Morning.
Lyrics - That's great! It starts with an earthquake,
Good to hear that you're home emzap, sorry to hear about the ongoing illness. I'm not surprised your tonsillitis is flaring up when you're tired and rundown. That sounds tough with Lucas too. Can't do much other than let you know that you're in my thoughts.
Hazel - at least you know now and can plan accordingly. Strange times we're living in.
I bet you enjoyed that apart from the audience Alehouse.
Have to laugh how Trump has gone from 'it's just like the flu' to banning international flights..........or I would if it wasn't so scary that he's in charge of the USA!
Wondering if we'll get further measures introduced any time soon?
My knee doesn't feel too bad this morning but I haven't asked much of it yet. We had a very windy night, calmer now but due to pick up again shortly. I shall probably just walk even if the knee doesn't feel too bad as if Ashby is on I do want to run it.
What: probably nothing
Why: see above
Last hard: yesterday's run
Last rest: 10/3
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lyrics: no
What: short run/long fitness suite
Why: Thursday
Wondering how long it is before gyms, leisure centres etc are closed.
The landlord of my local is in Austria for the United game which is being played behind closed doors this evening, so he will no doubt watch it in a crowded bar. Not sure whether it is safer to be in a crowd in the open or inside. Better suspending all major sports competitions probably, sadly.
ITU places being prioritised for those most likely to survive in Italy.
Uncertain times ahead ...
Hope to complete Polar Bear Challenge today. Sun is shining and wind has dropped.
emzap, poor you and lucas - hope these days pass and things get easier soon!!
lmh it is all very strange and a bit worrying. Take care today
alehouse make the most of the gym, enjoy today
hazel nice running, yes my run was good with company because it was windy and cold and we both felt a bit weary!!
oh that ITU scenario sounds awful. Good luck with the PB Challenge
What: short run and tai chi (3rd day of doing) another run later
why: I need to loosen and lose weight ha ha
last hard: this am, blooming cold hands
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good day all
Perhaps you can still get the train tickets refunded. At least Deutsche Bahn are pretty accommodating even with early bird super saver tickets.
Oh dear, em. Ten times a day is loads. Hope things do settle for you.
OH: Enjoy the final swims of your polar bear challenge
Nice little tai chi streak, wabo. My new king of pain is into tai chi. Shame there are no classes in my gym.
What: nothing yet, maybe gym later
Why: bad night's sleep. We have another freak storm. It was battering our house all night and it's too treacherous to try and run outside.
Last hard: sleeping
Last rest: Monday
Lyrics: yes
Yesterday's were Early morning wake-up call, Flash and the Pan
Hazel - I would very much like to know that things are cancelled. I think something along the lines of banning mass participation events as a starter followed by closing colleges/universities then inevitably schools over a period of a few weeks would be a sensible course of action. Rest up and regroup, this is a stressful time for us all.
It's a dire situation OH - any cases reported on Orkney yet? Enjoy your swim.
I could definitely do with some loosening up too Wabo and the weight thing won't be long if I keep using my usual distraction activity of baking. LOL. I've been sending stuff in to Mark's work but it's looking as though that will be less of an option soon.
I'm not sure about gym's etc closing unless we go into a lock down situation Alehouse - they don't usually have that many people in at once. How does everything feel after yesterday's a-g run?
Emz - glad your home
LMH - consistent perhaps but no mileage really (2 runs over 15 miles this year)
Hazel - so mixed blessings with Hamburg then, I'm kinda hoping London is rescheduled...
There is a COBRA meeting today so I'd expect many events to be cancelled, and certainly expect professional football to continue behind closed doors for the forseeable...
For the race my club hold (end of June) we are already advertising there will be deferrals to the rescheduled or 2021 race, or allow transfers. Hopefully It's all done by then....
What - lunchtime run
Why - mileage
last rest - 17/02
last hard - Tuesday
I understand schools were contacted yesterday evening and told them to prepare home learning packs for the period up to Easter. Packs to be ready by tomorrow with the view to closing schools some time next week.
Not sure about the legs yet, LMH! They are up to working in the garden though. Extremely windy and my plastic greenhouse has been blown from one end to the other. Am currently trying to partially bury it!
Hope everyone is avoiding the plague
Lyrics yes
5 miles , middle 3 at threshold. Avoided the hail shower
Possibility they may get us all to wfh from next week....
What: short run d&d. Struggled.
Why: battered by the gales, plus legs feel battered after yesterday's exertions.
Fitness suite this evening.
All schools and colleges closed in the Irish Republic until March 27th.
Just had another half in May cancelled
What: walk to doctor to get tonsils checked
Why: suspected viral tonsillitis. Rest prescribed. Impossible with a small Lucas.
Last hard: swallowing, resting, getting meds into Lucas
In the words of Boris, "keep safe all and wash your hands"
