If you double click on the LOL icon in your profile it gives you the posts that you got your LOLs for - you can then hover over the LOLs to see who was responsible.
PHew 2, SFF 2, Mace 1, Rich 1 (all from this thread though - perhaps everyone else on the forum thinks you are deadly dull? ;-))
Haha - I posted the above before I knew about my own personal glory of being second person on the forum to get 5 LOLs - it actually teels me that me and Literatin have got 5 LOL badges - surely that's not sustainable when 678 people have 5 LOL badges the message is going to be a bit long!
Then I looked at who had given me the LOLs and I am ashamed - SG 5 all just now and DT 1 - gutted
Muddy, clearly just since the rebirth of this site then...as i'm sure some posters were up to 100,000+ and suchlike in the old days.
It was always a good feature to see if someone posting was a 4 post numpty, or someone who'd been around and was a bit more legitimate though. ( appreciating that the two aint mutually exclusively!)
As my thread seems to have dropped into an absolute abyss of the fastest guys only bothering to pop in when they've a great time to "share", and not much day to day filler, I might hang about here for a bit.
Hopefully DT has some sort of base camp toilet style anecdotes on the go soon
It is a lot but it is skewed by fact I've moved my long run to today as I want a few beers tonight. If I had done it tomorrow it would have been 42 miles. It does contribute to explain why I couldn't complete my interval session.
But your interval session was before you did that many miles in a week...? Sounds like a good run though. I'm not horrifically jealous or anything.
It turned out my friend was just leading me on with the promise of a 3-mile test run and what I was allowed to do was in fact 8* 3 mins with 1 minute walking recoveries. So I did that. In a minor act of rebellion I covered more than 3 miles in my 24 minutes.
Hope you feel better soon Lou. Any excuse to avoid 12 miles @ MP...
And well done too Muddy - I too would be pleased to produce a 'tempo' parkrun in that time.
Would that involve checking the reaction in your calves tomorrow Lit ?
I just saw a physio about a couple of things. Interesting analysis which involved looking at my running at different paces. First time a physio has done that (presumably because I was thorougly injured on previous occasions). My easy pace involves more use of my calves as I bounce more. Need to work on ankle flexibility - do the soleus knee bend stretch and other stuff. At speed some torsion in my pelvis is causing some rotation at foot plant that is making my right side calf work harder. Got to work on hip mobility and shoulder tension. The left hand hip post fall is particularly poor.
Yes, that's right; that's why it was homework for today. That's interesting about the easy pace thing. I too am quite bouncy at easy pace and have been noticing the stiffness/discomfort in my achilles much more when jogging than when running fast.
The way he explained it was that it might be better to run a bit faster as the bouncing is almost a mechanism for keeping the forward pace down, albeit with the proviso that I don't mess up the foot plant which was ok at easy pace.
Very good Lit. I felt like chucking myself into the reservoir today. Long run of 18m (or one hundred years of ploditude) was hard going and was a couple of miles short of the 20m ambition.
I do find these runs hard on tired session legs but also didn't distribute my mileage very evenly due to the cold earlier in the week with approx 46m since Thursday evening taking its toll.

out of interest, how the ruck am I in the top 10 supposedly for all time, yet not even in this week's top 10
I'd imagine some clown who thinks they're funny has just LOLd tonnes Pete?
Are you limited to one reaction per post?
If anyone does fancy some mischief on posts....
Reg Wand on my thread....
He's a joker, so i'm quite tickled by about 20 people randomly liking his posts..or better still disagreeing with everything for weeks .
I'm a bastad like that though.
As I have run long Sunday and today I've run 62.5 miles and done two spin classes in last 7 days. Probably worth a rest tomorrow.
I think that's a very.good run DT, I'd be pleased with that after a big week.
It like that sort of threshold parkrun....

I'm confused, I thought you were doing no running?
