Morning! And a particularly chilly one.
Lyrics: Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
What: fitness suite a.m. and run p.m.
Why: put some weight through my Achilles plus the daily run, followed by family meal this evening.
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

I was lucky as pavements were clear of frost and ice car windscreen was clear on me leaving on my return hard frost!

No wind here either Gobi so whilst cold as you say nice running conditions.
Enjoy the easy Dustin.
I use a buff quite a bit Poppy, my throat is almost permanently sore but I do find keeping it warm helps and of course it means I have an emergency ear warmer, I'd have been too hot in a hat this morning though looking at the forecast tomorrow could be a different story.
Fitness suite d&d. Run soon, although Achilles is not at its best.
alehouse, sorry to hear your achilles is not at its best, take care, but happy birthday!! Have a lovely evening

10 Miles for me this morning, beautiful day. Some hair ice is growing in our garden, quite rare, very nice. Needs a particular fungus to grow, very interesting if you look it up.
Distance wise, this was the most for ages and my knee is suffering. Physio again on the 9th, meanwhile, lots of rolling.
Lyrics, yes indeed!
Nice pace chicksta.
Sounds as though you've been getting some good training in Wabo.
Happy New Year to everyone.
I've lurked on here for some time, I'm pretty crap at the lyrics but like the general format of the thread.
Hope everyone has had a good if cold day, in particular Alehouse - Happy Birthday.
Just the standard format for today, good way to stop me waffling too much.
What: 14k GA (sorry, I work in km - that's around 8.7 miles for mileage fans)
Why: Beginning week 6 of P&L multi distance.
Last hard: starting work again after the Christmas break
Last rest: 1/1 due to race on 31/12
Lyrics: yes (for once..)
Great to see you on here, Hazel! Stick around! Where in Switzerland?
And thanks for the birthday wishes everyone.
I also use kms. Most races are now in ks. (The real reason is that I am now officially old and I now run a k at the same speed as I used to run a mile. But don't tell anyone.)
Pleasant meal with family; alehouse later perhaps.
January's 2nd qualifying swim for Polar Bear Challenge
Still a Public Holiday here.

Lyrics no
Hi HazelCH. Whereabouts are you in Switzerland? (My youngest daughter is in Zürich)
