Morning.
Lyrics - Libraries gave us power
It's a pain when they do that to shoes Alehouse. Are you sure they're going to be ok to use though? No point in a self-inflicted injury if it can be avoided.
What: swim
Why: trying to stay strong
Last hard: motivating myself on the bike
Last rest: 2/7
Yesterday's lyrics - The Line by Noah And The Whale
Comments
What: maybe a walk
Why: back sore after swimming
Last hard: swimming
Lyrics: nope
Ale 1st test starts today
Well done forever, good weekend of running there
Have a good one all
What - interval swim
Why - tapering from today
Last hard - yesterday, tempo run
Lyrics - yes!
Morning,
Welcome Mrs Noel!
Nice win forever
LmH - If that's August I think it is unlikely as I think I'm in Kent (family) for bank holiday w/e
what - 6 easy lunchtime
why - legs mashed: 3x1800s last night with 200 recoveries. Tried to ran each 'flat out' must've worked as its the closest I've come to being sick since a hard track session in the winter.
last rest - 10 days
last hard - yesterday
lyric - on a barren streak at the moment.
I wonder if the Germans were singing "its just like watching Brazil" last night. That change strip has to go though.
Welcome to the DTT Mrs Noel - tapering for what?
You must be getting really fed up now emzap.
It is August Dustin.
Whilst walking Grace I decided that it was far too nice a morning to waste in the pool so today's what turned into an easy run.
Just 3.8 miles today, legs have nothing left in them! Going to take a couple of rest days now and then have a parkrun on Saturday.
Dustin, that was some result last night! I dont watch a lot of football but looking forward to the 2nd semi-final tonight. Not expecting a similar result though!
I don't watch football either, but being in Germany it's hard to avoid it round here! Think Sunday may be a bit crazy (hooters going till 1am this morning, and that was only after winning the semifinal...)
LMH wasn't fed up until I looked outside, 2 days of rain with no sign of it letting up, so now a walk is looking more and more unlikely. I keep telling myself (and work) I'll be back next week, but it never comes! I will be back next week though!
Hello Mrs Noel.
Morning! And welcome Mrs N!
Lyrics: no
What: 22 mins/4k off road on cinder paths
Why: Trying to get back into it. 1st k slow, next two quicker, last one slower. Felt a lot better than last night.
Pleasant day here, although I said that yesterday and then it rained: torrential with the grass and drive flooded!
Watching the cricket now: a good pitch to bat on! Then off to a neighbour's funeral: a decent innings. 91.
Don, or anyone else: I have two spare tickets for Commonwealth Hockey on Thursday 24th at 7.00, cost price, £15 each if you know of anyone who wants them. Son can't go and it is before I arrive in Bonnie Scotland.
A'noon
Cracking warm and sunny day here.
Lots to catch up on
Welcome Mrs Noel
I'm working nightshift for the Commonwealth Games !
Going to the Diamond League Meeting at Hampden with MissB on both this Friday and Saturday
Phwoar - 7:1 - I'm mighty impressed. I never thought they had it in them. Honestly. Made me feel sorry for Brazil. At the end of the day it's their home cup!! Hope it's going to be a Dutch-German final . That's my first conscious memory of footy: the 1974 final (I was six at the time) and was allowed to stay up late
Forever: very impressive weekend of racing there. Nice to have some reassurance that speed and fitness are back.
Welcome, Mrs. Noel
what: 12 miles
why: away over the WE, so need to get some miles in now
last rest: Monday (unless you count core work)
last hard: dunno
lyrics: no

Lyrics no
Nice morning for a longish run and feel better for having completed it.
Evening all
welcome mrs noel
postie I know what you mean about feeling good after that run today
agree about shoe changes I have fallen foul of that more than once, chickadee I felt uncomfortable and shocked watching that game last night
af sorry to hear you felt carp on your run
alehouse sounds like you had a good run
I am on holiday this week but at home, it's so nice! Went up the road on Monday to watch tdf whizz by!
what 10 mile long every slow run this morning
