Friday 1st December 2017 - He don't hang around with the gang no more.

Morning.

Lyrics - He don't hang around with the gang no more.

It's December - how did that happen?

That's a lot of walking SC and yes, much sampling took place - as the scales are confirming this morning.

What:           easy miles
Why:            back to normality
Last hard:    I don't like it to be hard
Last rest:     30/11
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    Glad you enjoyed your day, WP/LMH


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

    Morning

    what: rest (sport wise, driving to my old hometown life wise)
    Why: here over the weekend, so using the time to visit friends
    Last hard: I have to face my demons and drive that horrible horrible commute I used to have
    Lyrics: nope

    Got out for 7km last night after it had snowed quite a bit.  I was in shorts...it was fun though and managed to do some of it before dark so a slightly more interesting route.

    Glad you enjoyed the GFS WP and LMH.  
    Ale look after those legs.

    Have a lovely day all.

    Happy Friday everyone. Nice start to the day, a balmy 10c, cloudy but a bit of a breeze so just the two layers today . Idly thinking about posting whilst out this morning about how pleasant it was, hr sub 150 all the way when whoops, 243. Time out and adopt the position. Settled after a couple of minutes of valsalvals and last 4k passed off sedately. Ho hummm...could be worse...might have been down with Dustin´s man flu :-) Emz...my sympathy. I hate revisiting old commutes. It won´t last long with your running LMH so glad you enjoyed.
    What:10,4k gentle in 55
    Why: Seemed like a good idea to run round the coast.
    Last hard: Getting up this morning
    Last rest: Last night´s best sleep since flying solo again
    Lyrics: Not today

    Yay re. Snowdonia, wabo. You need to kick your OH into shape :)
    I used to run through Writtle on my long runs when I lived in Chelmsford. Lovely little country lanes there. Hylands Park, the Chignals, Leaden Roding, Pleshey and all those other nice places...

    em: Is that the commute where you were knocked off the road? That would turn me into a quivering nervous wreck ... 

    What: 10 and a bit k
    Why: 41 weeks til Berlin
    Last hard: figuring out whether I was scared or excited about getting a place ...
    Last rest: 25/11
    Lyrics: no

    Yesterday's were Genesis - Tonight tonight tonight

    Chick yes exactly that one...I'm temped to drive Landstrasse although they are also dangerous and don't fill me with joy.

    Hannover parkrun starts this weekend, but I have put my sensible hat on and said 300 km round trip is not worth it for 5km!

    Hope the drive is ok emzap and that you have a nice weekend.

    Glad you were able to get it under control and finish your run SC - make the most of the warmth, cold and slippery here this morning.

    Excited chicksta - you'll have a great time and it's good to have something to aim for.

    You're a glutton for punishment where Snowdonia is concerned Wabo - hope you can get your OH to the start line next year. Enjoy xc tomorrow.

    Glad to hear you aren't feeling too rough Dustin.

    Has your achilles settled again Alehouse?
    If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

    I think you're right, LMH. I am indeed getting excited.

    em: It's the same for me, roughly a 300k roundtrip. I just have to wait for Parkrun Hamburg to start. Plus it's our office Christmas Party tonight and I'm looking forward to a few drinkies.  I agree on Landstrasse. Very dangerous indeed, especially on weekends.

    Managed to nip out to the gym at lunchtime for a quick 30min kettlebell session. If I want to toe the start line next year I better keep up my strength work.
