Morning
Lyrics today: What do we conceal
What do we reveal?
What: Hoping to do 10 miles this morning
Why: didn't do enough yesterday
Last hard: sleeping but at least it means I'm up early enough for a proper run
Last rest: 17/9
Have a brilliant Friday, all

Yesterday's lyrics were The Rolling Stones with 19th Nervous Breakdown
What: gentle fitness suite and gentle short run
Why: I ache! Work first.

Just over 24 hours till the start - totally bricking it.

Officiating at the run legs of a biathlon tomorrow. Forecast: wet and wetter.
Great. At least it looks brighter for Sunday's half!
Good weekends everyone.

Chicksta:: Hope you enjoy the 10 miler and all steam has been let off.
What: Promised self a rest
Why: Bit knackered really
Last hard: Yesterday
Last rest: Forgotten
Lyrics: Hmm can't tell you or I'd have to kill you :-)
Hope you enjoyed your run chicksta, no need to be chasing miles at the minute though surely? You’ve just finished a successful marathon campaign so some time taking the pressure off and ticking over won’t hurt - or do you have another race planned?
If you feel you need a rest you probably do SC.
You’ll be fine Donaldo, relax and enjoy. The forecast sounds perfect.
I hope you’re not really feeling stressed Alehouse?
Dustin - maybe an actual rest day is due?
What happened in that mile Poppy?
What: Short and easy
Why: Not much choice
Last hard: Finding good running routes
Last res: 29/9
Lyrics - no.
Apologies for my absense
So I guess I went a bit quiet after my crash, just needed to focus on work and recovery. That all came to a head on Sunday
Has been a while, rehab took time and I didn't really use my TT bike this year but I returned to racing on Sunday at the Oulton park sprint duathlon, this is an ITU worlds qualifier and draft legal.
I finished 27th overall and won my Age Group, seem those early mornings on the watt bike and hours in the gym working out paid off.
My shoulder is still not perfect, I have a feeling it will now always just be a little fragile but the engine is just fine.
2019 is now all I care about as I want to do the Worlds and Euros in 2020 so hopefully no more crashing for a while unless it is into soft mud on a cross bike
What: hour on the watt bike AM run lunch and Sauna PM
Why: easy Friday is still just that
Last rest: feels like May or June when I started training properly
Last hard: yesterdays bike session
Lyrics: No
What: fitness suite and short run completed.
Why: building back slowly. Legs are tired still after Wednesday's a-g session. Rained the moment I started running!
Hope the forecast is right then, Don!
And no, not really stressed, LMH! Enjoy the holiday and don't worry about getting too many miles in.
Chick: what LMH said!
What: Rest
Why: taper
Last hard: a while!
Lyrics: nope
Went to cirque de Soleil Last night was great! (Sorry a formatting, phone playing up!)
Don good luck tomorrow.
Have a lovely evening all
I’ve mentally split the run into a 14 and two 10s. Easy!!
Absolutely no reason to push it at the minute then chicksta. It’s not really long post marathon. I’m not looking forward to marathon training through the winter.
Glad to hear it Alehouse (the lack of stress rather than the rain).
Hope it happens for you Gobi. Shoulders take a long time, if I recall correctly you didn’t do any structural damage? If so there’s a good chance it will contyto improve for a while yet.
