Morning.
Lyrics - Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Another nice day forecast for today. I caught the sun a little sat in the garden yesterday - surprising given how much I'm out every day. Tomorrow isn't forecast to be too bad but I'm not looking forward to it getting colder again after that.
OH - just substitute gf flour and some xanthan gum in your usual recipe.
Sounds like a nice day out emzap.
What: short and easy
Why: taper
last hard: sleeping
Last rest: 27/1
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lyrics: of course
What: about an hour
Why: Monday. Unfortunately it will be on my own as M74 is not available.
Go well RFJ! (Had my days mixed up: thought the race was yesterday!)
Hoping to get back to sleep now.
Race well Rfj
What: maybe a short walk but mostly driving
Why: have to get home
Last hard: well I ache all over this morning!
Lyrics: yes!
Lmh got another couple of days of this hopefully but yes agree, not looking forward to 9 next weekend!
Have a lovely day all
Have a good race RFJ.
Safe journey Empaz
Enjoy your run Alehouse
Lovely morning here too and also heading back home. Still on a rest due to not bringing my running gear and now itching to get back out.
Lyrics...yes ☺
Just waiting for it to warm up a little before heading out for my run:-)
RFJ - well bounced back after the 10k
Safe trips home to those travelling, hope there are no delays
Couple of clouds in the sky today, maybe it won't be the 23-24 we've had the past few days.
What - easy run
Why - recovery
last rest - 9 days
last hard - yesterday I guess, 12.5 miles on trail. Legs still not fully recovered from last week's marathon for any kind of distance. Slight calf niggle too - will monitor that.
lyric - think so, yes
What: 64 minutes
Why: wanted an hour plus. Got the bus with my shiny new bus pass to near Handforth Dean (OH will know it), and then largely on footpaths back home via a watering stop in Bruntwood Park, which is around half way. Will do this again, hopefully gradually extending the route. Net downhill, which helps! Longest run since Feb 13th.
Watch that calf, Dustin! My Achilles wasn't too happy in patches today: stretching needed.
Why: why not
Last hard: not getting any faster
Last rest: Wednesday
Lyrics: yes
I like that sort of route AH!
That sounds like a lovely morning OH.
Not as warm as yesterday here, sun not as bright and a bit of a cool breeze:-(
Over did it yesterday and badly tweaked my knee. Lesson learned on that front.
Had a lovely gentle plod of 3.4 miles today with my knee strap on. Was fine, will need to be like this all week I suspect.
I will run every day in April. I will run every day in April. Repeat etc.
Lyrics, yes.
Back to work tomorrow,first day of work in April.
Slight dilemma here - do I go and do my gym programme tomorrow or not do it this week? My instinct is to not let myself off, Mark says he wouldn't do it if he were me.
Lots of gardening followed by cooking (turning the left over lamb into a moussaka.or two). Back now aches rather badly: unusually will take an ibruprofen.
Take care Don!
Warm Monday evening 5k loop
Back now steadily improving.
Yeap Fridays race was a bad day at the office and not me, as confirmed today as a solid race ensued beating last years time and seeting a course PB for me.... last year was 37:43 and was hoping to hit about 38:45 today, however, conditions were good and I felt good and had a very solid consistant race which was undulating throughout and a mix of grass trails and hard packed paths with a tiny bit of concrete at the start and finish.... Splits 734, 7:26, 7:22, 7:30, and 7:20. to finish in 37:12... big bonus. Pic is of me coming to the end up the hill.... hence the hurt face.... very happy today, then went to watch my close hometown team Wycombe Wanders for a vital 1-0 win. good day.
Great parkrun time Donaldo and well done on getting the 15 miler done but do be careful with the knee.
April sun is strong already LMH - got burnt on Saturday myself. Good you can avoid the expo.
Hmm - more cake! Looks delicious OH. And a nice mixed run today by the sounds of it. Good news on the back.
Good news on the mileage and increasing running time Ale. I like doing out on public transport and back on foot.
Nice hiking emzap. Hope the travelling went well.
Ditto to Daisy, rest from running will have done you good post mara.
Hope that is just a minor calf niggle Dustin.
Great race result RFJ and a nice pic too.
What: a few evening miles d&d post travelling home from PIL (1.5 hours so not too bad a journey)
Why: enjoying the peace and quiet after an afternoon with 3 lively nephews
Last hard: realizing that my legs were far too fresh for 2 days post race - definitely didn't run it hard enough - bloody heat!
Last rest: Good Friday
Lyrics: no
