Morning.
Lyrics - There's always an I'm sorry
The standard must have been incredibly high OH. Hope you enjoy today's race and the ceilidh (I think that's tonight?).
20C Alehouse? Send some my way!
Keep it easy today Hazel - spend some time planning your holiday rather than gardening.
A grey and damp start to the day here but it is forecast to brighten up later and the wind has dropped so hopefully it will be a little more inviting by the time I'm ready to run (weekly shop to do and Grace to walk first on a Saturday). I reluctantly have to say that my leg actually feels worse since my last physio visit but it's still ok to run on so hopefully it's just sorting itself out.
What: short and easy/gym
Why: I want to/haven't been yet this week
Last hard: getting my legs right
Last rest: 4/5
Yesterday's lyrics - Thoughts On A Grey Day - Fleetwood mac.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

A lot cooler here today, LMH! Grey and the threat of rain.
Take it easy, Hazel!
Enjoy your run to the boat and beyond, and back, OH!
Go well racers/parkrunners!
What: steady parkrun plus a few ks before and after
Why: not ready to do hard
Lyrics: no
What: today's a rest day. Though I'm going to Derby so I'm not sure it's really a rest (must remember my baby on board badge for the train!). Then Eurovision tonight
Why: meeting ex-colleagues. We live all over the place and Derby's quite central
Last hard: sleeping. Up at 5.30 due to back ache
Lyrics: nope
Lmh that doesn't sound good. I hope it's like you say.
Have a lovely Saturday all and happy parkrunning
Em: Baby onboard badge?? that is a new one on me
LMH:I hope the leg improves for you
Ale: Enjoy the parkrun.
What: 4.25 miles
Why: Because I could
Last hard: past 2 days with virus
Lyrics: Nope
I was so pleased I could run as I did not feel up to it but thought lets see even if just a mile.Pace pretty nippy so nothing lost it seem's.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Glad you were able to run today Poppy.
It's trying to brighten up here Alehouse though it's not going to be warm.
Just grey and overcast here: the expected rain has yet to fall. Not cold, but certainly not warm.
What: parkrun plus 4k
Why: Saturday. Ran one second quicker than last week but it seemed a much harder effort. Needed help from you at just past 3k, Emz rather than the other way round! Am struggling with a stomach that feels strained and afterwards one hip and both glutes were not quite right. Suspect it is from too much gardening rather than running. And have just done another session in the garden. Rain needed to save on watering.
Enjoy Eurovision, those who are interested; I can't say that I am these days.
Go well tomorrow, Hazel, and other racers.
Early night here I hope: helping at Great Manchester half from 8 then move on to help at the 10k later. Last finishers will be around 4 so a long day expected. Cross-training?
visit to Andover parkrun today to pick up Jnr, 21:53 for me and 19:36 for him..... but throw back 10 years ago to the first international parkrun in Copenhagen in Denmark.... Jnr and me in the Tesco strips (Andover AC)... all good fun - that was just before I went sub 3:15 for the first time at Mara and on the day did an 18:12.... for 2nd... oh how times and speed change
