If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Morning!
Lyrics: no
Yesterday's lyrics were "I Walk the Line", Johnny Cash
What: short run/walk
Why: being careful, and will break the day up a little as will be facing a computer marking scripts for most of the day.
Looks like it will be another fine day here.
Was out at a black tie event last night so missed the club training, but did 16 x 1 minute fast, 1minute jog earlier in the day with a warm up and down.
Off to Ed. castle tonight for another posh night out, will hopefully train at lunchtime.
How do you find online marking alehouse? Lot of my colleagues are not fans.
Lyrics, nope!
Chicksta: Hope knees are feeling better and let you get out for longer. You’ve nicked our weather, can we have it back please?
Welsh: Good miles there, it is going to be quite a total come the end of this month
DD: Hope the ploughing went well!
Dustin: That is some serious track work, very impressed and a go in the jump pit! We used to have one at school, that must have been almost 30 years ago now (blimey is is as well thinking) haven’t seen one since.
Wabo: Your streak miles are getting higher? Don’t burn out… don’t gamble the streak… (I know you won’t really)
OH: Serious symptoms there, no pill will cure it, some may alleviate slightly, I think you cure you are thinking is the right way to go. Good luck on the ‘treatment’.
RFJ: On leave now? Enjoy if it starts today, hope prepped well for weekend
Ale: Keeping active I see, great stuff, champion spirit.
LMH: Keeping the symbiotic relationship with the legs and mind in check, good to see, I ignored the messages from legs Monday and went running in agony. Stubborn I was, suffered I did.
Don: Very James Bond, you need an emergency supply of Ferrero Rocher to hand
Sorry didn’t post yesterday, mega-busy with work, then daughter to swimming, then the youngest daughter school play (got dust in my eye so they started watering), then Taekwondo for me evening, was a 5:30AM up and start day, didn’t stop until 9:30PM. Had really bad DOMS yesterday, squeezed in a gym session at lunchtime but had no energy, so it was a bit rubbish, should have rested really.
What: Fancy a 10 on railway track cliffs, late morning (will probably be 8 though)
Why: Just to get out, celebrate good riddance to DOMS
Last Hard: Taekwondo yesterday, legs hurt non-stop
benjy just for you only a mile today!! Enjoy them railway track miles sounds lovely
don, wow you're very posh this week!
alehouse love johnny cash, hope the short run/walk goes well
lmh it is bleary out today! Enjoy your short easy
what: 1 mile squeezed in this morning early
why: getting barnet done later
last hard: this morning was as it was so early!!
last rest: 31/12/16
have a great day all
Morning again!
Don: online marking is a pain! As for the maths mark scheme...a couple of questions run into four or more pages each! Have a capital day!
LMH:I will swop you our heat for your cold....please;-)
Benjy: Enjoy the railway line run today and hope DOMS have disappeared that was a busy day yesterday!
Ale: I love Johnny Cash a favorite of mine.
Wabo: Great streaking and I did wonder what you meant abour Barnet but worked it out your are at the hairdressers?
Don: Posh do's get you:-)
What: 8.55 miles
Why: Because I can and I wanted too
Last hard: Sleeping in the heat
Lyrics: Oh yes I am on a streak unless i am wrong;-)
200m climbing and I felt stronger on the hills this morning no sheep but a few fox's and a duck;-)
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Get you Don, enjoy!
Sounds like a fun packed day yesterday Benjy, today's run sounds good
Still pretty muggy here tbh
What - easy lunchtime miles, coaching tonight
Why - legs battered / routine
last rest - 12/05
last hard - Last night: 400 & 400 / 300 & 300 /200 & 200 /100 & 100
first leg at 5k/mile/800/sprint pace, second leg at mara pace. 3 sets.
Tough on battered legs from Monday
Lots of great miles going down and nice to see you out Ale. Easy does it and hope all goes well. Benjy: What's your secret with DOMS? Takes me at least 48 hours to do anything if that kicks in. Rock'n'Roll down to just three in Europe now: Madrid in April, Liverpool in May and Dublin in June. Edinburgh/Nice/Lisbon all binned. Fun events tho'. American/Canadian ones are even more spectacular and hope to do 1 or possibly 2 in October.
Last nights club session was a larger stretch of Pavlovs (Team circuits, run -tag- recover-tag -run etc) Good for speedwork but hurts a bit!
Lyrics: I thinks so
What: Easy lunchtime run if i can escape GDPR
Why: Not up for much else and have race/run tomorrow
Last hard: Last night
Last Rest: Monday (These are essential Benjy, but I did take tae kwon do :-) )
Possibly short paddle and track this evening
Why
Convince myself I can still paddle before this weekend
Last hard
Coming home
Last rest
yesterday (didn't leave house) although a bit of gardening done.
Lyrics no
DPA was bad enough SC - lots of misinterpretation of that went on for many years. I doubt much will change with GDPR. Which race are you doing tomorrow?
That sounds like a very packed day yesterday Benjy. I hope you can get your ten miles in today.
When are you off on holiday Wabo?
Hope you escaped the marking for a while Alehouse.
Hope you enjoy the trip to Skye OH - somewhere I'd like to visit.
Good to feel strong Poppy! You are welcome to the less than warm weather trust me!
Hope your legs have forgiven you Dustin.
Wow busy on here!
Sorry for being AWOL. After a rather stressful trip to Sicily, I got back in one piece (just!) on Sunday evening. Didn't run at all last week, it just didn't feel safe and there were no pavements (plus saw 2 snakes...I HATE SNAKES!).
So, Monday, 3 x 800 at club. Meant to be 5, but breathing went to pot and so I had to stop.
Tuesday 13.71 km round the country lanes.
Today 8 km round the country lanes (different side of town).
Am feeling a bit cream crackered what with Dad, a not relaxing holiday and T-8 days till the m word and T-9 days till the w word. OH is away until Sunday night too, he stayed in Sicily for a conference!
Sounds like there's been some great running here. SC, sounds like Rock and Roll was fun. Hope all those with asthma issues ease soon. Ale good to see you've been out.
Will try and post regularly again over the next week, but please excuse me if I don't manage!
Have a lovely evening all. Girly prosecco and curry night here.
Evening!
Thanks for the reminder, LMH! Apart from walking to get a paper and putting the washing out, was non-stop marking from just after 7 until 5:45! Will get something to eat and then do another session...and then go to the alehouse...to discuss a possible parkrun venue.
What: 15 minutes, in theory easy
Why: finding all running hard at present. Think it is the weight.
Track tick
Nice sunny evening here
posting will be sporadic now as on leave and travelling from tomorrow......
3.25m today with some small intervals... ready for Sunday.... don't think there is any tracking.... no is 1841 for Edinburgh....
Take care
