Morning!
Lyrics: I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
What: short run, long Pilates type work
Why: work gets in the way/Tuesday routine
Could do with closing my eyes: poor night's sleep.
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Yesterday's lyrics - Here I Go Again - Whitesnake
Me too Alehouse (bad night). I was just trying to decide on lyrics.
If only they'd get rid of Jezza Benjy........
Hazel - Grace is a sort of lurcher, daddy was a three quarter greyhound (we think the missing 25% was probably collie or spaniel) and mummy a big working whippet so she looks like a slightly short, slightly stocky greyhound. When younger she loved to run with us but she's thirteen and a half now so those days are long gone unfortunately.
Busy day there OH.
Hope you feel better today RFJ. Is it the new job wearing you out?
Did you find your keys Wabo?
Are you over whatever it was now Gobi?
What: hopefully easy miles
Why: not 100% so will see how I go
Last hard: feeling the pressure to pick up the training for London
Last rest: 14/1
Lyrics - yes.
Friday's lyrics were get me to the church on time from my fair lady.
What: nothing. Not even walking
Why: small accident yesterday left me being rescued from Cape point and in the hospital with a suspected broken foot (luckily it's not broken but as I can't put any weight on it, that doesn't make much of a difference right now).
Last hard: falling. I passed out too and have my hubby a bit of a scare
Lyrics: of course!
Lmh that is a fantastic result, well done!
Villiersdorp was tough ale! Trail and very hilly. Beautiful though. Did just over 30 min, 2nd lady and 9th overall. 41 runners there(mostly Africaans speaking) and 21 women.
Chick yay parkrun in Hamburg!
Gobi hope you're feeling better.
May see if I can get in the pool later though I may need to be carried there!
Have a lovely day all
Benjy: I don't listen between 12 and 2. Ever. I am, though, very much a radio programme: usually 2 or 5.
Work beckons.
I have to switch off between 1200-1400hrs too Alehouse. I've introduced MiL to having the radio on as company too and she's found it helpful but also dislikes Jeremy Vine.
Emz - Yikes that sounds unpleasant, hopefully it repairs quicker than you anticipate
Hazel - nice long one yesterday
LmH / Benjy - you asked about races. I'm once again leading the club's marathon sessions so tentatively planning on doing one or two. As you know the knee was causing problems (about 85% back to normal now) so although I have the endurance, the speed isn't quite back yet so have no huge time expectations.
I'm in the Great Welsh Marathon (April 14th) and may do Milton Keynes comfortably (early May) as a couple of first timers I'm coaching are doing that one. Likely to do Brecons mid May for fun.
Before that, Cross Country - Southerns next weekend (Parliament Hill) and am entered into the Nationals (Leeds) but not sure I'll do that one. I'm also in Fleet Half (March).
What - marathon training, miles plus 10x100s
Why - Schedule (P&D)
Last rest - December
Last Hard - Sunday
Why: Miles. And I need to get to work.
Lyrics: Nope!
Keys are found! They sort of were where I thought but had slipped off the hook!
Hazel great run yesterday, enjoy the social one today
LMH course they were the lyrics yesterday! Kicking myself, enjoy your easy miles, hope sleep improves
Alehouse yes to your lyrics, have a nice run and pilates
dustin enjoy your marathon training!
Emzap oh no poor you, I am guessing the fall made you pass out? Hope you recover speedily what a scare
espen, great commuting! gets good miles in too
what: 3.3 miles easy before work, terrible back ache at the moment
why: back, cos I carried Lyla downstairs and she is not a little 2 and half year old!!!!
last hard: this morning
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good day all
Hello
I have to be honest and say I am not 100% but I am eating and functioning pretty normally.
What: 70 mins of cadence work on the watt bike d&d - intervals running PM
Why: because I love the pain
Last hard: Sunday running with food poisoning
Last rest: October 31st
Lyrics: No
Blimey Emzap !!! Swift recovery I hope
LMH - marathon legs gone ?
Dustin - looks like a fun period coming up, I don't miss XC
Good news on the keys Wabo.
Nice schedule you have there Dustin.
I must admit I don't like Elaine either Benjy - she gets switched off too.
It's good to be flexible Hazel - hope you enjoy your social run.
Hamstring tweaky and stomach dodgy but it was quite nice out apart from being it blowy and I'm worried about the weather for the rest of this week with snow and possibly ice forecast so I ended up doing a probably not very sensible long run. I shall have to keep the hamstring moving this afternoon and hope for the best.
Glad you are feeling better Gobi.
Now have strapping to immobilise foot (turns out hospital should have done it yesterday, not just sent me home). Still no official diagnosis other than "not broken". Got crutches which we went to pharmacy and bought in the end and letter to show the airline! What a palava!
Another bad night sleep here again but think it is this cold.
Em: Goodness me be careful with that foot!!How are you feeling?
Dustin: a local one to me The Great Welsh I maybe doing the half.
Hazel: Your training is always so focused and thought out.I hope you can sleep better tonight.
Benjy: I hope your run went well was it 6 or 7?
LMH: that is good news on FIL.
What: 6 miles easy
Why: Because I could
Last hard: Tiredness
Lyrics: Yes
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Emz parkrun sounds good, not sure about your little accident though. hope you heal soon
Glad you found Keys Wabo
And good you are starting to return to normal Gobi
What - Intervals 5 x 600m off 300m rec
Why - Speed work
Last Hard - Today
Last Rest - Thurs
Take care
