Morning.
Lyrics - When it's not always raining there'll be days like this
Nice to see the progress RFJ.
Not a great night for me and I'm tired, taking MiL for afternoon tea with BiL and his partner so a few stress busting miles are called for legs willing. Not sure how many as I'm tired. Last week was my highest mileage of the year so far and I'd like another couple of big weeks before the taper if possible, though most of all I'd like a holiday or at least a weekend away, it feels like a long time since the last one.
Hope any mum's are spoilt today.
What: easy miles
Why: not capable of more
Last hard: saying goodbye to the good weather
Last rest: 27/1

Good weather here!
What: 5.3k at a reasonable pace
Why: sun seems to speed me up.
Lyrics: non
Last hard: parts of now
Lyrics: no
Last rest: yesterday
It was always a gamble and tight with times so to be honest not that bothered about yesterday hence didnt run last night. It gets rid of my last rest day streak which was actually becoming a problem.
Bike shows are ok.
Some decent park running yesterday by the looks of things!
Gobi - my sympathies with public transport letting you down, very familiar with that!
LmH - I know you thrive on high mileage but don't become a slave to it, certainly if you're mentally tired too.
What - Steady 10 trail miles
Why - stretch the legs out
last rest - couple of weeks
last hard - this weekend.
Yesterday was long running with 3x village club runners for their first 20 miler. So the target pace was sub 10s, we averaged 9:48s on a 50/50 road/trail route with a few ups and downs. OK not a 'hard' pace for me, but it still ended up being over 3.5 hours counting the jog there and back to the meet point.
Needless to say the pub in the evening involved more sitting than standing!
Nice time on feet Dustin.
Breezy again here too chicksta but not as bad as it was fortunately.
Was it push bikes or motorbikes Gobi?
What: a walk
Why: getting out and about
Lyrics: nope
Hope you're having a good holiday ale
Have a great evening all
7.25m run this morning with no issues, first three with Mrs RFJ who at the end took a really nasty fall... plenty of road rash on elbow, knees and face and damaged pride, but otherwise she is ok.
Looking to build a bit more miles in this next cycle and see how that affects my leg, but feel good and strong at present
Enjoy the Hols Ale
Take care
6 months is a long time Gobi.
Nice time on feet run Dustin - hope the pub was fun.
Ouch for Mrs RFJ, good she is not badly hurt.
Hope everyone has had a good Sunday.
What: rest day and an airing of the paraglider for the first time in months
Why: 88 km week Mon-Sat to finish the month on a total of 208 miles - anything over 200 is quite a bit by my standards. Need to get some airtime.
Last rest: today
Last hard: conquering the nerves at take-off
Lyrics: no
For Eiger fans, midday today.
