Skype with proud new parents last night. Really want to pick her up! Apparently loves cuddles!
Scones made and short run with friend on agenda....knees a wee bit stiff.
Ale hope you get going again soon.

Morning

Couple of days of naughty stuff won't do you much harm Wabo

It's sad you are missing these first days weeks for sure Els.  Shame your run yesterday was spoiled by the fall - knees stiff from that?

Frustrating Ale - you need a perspective.

Well done on another round of 10k steps Chicksta.  How long are you out there for?

Good point regarding OH's contribution Dustin. 

What: 9-10 miles?

Why: local mid-week longer run - shorter version this week

Last hard: the end of yesterday's progressive pace check - was pleased with the results km1 was 5:46, km 8 4:04 and I more or less stuck to my increase pace by a certain amount each km plan.

Last rest: 30.03.

lyrics: no

Dustin

Hiya
That's good going Hazel, progression runs are notoriously hard to get right (or is that just me?) Good luck with the MLR
Wabo - I'm sure you'll burn off the excesses soon enough
Ale - sorry to hear you're still struggling, hoping you can get out at some stage
Els - I can only imagine how heart breaking it is to be missing the physical contact. Soon. 

What - a shorter "effort" session, either a few (muddy) hills or perhaps 400s on grass
Why - Trying to maintain 3x harder efforts a week takes it out of me: used to be Tues/Thurs/Sat, I know prioritise Tues & Sat and do what I can on Thurs. Should finally admit I'm in my mid 50s...
Last rest - 10/10
last hard - today will probably have me swearing
lyric - yes

Wabo

me again
yep it was 9k alehouse, I don't think I could have made it hiller if I had tried. Felt tough today.
Dustin enjoy the efforts today, lol I know what you mean about age!!
hazel enjoy your run 
els I was the same with Cleo as she lived in Peru her first couple of years.  Trust me though the bond between us is immense.  You will love t he cuddles when they come but I know it is hard.
alehouse, have you been out yet?

Dustin

*update
Well I had more than I thought in me...3k tempo(ish) on grass/mud, followed by 6x250 hill reps (also on grass), just over 10k all in

chicksta

Els/OH: must be so hard not to be with your granddaughter right now:(

Hope the knee is just grumpy, Els.

Ale: How very frustrating. What's the next step? More tests at specialists?

You deserve some naughty stuff on your birthday,  wabo.

We've been quite naughty for the past 10 days (vino every day as this is what you do when in Spain 🍷) but as this is our last holiday for the foreseeable future, it should be OK.

Nice Hazel. You properly nailed that progression run 💪🏻

Wot Dustin said: It's not easy to get them right.

Sounds like hard work, Dustin.

Another 2 hours done here. Relieved that things are moving in the right direction.

And no to lyrics.

Sorry, forgot to answer  Hazel's question: we're flying back on Saturday. Sadly.
