Morning.
Lyrics - You get a thunderbolt from out of the blue
Enjoy your first Monday of freedom chicksta.
Shows my ignorance emzap - hope you've caught up on your sleep.
What: short and easy/gym
Why: at the moment I mostly have the day to myself
Last hard: sleeping and shifting this headache
Last rest: 27/11
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lyrics: no, but sound both familiar and appropriate.
Yesterday's lyrics were Captain Sensible with "Happy Talk". Originally from the South Pacific musical. And I'm trying to be sensible.
What: about an hour with my M73 friend
Why: may have taken leave of my senses as this will be the longest run since records began. (Well since May 2017 anyway).
Must take a look at some more of the Adrienne yoga clips.
Lmh I also always thought that. It's a long way away so it feels like there should be a big time difference!
What: 2.5 I'm on the beach, yoga and a walk later
Why: do what I can from here
Last hard: not getting chased by dogs on the beach
Last strange animal running companion: a seal. I think he was a pup and stuck
Lyrics: nope
Good luck with the run ale
Have a lovely day all
I think you'll be fine Alehouse.
I seem incapable of making decisions at the moment - how far to run, where to run, when to run............
Why: Gotta get them miles in.
Lyrics: Nope.
Enjoy your free Monday Chicksta. Nice long run yesterday.
Hope you can get that Next issue sorted soon RFJ.
What: 13 mile progressive long run later (gulp)
Why: P&L
Last rest: 1/1
Lyrics: another no
Sorry been awol all weekend
TR - welcome back
Benjy - good DIY skills
Don - nice pacing on those 800s
Emz- I am not at all envious of your trip
Espen - welcome aboard
LmH - Sorry to hear about the FiL, hoping that the running keeps the head clear
What - Easy run
Why - recovery. Saturday was County XC. Never expected to be as quick as last year even allowing for a runnable course rather than the gloop of last year. 7.2 miles of hard running with no real issues so on that basis it was pleasing. Well beaten by club mates and rivals that I'd normally be in front of, but I half expected that. The highlight of the day was a bronze medal for our Vet Men's team to go along with team medals in U17 & U20 age groups too.
16 very easy trail miles yesterday.
Last Rest - 2018
Last Hard - Saturday
What: 70 mins off road, d&d
Why: following M73. Will see tomorrow if I survived it; Achilles and calf weren't happy with a couple of ks on grass at one stage but felt better on firmer gravel. Grey weather and we both wore plenty, although the gloves did come off around half way.
60mph winds (but no thunderbolts)
Last hard: waiting for daylight
Lyrics:no
LMH: I hope today is a good day and you got your run sorted
Hazel: That sounds a tough run but you seem to cope well with the training
Ale: Wow that is some distance I hope no reaction tomorrow for you:-)
OH: That is some photo;-)
What: 8.20 miles
Why: Because I could
Last hard: Sleeping and knowing I would be later out running
Lyrics: Yes
Last rest: Last year;-)
All went well no problems and no Christmas lights to brighten up a dark morning.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
This is what it looks like on West coast of Orkney today (friend's photo). These cliffs are about 200 feet high.
Happy belated 29th to your twins alehouse, aka capt sensible

last hard: this am
last rest: 31/12/16

Glad there are no ill effects from the fall, Wabo!
Will you be open water swimming then, OH?
And hope you are making the most of your four day week, Chick. I very rarely work Mondays and ideally it will be my long run day.
I must have missed your fall Wabo, glad you're ok. What is Tiffany cake?
Hope there is no adverse reaction Alehouse.
Good result Dustin.
I'm just not doing decisions very well at the minute Benjy, brain still addled from lack of sleep and too many things to think about I think. Hope you had a good run.
That sounds like a tough run Hazel.
Nice miles Poppy.
Were you running late espen?
My run cleared my headache (more effective than any painkillers), work were fine about Friday, student I should have seen is fine, MiL has had an ok day, we're nearly through another one.
Two separate 4 mile runs for me today. Wanted to hit the ground running at work and had a few presentations to do so I figured if I was more awake than the audience, that would be a start. Used a head torch for the first time in forever so managed to get out on quiet country roads, which was nice. Then 4 miles post work as well.
Lyrics, nope.
Legs feel remarkably good at the moment: hope I can say the same in the morning!
Hope back to work went well, Don! I'm back tomorrow. And Wednesday. Then that's it for the week!
