Morning!
Lyrics: Friendly old girl of a town.
Yesterday's were Elvis with "Blue Suede Shoes" on the 40th anniversary of his death.
Early start: awaiting taxi to airport.
What: probably something in the hotel gym
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Have a nice trip Alehouse.
Permanent toothache doesn't sound pleasant chicksta.
I'm not happy with the format of the race on Saturday. It was supposed to be a time trial format as it's on the canal path but now I find that Mark, with a predicted finish time twenty five minutes slower than mine, is starting five minutes before me as there weren't a lot of faster men entered - apparently there are about twenty men in this wave, only three of which have predicted a faster time than me. I'm not confident of my chances of safely passing at the same time as avoiding other path users especially as the runners may well be wearing headphones. I don't want to turn an ankle or end up in the canal. Really annoyed that I've compromised my marathon training. I knew it wasn't likely to be a PB course, that's fine, but I want to be back training on Sunday.
Heavy rain here at the minute as there has been for the past few hours but due to stop shortly so I hope the Met have that right.
What: either short and easy or LSR
Why: depends whether I decide to ditch the race or not
Last hard: realising I need to replace another pair of trainers
Last rest: 15/7
Lyrics - no.
I seemed to have missed yesterday and missed Elvis lyrics we had our local newsagents dress up as Elvis outside shop he serenaded me yesterday it did make me smile to see I was not the only one to remember him.
Yesterday was walking and a lovely day
LMH: That is very poor from the race I hope you make the right decision for you and your body.
Ale Have a lovely trip:-)
What: aiming for 6 mile run it could have walking or not
Why: what leg is demanding
Last hard being sensible
Lyrics; Yes
Miles makes smiles.

LmH - that's nuts. Is it a new race?
Canal paths are notorious for pinch points, cyclists and headphone wearers.
What - possibly coaching the little people but at the mercy of South West Trains still, if not 6 easy
Why - trying to keep sane
last rest - 04/07
last hard - staying calm with rail chaos
chicksta hi, my permanent toothache ended up being a dead nerve, I'm sure caused by smashing that side of my face on the pavement years ago coming off the bike! Hope you get yours sorted. Getting mine finished with a crown tomorrow
alehouse where are you off to? Have fun
LMH sounds a pain that race! Hope it somehow pans out ok.
dustin, whatever way it ends up, have a good un
WP, hoping to hear good about your 6 miles
what: hill session later with work mate
why: As I run every day - sometimes I crave company
last hard: last nights 4.33 with same work mate
last rest: 31/12
nagging oh to run as he also entered snowdonia!!
Have a good day all
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Sun shining
Sitting on front eating ice-cream a with Els and youngest daughter. Son flying in from Copenhagen imminently.
The toothache thing has nothing to do with my teeth apparently. At least that's what the dentist said after thorough examination and xrays. It's more some sort of neuralgia - so there must be a cause elsewhere.
Sorry to hear about rail chaos, Dustin
Glad you're running again, Poppy.
I ran up some stairs today to catch a train - don't tell my osteo
What: 30mins of stretching, 45mins swim
Why: the long and winding road to recovery
Last hard: Tuesday
Last rest: 5/8
Lyrics: no
Am sure everyone knows the lyrics, really.
LMH: I would contact them to say you intend to run around 1:25 to go high in the rankings but you won't be able to run that starting where you are because of the number of runners.
Off to hotel fitness suite.
Sounds as though OH has the best of the weather.
I won't say anything chicksta:-)
Hope you can get your OH out training Wabo or he's not likely to enjoy Snowdonia much.
What: went cycling along the country lanes blackberry picking at lunch, then ran a mile after work
why: the blackberries are out! Wanted to get them before anyone else does!
Last hard: the stinging nettle on my ankle, it's still stinging 4 hours later!
Lyrics: nope, but I have a feeling I can guess what they are to do with...and indeed I guessed the song name but never heard of it
LHM that is really annoying. Especially as you contacted them. It's not your fault if you are faster than other women. I hope you make the right decision whatever you decide.
WP sounds like progress!
Ale enjoy
Chick, naughty
Wabo your OH is going to be in for a shock!
Have a great evening all.
LMH - hope you make the right desicion for you
WP - getting there
Intervals last night
Easy tonight plus a fall (hand damage only, self dressed)
Take care
