Morning.
Lyrics - I don't wanna talk
About things we've gone through
Fantastic chicksta - older and faster is the way to go! I'm so pleased you enjoyed the day so much. Rest up and recover well.
These youngsters SC!
Hope you enjoy the course OL.
We were forecast a nice day today but it looks as though the storm is going to get to us a little earlier than originally thought but I'm hoping I can fit most of my run in before then - of course it's always the way that the wind is strongest near the end of the run when you're running in to it and you're tired...............
What: hopefully a LSR
Why: haven't done one for a while
Last hard: recovering from the half - I still have my PITA
Last rest: 19/8
Yesterday's lyrics - The Best by Tina Turner.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Was just going to start the thread...but pleased I didn't as I know these lyrics!
What: short run later
Why: working today for the first time since July 16th so run after. Achilles/calf not happy so will keep it short plus stretch
Hope the legs are not too bad today Chick!
Chick - wowzers, a great run and a lovely report. Have to admit Berlin on my bucket list, not only for the race but to return to the City.
Ollie - Good time for an easy run!
SC - executed pacing strategy perfectly, and the youngster made it round in the initial target (just) despite the pit stops, so as you say, box ticked!
What - easy run lunchtime or this evening
Why - easier week: SEAA road relays on Sunday
last rest - 2 weeks
last hard - Saturday
lyric - yes!
Benjy: Like your little trots aka my long runs. Hope you don't get too much of the bad stuff on the LSR LMH. I'll be joining the Ale short and easy club later. Niggly right quad/hammy. Thought it was cramp onsetting in last couple of clicks yesterday but might have upset something. Hope not.
What: Short and easy
Why: Saving myself for Belfast at the weekend
Last hard: Getting to bed Sunday morning :-)
Last Rest: Friday
Lyrics: yes indeed
Thanks for all the congrats guys. I'm still on a bit of a high.
SC: Well done for holding junior's hand in yesterday's 10k. Hope he learned his lesson. Eek, seems like hamstring trouble is catching! Hope yours comes to nothing. My osteo is back this week and I have an appointment on Friday.
Ollie: Good to see you and good luck with your studies.
Fingers crossed the wind doesn't get so bad and that you managed a good LSR, LMH.
My legs are absolutely fine this morning, apart from the sore spot at the insertion point of the left biceps femoris. So it's sort of PITA for me too
Surprised how good everything feels. It was a bit different yesterday evening when I could barely get our of the car after the 3 hour drive. But stairs are no problem. If it weren't for the hamstring I would have gone for a little recovery run.
Finisher selfie with medal:
Hope it's nothing SC.
Weird weather day - rain, drizzle, wind and sun but warm throughout - not unpleasant though and I enjoyed my first long run in a few weeks.
I need to figure out what to do next ... First I have to sort this hamstring problem out but I put 100% faith in my osteopath.
Quite pleased to see yesterday was my highest ever marathon wava: 74.56. My 6 year old PB was only 72.94.
wow lots of catching up
giselle's birthday went fabulously
chick wow wow wow what a post and what an amazing run you had! Great photo
Benjy enjoy your run with or without storm!
LMH hope you get an lsr in
Dustin enjoy the easy
Alehouse, nice park running enjoy today
SC Love your report and what pacing for the y man!
Ollie nice to see you, sounds like busy times ahead
What 2 miles recovery d&d early
why long (for me) hilly off road with a mate Sunday am, 6.75 miles and 3.5 miles on Saturday
last hard: this morning
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good monday all
What: 5 km, 100 m on, 100 m recovery
Why: my "easy" session at club! Did it in 25:50 so not so easy!
Last hard: Saturday
Lyrics: yes
Hope you didn't get too wet out there. Glorious evening by the time I got out.
Have a lovely evening all
Sorry, not been on much. Did a 24 on Sat, 3:10. Feeling pretty good. Tapering now for a few weeks.
Great selfie with medal Chick well done!!
Miles makes smiles.
