Morning guys

What: treadie interval day 60 mins (3 mins hard 2 mins jog).

Why: Mr program tells me to!

Last rest:12/10

Lyrics: 'We grow apart,  watch you on the red horizon'

Treadie was tough today, not a great sleep last night and I am on the evening shifts at work. This is gross, but I also have a veruca that hurts, the podiatrist is treating it but it may need to be cut out. Yuck hey....

 

Have a great day everyone

    Morning.

    Yesterday's lyrics - The Winner Takes It All by Abba.

    I'm not surprised Alehouse but I just wish they'd put their hands up straight away. I guess I can safely say I'm sub 1.30 but that's all.

    Sounds painful and annoying Dibs. Which program are you following?

    What:          LSR/smt
    Why:           haven't run long for three weeks/legs
    Last hard:    smt will be hard
    Last rest:     16/10

    Lyrics - no.

    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    RFJ - remember watching Lousie Damen destroy the field at Reading XC last winter, I think she won by over a minute.
    what - club night, 800s I think
    why - routine
    last rest - 17 days

    Dibs: Your treadmill session sounded a tad tough; I hope those lyrics aren't a requiem for your veruca. image

    LMH: Hopefully the course measures accurately, even if it's a few metres out, first lady is still a great achievement.  Was the prize for first lady a room in the White House out of curiosity? image

    Dustin: Hope club night/post-run cake goes well. image

    OH: Enjoy the (potential) badminton, hope it goes... goodminton (gettin' me coat). image

    Wabo: T'was enjoyable; did my utmost to avoid people given my hair was sticking up in an all manner of angles, guess that added to the fun.  Hope the 5 miles go well. image

    Kentish: Hello, I sort of miss getting up at silly o'clock, though doubt I could see the light at 5.30am. image 
    I trust the 5 miles were enjoyable. image

    Enjoy the rest of your day, I'm offskies. image

    Have a good day. image

    She's a QoP chicksta. Apparently my legs are better than last time but left hamstring is tighter than the right - which is the one that feels worse to me.

    Welcome Kentish.

    Hope you can get the washing machine sorted OH.

    More kit required so you can layer up Poppy image

    I think the course is going to be about 200m out as my Garmin measured 13.01 miles and that was without cutting the corners - unlike the two men in front of me and the man behind..........can't say what anyone else did. I least I know I ran the full course - whatever that turns out to be.

    Any races planned Dustin?

    Another lovely morning. Ran 16 miles. Legs were fine but it became obvious that there is some residual fatigue, would be surprised if it were just the half so I guess probably a combination of that and the ultra three weeks ago. Have Weston super Mare half on the 8th November so will have to start tapering again I suppose image maybe one last long one on Thursday if the weather doesn't get too bad.

    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Afternoon!

    Dustin:  unfortunately I am somewhat heavier than that photo. More than several pints heavier, in fact. Sorry, gallons.

    Lyrics: no

    What: relatively easy shuffle this evening

    Why: yesterday was relatively hard.

    And welcome Kentish! Stick around!

    Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

    Oops I forgot: welcome Kentish image



    What's 8 stone 7 in kilos? That stone thing is something I never got... I got used to miles and inches and even those pounds that aren't proper pounds ... image
  • Options

    Just under 54kg, Chick. Currently about 63 so would be good to get below 60 (about 9 stone 6 I believe)!

    Welcome Kentish image

    Els is heading off for a medical conference in Fort William, WP. It's only me that's heading down to play at Fort William.

    I don't think I can remember a problem with my hair sticking up! image

    No washing machine part here, nor is Els home from work yet (She started at 7:30 and that's part-time!)

    Stay on them then AF.

    Ooops WsM is the 1st - guess I'd better start tapering tomorrow then image

    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Track session - 5 x 400 / 300 / 200 of 100m walk rec trying not to let an IBS attack hinder the efforts, but ensured a short cool down....

    Take care
