Lyrics today: I got this feeling on the summer day when you were gone
Impressive cycling, Don. I'm dead scared of MTB descends ...
Ugh, unruly neighbours, em. Send some heavies over to shut them up
What: LSR
Why: have the day off
Last hard: coping with the heat
Last rest: 21/6
Comments
Enjoy the day off chicksta - hope you have a good run.
Sorry you won't get your kayaking weekend OH.
School holidays eh emzap?
Very disturbed night here, hot and then a thankfully short lived thunderstorm with the loudest claps of thunder I have ever heard just before midnight. Woke with a sore throat and coughing around 0420hrs so I think I'm going to be struggling through today a little. Roll on wine o'clock!
What: short and easy/baking/work
Why: not up to much else/guest for the weekend/need the money
Last hard: sleeping
Last rest: 6/12
Lyrics - no.
Lyrics: no
Yesterday's were Peter Skellern with Our Jackie's Getting Married:

What: nothing
Why: London for the day. Probably a fair amount of walking not least when watching LFoM 5k. And to an alehouse. Or two.
Not a good night's sleep here, either, and nearly started the thread around 3, only to find Chick had got there first. Kept waking with sneezing fits.
Enjoy your day!
Apologies but not had a chance to read back yet but will catch up with everyone's exploits.
2 weeks in Lanzarote, some volcano trekking and of course a wine tour!
Ran every day, mostly on the sides of volcanos or on the coast paths, I'm guessing an average of 5-6 miles a day.
Phone largely in the safe and only fleetingly checked. Happy days.
Today will be back on the roads of Canary Wharf. Sigh.
Em : Frozen hot water bottles are the best at keeping you and bed cooler I have 2 every night and a chill pillow which also goes in freezer.
Don: WOW on bike ride hope you are not too sore today.
Dustin: Sounds like you had a great holiday,shame you are back at work today.
Benjy:Enjoy today I think most of us have suffered with slow runs with heat.
Chick: I hope LSR goes well in the heat:-(
What: 12,10 miles
Why: Because I can
Last hard: Not being able to run in woods so alternative route is a little more hilly
Lyrics: No
Oh boy my legs knew I had run more hills especially last 2 miles uphill home but first time 2@12 miles in a week so job done-yay It was warmer than of late but we had heavy rain for 2 miles then drizzle for another few miles very welcome and there were puddles:-)-I may have a nap later;-)
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
chick I agree re descents! Did a mtb experience with the other half years back in Wales, I got off and walked down while he and the girl taking us whizzed down!!! She did race that kind of stuff, me I am just a wuss
So donaldo hats off I am in awe
emzap empathise re screaming but mine was adults drinking lol! You have to have doors and windows open so can't even shut it out can you
wp seriously you are a machine! Well done
chick enjoy the lsr
OH that's a shame about your weekend, I am sure you will find stuff to fill it though!!
LMH had a lovely - busy day!
Benjy, enjoy the pool sounds brilliant, shame about the one you couldn't book. The timed vault sounds great!
alehouse have a great day and enjoy London
Dustin, wondered where you were, having fun it seems!!
What: will be a little run later
why: have to collect ride London number later (46 for me 100 for OH)
last hard: last nights 14 mile bike commute
last rest: 31/12/16
Hope you're enjoying your day out Alehouse.
The storms haven't cleared the air here at all Benjy. Mark is out this evening so I will raise a glass with at 1845hrs rather than drink alone:-)
Hope you can keep on top of your back issues chicksta.
Nice to get two long runs in one week Poppy.
What's the weather forecast like Wabo? Ours is pants for Sunday.
Sounds as though you enjoyed the excursion Donaldo. Is it something you think you'll do more of?
About three miles into my run there was thunder (fortunately no lightening) and torrential rain, in all I was soaked through and dried out three times! No sign of any rain at work which is only seven miles away and hot, hot, hot here again.
Just popping in today to say nickname meeting you at last Alehouse
Volunteering at park run in the morning so I need to get an early run in!
What: rest
Why: planning 30km tomorrow
Last hard: trying to get 50 bricks from 400 m away to here. I have a plan, but let's see if it works (no car!).
Lyrics: nope
Looks like the heavens may open in time for my brick moving!
Ale glad you got down to London.
Dustin glad you had a nice holiday
Wabo we had the adult's last time and the children yesterday. Today has been blissfully silent, amazing!
Chick Goettingen had horribly humid heat, it was awful. Oh I think there may be thunder (or someone moving their bin inside!).
Have a lovely evening all.
Sounds as though you had a nice day Alehouse.
Are you running at the minute Pammie?
Another hour before my train: the penalty of going for the cheapest ticket...and going to the alehouse to spend more than you saved. And it isn't even 18:45 yet: enjoy your drinks LMH and Benjy, and everyone else of course.
Hopefully there will be another day Alehouse
I may be about to start early Alehouse
I'm thinking positively though not looking forward to it. But some things have to be done as its not getting better on its own
Thunder here forecast tonight. Some of you have had it bad, hope the electricity stays on up here.
Home now, rest day today, happy to be back on my own couch.
Lyrics, inkling.
Lmh couldn't find one. Canvas bags and backpack...
