Morning! 

Today's creature related lyrics: I've got flowers and lots of hours to spend with you
So go and powder your cute little...

Lines 3&4

Yesterday's were The Lion Sleeps Tonight, which I'm sure everyone knew. Wonder how many knew it was originally by The Tokens. I didn't!

What: something short

Why: being careful still. Perhaps a bigger test tomorrow.
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

    Morning

    Although I knew the song I did not know or even heard of The Tokens!

    What: LSR-shortened as tapering
    Why Race on Sunday
    Lyrics No
    Last rest 24/6
    Last hard: Last weeks treacle

    That felt very short today and a nice distance;-) 7 degrees which is the coolest it has been.
    ALF: Always a little further
    Miles makes smiles.
    Progression

    No to The Tokens and today's lyrics.

    7 degrees isn't very summerlike WP!

    Did you get your quiet afternoon yesterday Els? Banana bread went down ok with our visitor, was a bit sweet I found.

    Busy day yesterday Dustin and good work on the track.

    What: progressive 18k and 3k CD
    Why: looking for a decent HM effort
    Last hard: that was, had actually set out with the full HM progressive in mind. Ran out of beans and was achy from yesterday's cycling
    Last rest: 30.06.23

    Afternoon! 

    I'm sure that at least one of you, probably WP, know the lyrics! Sing the line next to today's date! 

    Sounds a decent run, Hazel!

    Suddenly it is no longer summer, WP and Els! Cool and windy here so wore traksters, a thick winter long sleeved top and a rain jacket for my 20 minutes. Didn't rain; that is saving itself for when I go to cricket this afternoon.

    No we had our summer, a warm week in June. Today was proper Orkney weather with a couple of hypothermic folk withdrawing from the marathon. Think they should be warned to at least consider having a jacket on them, folks in vest and shorts when it's chucking it down and driving wind at the back end of the race particularly vulnerable. I was pleased to find an old workman's high viz jacket in the house between my 2 shifts - the last of which was v cool and wet so was a bonus! Still some decent times for the conditions! Lust home now and a bit shivery!

    Hiya
    Sounds nasty Els, it was another summer day here...albeit a little cooler.
    Ale - sounds like Mancunian weather returned for you too..

    What - 7.5 miles on trail - a summer LSR!
    Why - run with pals
    last rest - 09/07
    last hard - Yesterday
    lyric - dont think so.

    Looks like fun, Els! Pouring here now but stayed dry for cricket, but very windy. 

    Hope Chick is ok.
