Well I'm running down the road trying to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind.
Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me
One says she's a friend of mine.
OK
So tonight was supposed to be early bed.
It's going to be early rise, whatever.
2 hour each way commute, for a morning's work. A brief interlude for BBQ shopping, then dentist mid afternoon.
Imagination necessary for the training slot. Enjoy Friday y'all. I always do.

Morning.
Yesterday's lyrics were Born in the USA by The Boss.
Sounds like a busy one Blisters - hope you find your slot.
That's lots of acing Wabo - you must be enjoying it.
Good to see Pammie back.

Last hard: 30/6
Last rest: 27/4
Lyrics - yes.
Morning
What: Hill Session
Why: Slept in yesterday and usually do it on a Thursday
Off to Scarborough for a holiday tomorrow with Mrs B
Back later to catch up
Morning all,
Blisters - you were up early ! hope you get time for that run though
Birks - don't forget your bucket and spade, going to be a hot few days. Enjoy.
Wabo - hope you hit the 8m/m
Pammie - thanks
LmH - no specific target as yet but have trail run in August with few club boys, and our local half in October. May do an autumn marathon too.September is busy though: club champs & final track meet (juniors), road relays & swimming champs. Thats 4 weekends accounted for....
what - 4 or 5 lunchtime
why - ticking over.
Didn't run yesterday (aside from easy jogging with the U11s). Had them in the sandpits rather than running as the runways were free. Makes a change to get them trying some jumping, just a good job we have two runways at each end!
last rest - yesterday
last hard - saturday
lyric - no idea
have a lovely weekend
Morning Dustin: Thanks for reminding me re bucket and spade
Morning
What: a gentle 5 km
Why: it's in the plan and my legs are feeling a bit mashed, so couldn't manage anything else anyway!
Last hard: remote desktopping into work...can't get it to work properly and have a Monday deadline (UK office, so can't just go in!).
Last rest: 20/6
Birks sorry to hear about the job enjoy the holiday
Wabo hope the 5 km goes well tonight
Blisters glad bike is fixed
Anyone racing this weekend?
Have a good one all.
Tapering away and taking it easy!!!
might do a 20 min/ 10 min easy easy cycle, easy run in a bit. Taking it easy.
Birks - you were too good for them.
This time tomorrow I'll be looking at a (hopefully) calm sea and getting ready to Not take it easy for two odd hours!!.
Blisters - Enjoy the bike.
LMH - how long is long??
Lyrics - deffo not
morning all just
blisters your lyrics yes and enjoy Friday - oh yes!!

emzap it went well and I am racing tomorrow
birkmyre have a great holiday!
5k last night in 25.26...

why: I really don't know
last hard: last night
last easy: Monday I think

ok its good afternoon now....
I didn't hit the 8mm though Dustin, managed 8.04, Battersea park is not great for me, I forgot the tree pollen and was struggling the first k trying to cough clear my throat etc etc. But not disappointed at all, running quite well for me at the moment. Sounds like your day went well.
oh why is my dustin bit at the bottom that's very odd
Cheers for comments re job interview. Appreciated.
Paddy - four and a half hours/twenty minutes. Have a great one tomorrow. Beautiful weather for it here, nearly wish I were racing the Outlaw but whilst I could get round comfortably enough it's too early for me to be racing long.
Wabo - enjoy!
Humm think 5km will be scrapped. Feeling dodgy since 11:30 and don't want to push it today as I want to do a long run tomorrow. Fell asleep for 3.5 hours this afternoon, still not feeling great. Don't think missing a slow 5 km will hinder the training much
Paddy and Wabo good luck for tomorrow.
(((birks))) sorry about the job
enjoy tapering, paddy
blisters: yikes, dentist
what: 13 hot and miserable miles
why: appointment had me miss my stupid o clock slot ...
last hard: today
last rest: 24/6
lyrics: yes
Evening
What 10ish commute
Why because
Lyrics yes
Stil on the low HR though pace appears to be picking up slightly so something must be working.
Will try and fit in a medium long run tomorrow as I doubt I'll have time Sunday.
Birks, there is better waiting for you in the wings I'm sure
Lyrics - think so.....
What - 5.25m
Why Easy run
Last hard - Weds
Last Rest - Mon
Take care all
Afternoon...or is it evening!
Lyrics: yes, two days in a row!
What: zero
Why: taking it easy. Legs still feel slightly tender from Tuesday's harder session. Only did 10 mins on Weds and 15 mins last night. Must do something more strenuous tomorrow!
Edit: I thought I had posted at around 5 o'clock!
Lyrics: Take it Easy, by the Eagles. There are some classic, cheesy, blatantly sexist lines in there that make me think that the author was a complete red-neck. But I'll let them off.
Congrats to all who got a bit done today. I felt as though I had achieved a miracle when I had kept up with both of the mens semi finals at Wombledone. In amongst that were the items on my first post, plus mowing the lawn (during the roof interval) and cleaning the pond pump (in the gloaming). OH yes, doing the washing, making the family tea, and two batches of bread.
I failed to do the following: wash car, go for run, go to choir practice, purchase new shower.
Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. I'm going on a bike ride. It may be politically insensitive, but we are going out for a posh meal later. I think that wifey's aim is to catch sun rays and snore the afternoon away. Fair's fair.
