Morning.
Lyrics - When I get home it's late at night,
Your salad sounds nice emzap. Where is the country show? I love things like that. Hope you find something nice you can have.
Hazel - weeding is an absolute no for me, can't kneel, can't bend well, shoulder doesn't work properly - I'd cripple myself very quickly! At least planting the beans is practical (they are in bags so no weeding required!). Sensible to wait for your legs to sort themselves out in their own time.
It's a dull start to the day here with heavy rain forecast from 0900-1400hrs so by the time I've done the weekly shop and walked Grace it's likely to be coming down, will make getting out of the door for my run harder but also make it easier just to do a short one.
What: short and easy
Why: creaky knees, tired, inclement weather
Last hard: building the miles after Yeovil
Last rest: 14/6
Yesterday's lyrics - Ready To Run - Dixie Chicks.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lmh hope the knees stop creaking!
My DIL bump is growing nicely, saw them all last night. She's 22 weeks.
What park run then Hyde park all day
Why it's the plan
Last hard 2 miler after work last night, very hot
Last rest 31/12/16
Anymore park runners today?
What: parkrun. Will probably fairly gentle with a km or two either side
Why: tired legs
Pouring here at present so probably on the way to you, LMH! Hope it doesn't get as far as Hyde Park!
Lyrics: no
Emzap, I had an over 50 check up thing once by a lady of similar build to yours yesterday, telling me I was on the heavier side of my scale!!!! Telling me to exercise, eat this easy that, I know what you mean!!! Think I was well within my healthy range lol
Hope you have a nice day in Hyde Park Wabo.
I think creaky knees and achey back can probably be attributed to yesterday's gardening - light as it was, hopefully an easy day today will sort them.
Which parkrun, Wabo? One you haven't done before I presume!
What: parkrun, plus 2k before and 2k after. 23:50 at Burnage: progressive run, gradually picking people off. Not the quickest of courses and ran reasonably within myself.
Why: decent training session.
Rained until I warmed up, then just a bit of refreshing drizzle. Poured shortly after the finish. Hopefully will dry up soonish. Hope it wasn't too wet for your run, LMH!
What 3 miles
Why Tapering
Last hard sleeping and heat.
No rain here at all sadly but a nice run.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
You are welcome to the rain Poppy - please feel free to take it!
All miles in the bank Wabo.
What: walking around the country show (Hanbury) and a couple of extra walks
Why: keeping going
Last hard: having a hungry melt down on the way home. I did have a nice scotch egg and falafel wrap whilst there but got seriously hangry on my way home.
Lyrics: nope
Hazel your veg patch sounds amazing, I'm jealous!
Wabo and ale good going at parkrun
Saw the most adorable Highland calves at the show plus some other great livestock. Really good food tent and bakery and crafts tent too. Some impressive show jumping and classic cars and steam engines. Was a good morning out
Mackerel salad tonight and my oh has found a microwaveable chocolate pudding to keep me happy!
Have a great day all
I like the sound of your country show emzap. Not sure how diabetic friendly chocolate pudding is though? I have a recipe for microwaveable chocolate pudding as well as for a banana pudding and jam or syrup (like steamed) puds if you'd like any of those? Or you could check out the Chocolate Covered Katie website if you don't know of it - she has lots of pud in a mug recipes.
Just popping in to say "Go well" to WP and OH tomorrow!
Glad you had a good day, Emz! Watching/listening to the match from OT: not happy with SA! Looks like they may beat the Aussies and England will end up meeting them at Edgbaston. And thanks for the support at parkrun: just before 3k today! Think I was asleep and needed waking up!
Furries? Cats? Or lionesses (who sadly lost).
Perfect weather from late morning, although a little cool for the South Africans and Aussies, most of whom seemed to be wearing hoodies.
Glad I could be of assistance ale
so short jog to Seaton parkrun for a 21:47 and 16th place
all good but busy here
Take care
You could get your dream final, Emz, and then one of your teams will win. (Probably end up being Aus v NZ now I have said that!)
We are sinking,
