Morning.
Lyrics -
I can just imagine you and me
Running out of steam
Pleased to hear that Jnr is ok RFJ.
I've been making a light rye loaf that I think the lemon curd will compliment very well emzap - looking forward to testing the theory later It is a chilly, grey, wet start to the day here with heavy rain forecast until midday, definitely not conducive to a longer run when I have options to do it later in the week and I'm not 'training' so after a full waterproof walk with Grace I shall head out for a few miles, could go to the gym but I'd rather get wet than sweaty on a day like today, running on the treadie is generally a last resort as it just doesn't make me feel as good as outside miles do.
What: something easy
Why: see above
Last hard: waiting for the summer
Last rest: 14/6
Yesterday's lyrics - Deadlines and Commitments - The Killers.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Progression
Oh dear, RFJ! What a worry. Glad to hear jr. is OK now.
LMH: Fresh rye loaf plus lemon curd, yum! I'm drooling all over my Keyboard. I feel similar regarding treadmill runs although they do help me with my speedwork as I'm prone to daydreaming when I run which in turn means my pace drops Can't do that on a treadie or you fall off the back. I love running in warm rain though …
We seem to suffer similar temps, Hazel. Running in the woods sounds lovely.
Good running with a dodgy tummy, Poppy.
Hope the blood test goes well, em.
What: 10 miles with 5 @ LT pace. I couldn't face 10 on the treadmill so I did 4.5 outside (sweltering!) and then jumped onto the gym treadmill for the tempo bit. Went better than I thought. I'm always quite apprehensive before a session.
Why: week 5 of P&D
Last hard: sleeping - had a really rubbish night
Last rest: 25/5
Lyrics: yes and I wish it would
Chick and hazel I think your warm weather is coming here later on the week.
WP hope your tummy is better soon.
Wabo you are very good. Also Aww to Reggie!
Sorry to hear that your stomach is still playing up Poppy.
I hope it's getting easier for you emzap.
You are most welcome to the rain too Hazel - I'm not sure whether to log today's effort as a run or swim!
That feeling of dread is one of the things that stops me following a schedule chicksta, that and the inability to hit any of the prescribed paces. I'd rather enjoy my running than dread sessions and then feel disappointed when I didn't do what it said (not suggesting for a minute that's how it is for you).
Today I was well up for it, on other days when I totally don't feel the love or a niggle is rearing its ugly head I'll back off. I agree that not hitting the paces or cutting a session short makes you feel pants but on the other hand if things go well you have that warm glow for the rest of the day. Certainly won't do the 15 mile MLR that's on my schedule for tomorrow. Will bring Thursday's recovery run forward instead. After all I want to stay in one piece.
I am shattered today, so taking a rest day
hope stomach issues sort soon WP
Take care
Short run and a fair amount of stretching d&d.
The weather! Well it didn't come to the rescue of England's men's cricketers in London; anywhere north of London saw no cricket today and I saw the torrential rain in the Derby area on TV which saved the West Indies' women from another potential defeat. Stayed dry for my run but raining again now.
Cold here as well: heating on briefly. Thought it was me but it was on in the changing rooms and also had been earlier in the alehouse when I popped in. Did you post the 10 degrees by second class post Hazel or Chick? If so it might arrive by Thursday.
