Morning!
Lyrics: Whenever I'm with him
Something inside
Starts to burning
Yesterday's were She's Leaving Home, The Beatles.
What: will see what the legs fancy shortly
Why: want to run before it gets too hot. The heatwave continues!
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Signs of recovery I hope but can't even start testing again until tomorrow so no signs of release, could do with a little walk!
Have a good day folks.
Ale - you must have nicked our sun today - started a bit grey and a smattering of rain...What's going on!!
Wabo - sounds like a decent Cornish trip, sorry to hear the ankle isn't playing ball
Chick - decent midweek run , nice one!
Pammie - never under estimate the benefits of a long walk, that's epic! Running going well too. Great stuff.
Hazel - sounds like a solid session in store there. Have fun!
What - undecided - Want to do some faster reps but think I'll be better off giving the legs a few more days, so maybe continuous steady hills.
Why - as above
last rest - 11/06
last hard - Tuesday/today
lyric - I believe so
That's a decent session, Hazel! And Salvador is fine or was yesterday when I visited!
I would be going for something flat and easy, Dustin!
23 degrees by the end of my run, with 27 forecast for this pm. No sign of rain here, unusually!
What: about an hour d&d but not the best run
Why: tired legs, especially hips; couldn't get up even the slightest rise as glutes were reluctant to fire; probably slightly dehydrated and was certainly perspiring by the end!
Now to watch cricket on TV or listen whilst gardening.
Dustin: Steady hills sound good. Althouh uphill sometimes triggers my hammies. Fingers crossed you're ok.
Hazel: My training plan is pretty moderate. I think I run more in marathon training but what I do right now is a lot more specific like hills, offroad stuff and weights in the gym. There will be a few tougher weeks ahead but I'm peaking at 22 miles for the longest. The course is going to be hard core so I expect to walk loads.
Well done on your speed session. Sounds pretty tough.
Pammie: Blimey! That was a super long walk. What Dustin said. All miles are beneficial. They don't have to be running miles.
Els: Do you have to stay indoors? I would think a little walk should be possible if you stay away from people?
By the way: There's a spammer on the January 9 thread. Feel free to flag the post
6 miles first thing and I mean first thing. I overslept so I had no chance to have brekkie or a coffee first. First mile felt horrid but then the body woke up and it was a good run
Headed out, whole body ached, tired physically and mentally so canned fast stuff. Did just 6x300 steady hills to tick the "out of comfort zone" box. Plus side is the hammy behaved.
Few more easier days I think.
Coaching the kids tonight, that's always a laugh.
Talking of which, the England Commonwealth Games team announced. One of the 800m runners is Ben Pattison. He started out in our under 11 group, and now look at him a 1.45.2 800m runner....
He's running the UK Champs this weekend too (along with another two of our club guys). Some cracking talent at 800m this year.
Even harder as P has had his 2 negative tests and had a walk to the beach. Ah well, at least it's sunny and warm today!
Enjoy your running folks, and hope that ankle is getting better Wabo.
