Pussy said that she would be away from Cornwall when I was ther, but I don't know when she is due back.
EBF was sweet and gentle today.
Bullfinch
So what did you slip in her food to make EBF so gentle? She must be getting used to you and being ridden regularly must help, says me, who has no idea what she is talking about!
Back from gym
2 miles on treddie 0 to 8.4km per hour in 25 minutes (gradually)
2 circuits of weights
5 minutes (fit test) bike it measures your heart rate tells you to pedal faster or pedal slower with hills and i mean hills too
2000 metres on rower
i think that was enough
No run this morning but am planning to go this evening!
Cass had her first trip to the vets today. The kids went back to school but not til 11.00!?!
By the time I had done Tesco shop, put it away and had lunch Cass was awake again so I have done NO work today! I hope we get into a routine soon!
Have skimmed the thread but have probably not noticed what peeps are doing so :
I hope you are all ok, JJ 3.9999 thasts good.
Benz hope you have improved since your last post, hugs.
Ceal are you tapering for a run?
Bye for now, ogg on the school run.
typing bit dodgy today!
Ceal. EBF will get used to me but the fitter he gets by being ridden, the harder he will be to control. When you think that, when race fit, he can average 30 mph over 3 miles and jump 20 fences, there is a huge amount of power in his frame.
I think I just frightened myself.

was in gym for about 1 hr 20 minutes
Its enough for now
I saw a very interesting race today. It is the Ropsley RAID 15 offroad run. Anyone up for it then??? I think I will be doing it as it sounds lovely.
I posted in the Events thread and had a positive answer.
Ceal, I did all the machines but concentrated on arms.
Well, I did it. I am in.Used the online service.No regrets...I think.
If you go to their website there are some photographs.
Yes it looks a very interesting race that I am sure in time it will become very popular. Going on the last two years a very small field, which in itself is very attractive. The times were not especially fast, except for a handful, another attraction. But I am not sure, where I will be living at that particular time. It would not be out of the way from here to Grantham, but how long will it take you to travel there? I am being very negative aren't I. But that negativity is expressed towards my own cirumstances not yours. I am not so keen on racing when it is cold, but, hey, Decamber need not be too cold. I will certainly bear it in mind and it looks like one can enter later on perhaps as it is not as yet a hugely supported race.
Sorry to hear about yer gloomy meeting JJ, meetings I take are short affairs too, 1 hour max
hope everyone is well
Have you purchased your neoprene knee wrap yet, sounds good! Is your appointment with the knee investigator at 4.00 tomorrow?
Sorry to hear you were subjected to a long meeting, yawns are heard from ceal at such a prospect. You may be surprised to hear from my long postings that I have very little to say at meetings, I just want them over as soon as poss.
Sorry I missed you Bullfinch.Hope you enjoyed the good weather. Have been in France for two weeks. Sailed my little boat across with three other ladies. Needless to say we had our adventures! Penzance to L'Abervrac'h in Brittany (a 26 hour crossing). After a few days we sailed up to Roscoff and then to Morlaix where we locked into the centre of the town and generally had a riotous time. Then back to hubbies - taking 30 hours to cross La Manche and all the horrible shipping lanes. Had a great time but no running. Now I have to get back to it. First race is pencilled in for Sunday October 16th - a 10K. Not my favourite distance. Have to run too fast.
Anyway, I have not read all your chatter I'm afraid. If I have missed anything vital I am sure you will update me. Nice to chat to you all. And nice to be able to chat in English again!

I have a half marathon in Wales a week on sunday, so started to taper. Had two weeks out with small tear in calf muscle, otherwise fine. I will leave everyone else to fill you in with their news.
Really lovely to have you back again. good luck with your return to running. I expect it will take a couple of weeks and then you will be back to normal. Ce xx

Knee dentist is at 4.00 tomorrow. I bought the knee support thingy which is OK for a while then it gets a bit uncomfortable behind the knee where it creases into folds.
I not a great believer in too much use of supports if it can be avoided. I think joints get used to the support and react if it's taken away so you end up with a permanent need.
JJ
Sounds like a fun event??????
You're only going for the cold hose down at the end.

I am about to watch the second half of " The full Monty" ITV1, in bed, which is continued after the news. However many times I see it, I still enjoy it.
