Dull, breezy and chilly here:-(
Sorry to hear that your asthma is being a pain Poppy.
I thought yesterday was going to be a rest day SC?
What: short and easy
Why: tired/work
Last hard: not seeing the sun this morning
Last rest: 4/5
Lyrics - I think I do.
Dustin: That is fantastic to hear about Leeds, I've been wondering how you and your daughter have got on. Really nice to hear and a great effort from her. I said to my eldest daughter "do you fancy doing the great north run with me when you are 18?" She said "No way", I've got 8 years to talk her round though. Great stuff a real uplifting report.
SC: Running in treacle, it's not great, I admire your determination to not let things hold you back though #5 'Indomitable Spirit'.
Wabo: Forgot to say yesterday, I like the run to pick up the car. A great way to make your streak useful!
LMH: You should replace Helen Willets on BBC weather, she tells half-truths, whereas your forecast is spot on. The weather is playing mind games.
OH: Thumbs up for today's adventure. That's rubbish 100miles and falling apart, should easily expect 600 from them.
Chicksta: Great to hear you both getting out and about active. Really good.
Not great sleep, got bitten by a spider last night before bed, picked it up to pop out of the window, two of them, one sunk its fangs in, had two little parallel 'spliters' in my skin. Was worried would have a reaction, got bitten by a tick 4 years ago and head turned to a pumpkin and joints swelled A&E job. Anyway glugged piriton and was fine had to tweeezer them out, just the outer layer of skin guess it didn't get fully in. Quite honoured as it is another experience for my bucket list, this isn't Australia you don't expect that.
What: Steady run on railway track then cliffs back to North Bay after school drop off.
Why: Get out, get active take it easy on ankle.
Lyrics: Nope. Yesterday's Ken Bruce popmaster was a poor score also, so on a bad steak now.
Have a good one today chaps, cooler weather for activity.
sc powerful vibes to you

WP what miles already!
Benjy oh blooming heck!!! Hope you are ok

last hard: heavy legs this morning
last rest: 31/12/16
daughter off to barts for pre op today
Benjy more #3 Perseverance :-) Never been bitten by a spider, impervious to darkness and fear but.....
LMH...enjoy the easy. Today was planned rest. Yesterday was debate about track or not. Made the right/wrong choice. Certainly got me moving and ended up just shy of 6 miles so 11+ for the day but aching today in places I did not know I could!
Looking forward to Crime Watch report and tales of Wrath!
What: day of Rest
Why: I need it
Last Hard: Last night
Last Rest: Work in progress
Lyrics: Should have :-)
WP - hoping the asthma starts to settle down
Benjy - spider bite? really ? In England? I'm impressed!!
SC - enjoy the rest day!
What - steady lunchtime, easy tonight (coaching)
Why - Club set last night, pyramid set 200,400,600,800,1k...200 with 200 recoveries on longer than hoped for grass.
last rest - Saturday
last hard - yesterday
Rest day for me today.
Lyrics - yes!
SC: well earned rest after yesterday's exertions.
Sorry to hear about the asthma, Poppy. I had a near miss on today's run when I swallowed a fly which caused a coughing fit and very nearly an attack. Inhaler saved me.
Nice pyramid Dustin.
OH: sorry to hear about the Hokas. I was thinking about getting some in the hope that they help protect my arthritic toe joints.
Fingers crossed for your daughter, wabo
Hope you feel less tired post run, LMH
What: 11.5 miles
Why: fancied something longer
Last hard: not choking on that damn fly
Last rest: 10/5
Lyrics: yes
Yesterday's were Little Lies, Fleetwood Mac
Dustin: Bet you daughter is soon back for more. My teenagers are suddenly into park runs cos they can kick dad's arse, but strongly suspect that daughters don't have that level of need to win!
WP: Hope that your all well and good by tomorrow,
BB: spiders are nasty little buggers, on the plus side there is nothing deadly in the UK.
Chick: Flies aren't very tasty
OH: Sounds as if your having fun up there.
LMH: Not planning a tri just yet as that would require swimming! Have a ½M in two weeks better do some more miles then.
What: 27 miles on the bike as a time trial ( It was the Stourhead Immortal ½ IM loop) wanted to see what sort of shape I'm in... getting there is the answer.
Why: Legs way too tired to run.
Last Hard: Last nights club run across the fields, all the grass was about 18" high, will be glad when its all hay.
Last Rest: Thursday... the day my legs gave up!
Lyrics as always are a no.
Little to report!
Don't know the lyrics and am having a rest day. Back sore after yesterday's stretches/Pilates exercises; calf tender; blistered heels from walking! Other than that I'm fine!
Lots to comment on, so I won't, apart from to say I hope daughter-of-Wabo's pre-op goes to plan.
Lots going on today. Quick post from me as am on holiday. No running since Sunday but averaging about 20km a day walking round Greek temples in Sicily. Spending a lot of time avoiding scams and trying to figure out road directions but generally having a great time.
Hope all injured, bitten, etc heal soon and will report properly when back.
Have a lovely evening all.
lots going on, apologies not getting much time to read and digest
3.25m MP run tonight... everyday getting closer....
Take care
