Morning.
Lyrics - When I get home it's late at night
A grey start to the day here with the temperature due to drop as the morning progresses and heavy rain forecast with the wind picking up to make tomorrow even worse - I do hope this isn't the end of summer.
Well done emzap.
I bet that went down well Benjy - hope there's no hangover this morning. Glad the girls had a good day out.
The injection shouldn't be too painful Pammie and hopefully it will bring quite instant relief.
What: short and easy
Why: Saturday/guest/weather
Last hard: adjusting to the change in weather may be hard
Last rest: 12/6
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

EM: You are a strong woman:-)
What: 8 miles

Last Hard: Getting out of bed and the torrential rain and winds
Lyrics: Yes
Boy that was tough fighting the rain and winds, ankle deep puddles and so many of them.It has taken me ages to warm up we had thunder whilst I was in the woods so thought shift myself to get home before the lightening starts.I had wanted to make 60 miles for week but on 59.25 and I was not going to make the short fall up that is how injuries happen.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
What a difference a day (or two) makes! On Friday it was 31 in Manchester. Yesterday I am told it was 34 when I was in London: it was certainly hot. Half an hour ago it was 11.5 when I was getting soaked on the way back to the car from shopping. Had to have the heater on in the car! The sun is out again now and it never actually rained at home, about five miles or so from the shopping centre (Handforth Dean, OH).
What: about 6k walked with half of it run
Why: being careful. Knee niggled to start with but then it loosened up. It was largely walk 100, run 100 then I just walked until I knew I was 1k from home and ran that section.
Hope you coped with the 30k, Emz, and pacing duties went well.
not much change here, still having issues with leg and foot, not running many miles, but enough to tick over, wind was a bummer this morning but still over 1:15 down on last weeks time as had no pwer in the leg and foot.......
afternoon session in the gym, now looking to find a phsyio.....
Take care
Good that your knee eased off Alehouse.
Sorry to hear that your back is still giving you gyp chicksta.
You know your body best Poppy and you seem to be doing quite well by listening to it.
Hope it went well emzap - certainly much cooler today.
That's a lot of moving around between swims OH.
The rain had stopped by the time I got out for my run and it felt warmer than the forecast 14C but boy was it blowy! Not sure if it was the cooler weather or the tail wind but the last few miles this morning were fast for me which sure felt good. Not sure what I'm going to do if tomorrow's forecast is correct and feel sorry for those doing the Outlaw.
Back to 19 degrees. Which would be quite pleasant if it were not for very strong winds.
Doesn't sound good about Hamburg Tri, but difficult to know what the organisers could do
What: 45 minutes in the fitness suite
Why: had time, but wasn't too enthusiastic when I got there!
Lmh hopefully so from what I'm told they say I will
My local weather forecast say high temperatures return 2nd week in August
WP its nice to put a face to the name
What 4.1 mile walk
Why exercise
Lyrics very familiar
MIL is now out of hospital, but in a home until her mobility returns (if it ever does)
LMH - I will plan to go via work medical than GP as will take too long plus GP has previosly intermated that not interested in running injuries as it is a life sylye I choose and am perfecttly fit day to day..... (that did make me fume)....... but was declined physio on those grounds.... (that was a couple of years back now and so have never gone back to GP for running related issues.....
Take care....
7 miles today, decent run. I might have missed selection for the Europeans but I’ll live.
lyrics, maybe.
