Monday 16th March 2020 - Everybody's talking and no one says a word
in Training
Morning.
Lyrics - Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Hope you're not too sore this morning RFJ.
I've arranged to borrow P's dog Hazel! Though it's looking as though I might be going to work a bit more than usual - at least in the short term.
What: hopefully short and easy
Why: I want to enjoy it whilst I can
Last hard: feeling for my physio when SA decided to shut its borders to us
Last rest: 16/3

If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lyrics: no
Yesterday's were Charlie Rich with Behind Closed Doors.
What: probably about half an hour
Why: will see how legs feel. Usually run with M74. Doubt that that will happen for the foreseeable.
Hope you are ok today, RFJ.
Enjoy Hazel, LMH!
RFJ - well done on the top 20 finish!
OH- a shame about the wedding, but huge congrats on the pot collecting!
Ale - sounds like a great time was had at the 85th
Chick - lovely pics and at least a decision made on two Oceans.
LmH - I hear you about the shopping, local big Tescos was half empty of goods on Saturday. I'm just carrying on as normal.
London I guess was inevitavble. I'm going to defer. The local Fleet half marathon which is normally hugely popular and scheduled for yesterday was cancelled on Saturday morning. I guess that's the way of it. I expect Mont Blanc (end of June) will also get canned.
My club host a junior track meeting in early April. Think that's getting binned, we have a meeting tonight to decide. Main reason really is that most officials are at the "at risk" end of the age spectrum and why should we put them in a difficult situation.
What - easy run at some stage. In work, but probably the only one as about 80% are working from home
Why - recovery after the weekend
Last rest - 17/02
Last hard - Saturday/Sunday
Saturday was 12x200m hill reps in a boggy field. Tough going but hugely beneficial for leg strength. Tiptoed round the puke zone. 8 miles in total. Sunday qute a few pals ran the Fleet half route, I opted for a hilly trail run and teh lanes and fields were near deserted. 16 miles & legs seem to behave too.
Sorry for any confusion, I was referring to you thinking of borrowing the pigs Hazel, P's dog's name is not Hazel.
Is your M74 friend self-isolating already Alehouse?
Just back from my walk, lovely morning - definitely trying to make the most of the freedom and normality whilst it lasts.
I also thought P's dog was called Hazel! And to add to the confusion I actually haven't heard from M74 as yet so don't know what is happening! I will knock on his door at 9:15 to see if he is coming out to play!
What: 33 mins with M74
Why: he was available but we don't know how much longer that this will happen.
It was a very isolated run and we passed three dog walkers and were passed by two cyclists. Not sure what the risk is in that re Covid-19. He is going to follow scientific advice (he was a scientist) but does have a couple of queries such as running (slow runs to maintain fitness which will surely help rather than hinder recovery from catching anything) and also his allotment, which is usually very productive and will reduce the need to go to the shops from around May or June. And of course there are health benefits of being out in the fresh air! He is keen to do the right thing...but we don't really know what the right thing is!
Re London, away in the Lakes from London weekend to the following, so could go up a day later, but tbh, its XC season by then and I've no interest mara training for 12-15 weeks again over the summer.
I'd rather defer.
Rfj well done y’day, hope you are ok after the fall
Re not being able to run, I dread to think what I would do!!
Hazel great running
OH wow well done, great bling!!
Chick what a beautiful photo, sorry to hear about the cancellation, have a lovely time there though!
Alehouse, thanks for the recipe, I have bought in for vegan ones now, don’t fancy the shopping trip again! Oh me too with the staying in!!
Lyrics no
Hazel that has made me laugh about the 4 legged comment!!
Alehouse I am sure your friend m74 knows what will work for him, glad you got out together today
dustin, I don't blame you at all. must seem eerie at work!!
what: short run done this morning - bit more later
why: wanted to, legs need to loosen a bit more
last hard: this am
last rest: 31/12/16
keep well all
Usual Monday night loop later.
Yesterday's XC was quite hard (and unnecessary as it happened, my name was already engraved, LOL)
Still uncertainties ahead ...

Lyrics nope
A friends son in Uni in Cardiff went down with it and was really ill but has recovered and can go home on Friday.
Keep safe and keep running if you can
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
What: 15 min glute work plus a few walks
