Morning, just!
Lyrics: My baby makes me proud
Lord, don't she make me proud
Sadly these lyrics are all too appropriate I believe!
What: will be a short run of some description
Why: struggled Saturday so need to back off a little
A very successful dinner with lots of people who hadn't seen one another since our 50th dinner in 1975! A couple of excellent speakers including John Whetton who some will have heard of: Olympic 1500 final in 1964 and 1968, and European Champion in 1969, plus three European indoor titles. He spoke mostly about his almost daily training with Ron Hill, even though their events (1500 and marathon) were in many ways poles apart. That was our 95th anniversary dinner and a couple of us have started making plans for the 100th!
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

I'm glad that a good time was had Alehouse and I hope that many of last night's attendees can make the 100th event.
It is very wet here, this not marathon training is proving easier than I was expecting so far - we will probably go to the gym and then I may try a short run if the weather has improved.
What: something or nothing
Why: strange days
Last hard: making sense of people and the world
Last rest: 14/3
Lyrics - no.
Oh what a shame about your daughter's wedding. When will they make a decision?
Lmh yes easy to stay inside in this weather.
What: maybe a walk but will have to see
Why: not feeling the love at the moment
Last hard: it's been tough for a while
Lyrics: nope
Just really hoping those with symptoms do self isolate. I've already had a number of people I know being quite blasé and mentioning they may not bother...
Really need to get out in the garden but a little someone and the weather are not helping.
Have a lovely day all
Glad the night went well alehouse, enjoy the short run
Lyrics yes indeed
Lmh hopefully this gives your knee some respite, enjoy the walking. I'm going to make those brownies, who was the lady again?
Emzap you've had a run of it all, maybe a walk will make things feel better
What short run
Why legs feeling yesterday!
Last hard yesterday
last rest 31/12/16
Yesterday was my forrest Gump day and I forgot until the second race!!
Much postponed but going ahead today
Lots of hard in the world
Didn't do much after parkrun yesterday
Lyrics no
Glad your anniversary dinner went ahead successfully AH
Hope you have better weather for the xc than we have here OH.
Just back from 2.75 miles the legs needed I think!
Ale Glad dinner was a success and hopyou all make the 100th event!
What 6.30
Why: Because in a mad world one thing is certain a runner will run.
Last hard: World events
lyrics: Yes
Madness that people would not self isolate what selfishness!
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
Think this is what you are looking for LMH/Wabo

I never made them as they have got chocolate in. May have time to adapt the recipe over the next few weeks!
Off to the fitness suite plus a short run shortly!
I'm not sure how well I'd cope if I was told I couldn't leave the house for seven days or longer if I wasn't feeling quite ill Poppy but I would stay away from other people.
I presume that was the correct recipe! Chocolate: gave it up for Lent in 1999. Now can't even stand the smell of it! Makes me feel quite ill!
I'm not entirely sure what self-isolation means in that I can go out of my house onto the river bank for a run and not see a sole, or certainly not be within 2 metres of them for more than a few seconds. It would drive me daft to stay inside for a whole day, never mind the FOUR months that has been mentioned for the over 70s and the most vulnerable!
Short run was short: legs a little battered, evenly, after yesteday's xc.
For loyalty and duggedness rather than speed I took home the MV40 trophy for XC series - my first and likely only ever silverware.
Possibly not many more races for a while.
Beautiful chicksta - soak it up.
How are things in your household today emzap? Is Lucas on the mend?
Great photo Chicksta
22m for me in the week so average for me at present, was nice to get in the top 20 at SevenFields Parkrun yesterday, mainly as quite a few stayed away... so 19th in 24:49...
Also has a biggish MS fall just before too, so aching a bit today, but snuck in 6.37m
Take care all
