Morning.
Lyrics - Everyone's got a combination
If you put in the time
We are forecast a wet day - I don't like winter :-(
What: short and easy/maybe gym later
Why: tapering/weekly visit
Last hard: knowing what to do for the best
Last rest: 27/7
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Sorry Wabo, but LMH got the lyrics up first! Not that I know them.
Thoughts with you, obviously, Wabo.
What: have a-g treadmill booked
Why: only way I can run
Dentist first.
Weather foul at present. Hope it improves so that my drive gets finished.
Well done yesterday, Team RFJ!
It's not looking good for any sustained dry periods here Alehouse. I was soaked on my run.
Happy holidays Hazel, but it could have got off to a better start!
Glad Park Run duties / runs were complete: Emz, Chick , RFJ
OH - enjoy the catching up
Ale - ouch, more stretches , less running, not my idea of fun...
LmH - I'm possibly the last person to ask nutritional advice from....but hope you find a solution that works!
RFJ - well done on the family racing yesterday
What - easy recovery
Why - Basingstoke HalfM yesterday. Despite warnings of strong winds and heavy rain we woke to cloudless skies, nothing more than a light breeze and brilliant sunshine!
Not my finest run, but given hit and miss training, various knee/glute niggles and general lethargy, just about broke 1:40. It's a bumpy course so a few minutes slower than a flatter race, but I'm usually a minute either side of 1:35. Gave me the kick up the backside I probably needed...The pleasing point is that despite feeling tired, the pace didn't drop over the closing miles.
last rest - 9 days
last hard - yesterday.
Anyone know why Jamaica were reinstated in the women's 4x4 when they clearly didn't line up properly on the changeover....
Hazel ha didn't think of that when setting the lyrics! They were local boy in the photograph stereophonics.
Lmh sorry to hear you got so wet!
Wabo hugs and thoughts are with you and your oh.
Chick glad your dad is ok.
What: having some baby friends over (with the mums!) And hoping to get out for a walk later
Why; trying to have some semblance of a social life/depends when council comes to collect sofa as to when I'll get out/weather
Last hard: getting Lucas to settle, he's being really fussy after feeds last night and today
Lyrics: nope
Made a tasty chocolate cake this morning for my guests
Have a lovely day all
Enjoy the cake, visitors and walk, Emz!
Well done yesterday, Dustin! Re Jamaica, there were some strange track refereeing decisions at the Worlds, not least the Ingebrigsten thumping incident! I suspect Jamaica were re-instated because they gained no significant advantage that affected the race.
What: A-g treadmill after a reasonable amount of stretching:
Why: nearest thing to real running
Sounds as though there's nothing wrong with your endurance Dustin and you hadn't targeted it as a race had you?
Better than not running Alehouse. Hope there are no repercussions.
Arrived home to find my VLM acceptance magazine waiting for me.
Hope you enjoyed the get together and made it out for a walk emzap.
I would suggest too that if GB had taken the inside line, and Jamaica forced wider, we MAY have made up the deficit so I do believe they gained an advantage.
I've seen teams DQd in the Southern athletics leagues for this , advantage or otherwise immaterial.
Oh and good work on the AG T/M
LmH - not a target no. I've set my mind on a sub 90 now at Fleet (March).
Why do we do this to ourselves...???
Yes, Chick, remind us how many days ago you ran a marathon...
And hope you are backing off, LMH!
I am Alehouse. How's everything feeling?
Couldn't motivate myself out to the gym this afternoon so that will now need to happen tomorrow all being well.
Anyone else waiting on a VLM place?
Baby and cake successful but Luke very unsettled today so walk not yet done (and it's raining!).
I thought the main point of the walk was to settle young babies! I remember walking around the village at 5 in the morning trying to do just that!
I won't say how everything feels until tomorrow, LMH!
Meant to say that the purpose of the dentist visit was to check whether I need anything major doing before I start on the bisphosphonates for the osteoporosis. Unfortunately I have to have the roots of a molar removed on Thursday: I knew it was going to have to come out at some stage but it has now become more urgent. Not looking forward to that!
Sorry to hear that Alehouse. Hope all is well tomorrow.
Situation same we're all sleep deprived
Hope all is good with everyone x
