Morning.
Lyrics - Well Johnny's got a car he drives it much too fast
I hope he doesn't keep you waiting too much longer emzap and that you managed to get some sleep last night.
Alehouse likes his anti-grav treadie RFJ, amazing thing to have access to even if there is a cost attached. Hopefully it will be a very long time before you feel in need of the facilities.
OH does seem to be an infrequent visitor at the moment, hope it's just the decorating keeping him busy.
What: short and easy
Why: tapering
Last hard: finding a positive outlook
Last rest: 27/7
Yesterday's lyrics - Drive - The Cars.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Did manage to get some sleep despite finding out I have low sodium blood levels just before bed. We asked to hold off decision making until this morning to allow us some sleep first. Still no signs of baby though I'm getting the full works.
Did 8 km yesterday! Walking is helping my sanity. No doubt more in store for today!
Any more news lmh? Hopefully you hear something today, it's day 2 isn't it?
Have a lovely day all.
LmH - look on the bright side - you now have a story when you get those " have you been in an accident that wasn't your fault?" calls for years to come...
Emz - ...and squeeze....
RFJ - good repping
I too was wondering where OH had wandered off to..
What - steady lunchtime
Why - recovery run - Did the grassy (hilly) reps yesterday 12x400s, each lap had three short "up and downs" with 200 easy
Last rest - 3 1/2 weeks
last hard - yesterday
Charity day again at work for 9/11, Can't believe it's been 18 years...
rfj ms centre sounds good and as you say its nice to know its there
emzap I hope bubs says hello today x Wow you are doing some walking!!!
18 years dustin flip!!!! That is mad, enjoy your steady
LMH I don't know the lyrics, enjoy the short and easy
what: 20 mins later
why: lots to do
last hard: yesterday am
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good day all
Time flies, Dustin...
Hope OH is OK.
Don't think many women where birth is imminent would walk 8k, em! That's amazing. Fingers crossed you're OK, despite sodium levels being low.
RFJ: Looks like the MS centre is very well equipped. Good to know that the option is there.
Hope you smash your half on Sunday to brighten up your spirit, LMH
What: 12 miles
Why: final MLR
Last hard: finding my legs - I think I have snatched poppy's treacle legs. Overall pace wasn't so bad (8:40ish) - I just didn't feel the love today and my arhtritis hurt too
Last rest: Monday
Lyrics: familiar but no
I don't like tapering at the best of times Hazel and could definitely do with more miles at the minute but I baked a fruit cake for OH yesterday and am planning to get my xmas cake baked today so trying to make good use of the extra time. Hope your strides go well. No crash related aches and pains to complain of.
I can remember watching it unfold as if it were yesterday Dustin, can't believe it's been that long.
How long until Snowdonia Wabo?
waving to Hazel, wabo and LMH - xposted with all of you
Hope the car assessment doesn't take too long, soooo annoying
Lyrics: no
You wouldn't want to be walking here, Emz! Pouring...again. Not cricket weather, Hazel! Due to clear up pm but whether they can get the outfield fit for play is another matter.
What: anti-grav treadmill
Why: RFJ reminded me! Didn't go as well as I had hoped. Even at 85% bodyweight I could feel the hamstring after 10 minutes. Back to the stretching, strengthening and cross training.
What are you planning long run wise Wabo?
We weren't forecast any rain but it didn't stop it pouring down just as I was about to go for my run Alehouse - so I got my xmas cake in the oven instead and fortunately it had dried up by the time that was baking. Sorry to hear that your hamstring is still so bad.
Car is being assessed as I type. I have no particular attachment to it but it would be less faff if it's repairable so fingers crossed.
If the car is to be repaired would you get a courtesy car in the interim?
I can smell the cake!
3km walked so far whilst we tried to get my head around having the IV cannula inserted for an NaCl drip. I've been so patient with the needles but there's a limit and I reached it, so need a bit of time to get my head around it. I really wish I didn't have this phobia!
Ale hope it dries out for the cricket!
alehouse boo to the hamstring
lmh fingers crossed re car
Hi chick!!
Yes Alehouse, if it's repairable I should get a courtesy car. Windy here too and decidedly grey. Smells good I must say - should be done soon.
Don't let life get in the way of these last long runs Wabo - you need to put yourself first and make them happen.
1403hrs - garage has just called to say that the estimate is 63% of the value of the car so they can't make the decision to repair it (has to be 59% or less) but also can't say that it's definitely going to be written off as it's so close to the threshold so they have to get a second opinion from a third party which may come back this afternoon or could be tomorrow. Things just don't seem to be getting any better :-(
I was ready to say yes 3 hours ago and have been waiting for a consultant since last night. We've said if we don't see one by 4 we are leaving for a walk as I can't sit here all day. I'm going insane! Have to be back for 5 so want to take the opportunity for fresh air whilst I can! Good news is nightmare neighbour has been moved to another room
Wabo that's a lot to fit around the long runs! Good on you for getting them in.
That's pants emzap. Hope you managed to get some fresh air and stress relief. I'm glad your inconsiderate neighbour has gone, hope the replacement is better. It's frustrating because I can't move forward. There is a banger in the village that I have it in mind to buy as a short term solution but obviously I don't want to get someone to look at it with me etc if I'm not going to go ahead with it because mine is being repaired and I can have a courtesy car.
Going for two easier days now before the 17 Saturday
Spent a few hours at cricket this afternoon: by 2 o'clock the rain had disappeared and it was a pleasant sunny, but windy, watch. Possibly more tomorrow but the forecast is, you will be surprised to learn, for rain.
No news from Emz...
Glad I could remind you Ale :-)
Thanks for the comments all
Another 4.78 in the bag tonight, nice and easy.... off deep down west with work to Penzance tomorrow and back on Friday... joys
Take care all
Lmh can you get mark to look with you and say you'll decide later? Or wait to see what the outcome is for your car?
Sorry ale I did press post for this earlier but it obviously didn't post! Glad you got some sunshine
