Managed an easy 5 miles on Friday evening, intended to go out yesterday as well but didn't get round to it. Was meant to be a cut back week although not quite that much, only 13 miles for the week. Back on it this week hopefully!
Feb 39.2
YTD 144.7
A very slow 9.55 miles this morning, off-road across sticky fields and along squelchy paths. Heavy going but pleasant enough, in bright sunshine but with a chill easterly breeze.
114.47
Does anyone know how to access new discussions? I Can't see a way of looking at who's posting a new topic (or even find most of the old ones) and recent discussions seems fixated with some from about 2014.
EVENTS UPDATE - ANY EVENT ADDED AFTER 01:00AM ON MONDAY 30TH JANUARY 2017 WILL NOT BE MIGRATED TO THE NEW EVENTS PLATFORM.
so obviously still a work in progress.
ps. just making a few comments in the knowledge that for each one its an extra mile (?) for Harmander,
On a more lighter note, and just to see what happens
Thought I'd provide Little Nell with the full unexpurgated pic of my new tights, smooth huh?
ps, Think all those nice ladies in my "train" all went by me in last 5K, no wonder they're smiling, and its not just the view of my derriere.
Have a "like" from me Sir, just to show that I'm down with the kids with this soshul meeja stuff.
Post your views on new thread here:
What do we really think of this new site??
No need to shout!
I actually accessed the site on an ipad yesterday and it fits the screen perfectly if you rotate the ipad so that the screen runs down the longer face of it.
It is rubbish on a pc or laptop though!
No running to report... not even any Pilates as I missed my class due to staying late at work to try to address my instrument problems! Just popped in to see if I could see the new pic of my old pup as my avatar... woo hoo - success!!!
Also couldn't turn down the opportunity to follow Muttley's lead and do a big ol' LIKE of senidM's tights (and people) pic - they are genuinely great tights, are they actually New Look's own brand or were they stocking some brand name gear?
Stylish - will post some thoughts on your other thread... since you mentioned it in such an understated way
If they had a swoosh on them - £79 all day long, but as NL, 60quid cheaper, and as for first impressions, good quality.
10 miles yesterday split across 2 runs. Can't believe we're already half way through February. Time flies...
YTD 142.2
Nice daily double there 20TO10 - I'm a big fan of doubles... Stylish is not so keen though
Legs were a bit achy yesterday after Sunday's 18 miles but I had completely forgotten any leg grumbles today and did a nice speedy track session - very happy with some steady fast pacing. Total of 5.50 miles including w/u and c/d.
YTD: 215.18 miles.
11.33 miles making:
YTD = 336.18 miles (rounded) - More than a third of the way there.
Got Hampton Court Half on Sunday where i will be pacing for 2:30 (as practice for the 5:00 for the London.
You're going well Nell ...
For me 6.27 miles today, comprising 6 x 1km tempo with 1-min recoveries, paces varied a bit across reps due to obstacles like dozy numpties with mobile phones, dogs and small children, gradients and twists and turns. Pleased overall. Now for another cuppa because the first one barely touched the sides.
120.74
YTD: 69

Nell, how much have I changed (no not my clothes but features)
Two weeks ahead of prediction
I have added a profile pic of me and my good lady wife, only taken at a friends wedding last year, ah how cute are we?
Thanks Nick, Worthing was fun.
Good luck, not that you need it to Harmander for this weekend, the pacer I followed last weekend was spot on, I am sure you will be too.
Nell / Muttley - I'm a shy person really. Don't say much and just keep quiet.
7.15m last night. Not a good run as I was running on empty. Might not make target this month.
YTD - 119.38
Are we in a running boom? I was toying with entering a local 10k, fund raiser for a scout group, limited to a 1000, sold out almost a month in advance.
You will make the required miles I am sure.
Thank you David Charman - will let you know how it went.
Yes Donnie2, I was trying to sneak in another marathon before London but all those close to me are full.
Another 13.46 miles (a bit slower than Tuesday's run) makes
YTD = 349.64 miles
Got two half marathons on consecutive Sundays - annoying as I would have preferred to do 18 milers to keep the mileage up - guess I will have to do an extra run midweek (while 'er Indoors is not looking.
Harmander - will you get past 400 by month end? On course for about 2500 this year I think.
4.5 miles for me last night, including 2.5 miles at tempo (which for me is currently 8-8.15m/m pace).
95.5 YTD
In the meantime, 5.03 miles easy this morning, nothing too energetic as I have a 10-mile race on Sunday.
