Morning all
Lyrics:
I was out with the morning sun
Couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd take a walk
Yesterday's were Workin' for a livin', Huey Lewis
Ended up doing a little over 5 miles yesterday but it was quite cold. The sun came out when I was chained to my desk. I spent an hour in the garden in my lunch break though.
Looking sunny this morning so I'm going to head out soon for more of the same. Somehow I just don't see the point in proper training at the moment.
Dishwasher salt is the next loo roll then it seems
We're still low on flour and yeast in most supermarkets.
Shocking to read about the stupidity of some people, ale.
Comments
It took a while to warm up here too chicksta but it was lovely when it did which was also just before I needed to start work. I can post you a couple of sachets of yeast if you're desperate. No dishwasher here so no worries about the lack of salt - look for the bright side and all that.
What: short and easy
Why: hopefully stress relief
Last hard: finding running routes that son't increase stress
Last rest: 15/4
Lyrics - no.
There was a frost here yesterday morning but by mid afternoon we were in the 20s. Warmer first thing today and 20s expected again.
What: half an hour or so plus stretches plus gardening
Why: ticking over, plus need some more lawn prep (changing the shape so digging out borders) before 2 tonnes of top soil arrive, whenever that might be.
Lyrics: no
WP - loads of eggs, bought 3 boxes! As LMH suggests dishwasher salt is no biggie, I wash up a lot of things by hand anyway rather than leave the dishwasher half loaded.
Have to report an RFJ style incident for me yesterday: went for a long steady run at half 4 and was ticking along quite nicely, even with a reasonable (recovery run) pace. About a mile and a half from home through the twisty woods, felt a bit light headed, lost footing, regained footing, lost footing and fell over. Think the shoulder and ribs took most of it all, but have a fat lip too so must've hit my head.
Came too and hadn't a clue where I was or why I was out. Made it back OK, and guessing mild concussion.
Brain functions mainly restored but ribs very sore - took hours to get comfortable last night. I'll see how they fare this week, I don't really want to go to A&E (hospital). Have to admit, it was a bit scary.
I dobt I'll be running for a few days at least....It may well have been part dehydration, as it was very warm yesterday.
What - nothing
Why - sensible
last rest - the next few days
last hard - the ground
Sounds as though you're running well Hazel. I'm with you on wanting the change of scene.
We had a frost again here this morning Alehouse and whilst it warmed up yesterday afternoon we didn't hit the 20s.
LMH: That's sweet of you. For now I'm ok and still have a few sachets. A friend just told me how to make your own with Weissbier and flour, so if push comes to shove I'll try that.
Frost, LMH/ale! Good grief.
Hazel: Nice running. It's good to be motivated. I'm still waiting for my mojo to come back. The hamstring is ok as long as I shuffle at a very easy pace which is fine with me at the moment.
We had a lovely morning with zero wind and bright sunshine so I bimbled around for 6 miles. Today was one of those mornings where I felt I could have done a Forrest Gump and just carried on forever. Sadly, work stopped play.
What 6 mile run
Why: because
Last hard:world events
Lyrics: Nope
Miles makes smiles.
Progression

WHat: 5 miles done this morning including a 2.6 mile strava challenge thingy
why: it helps with motivation
last hard: that was
last rest: 31/12/16
have a good day all
Eggs delivered once a week with our milk here so no problems so far. Flour is harder but got some from local farm shop.
Struggling at the moment with Lucas/work etc.
Hope you're ok Dustin. Please keep an eye of that head and go to a&e if any signs of serious concussion. They are quite empty at the moment (no bar fights or sports matches going on!). In fact Chris whitty is telling us to go to hospital if they have a serious health condition!!!
I think my next cake will be an apple cake. Maybe streusel.
Have a lovely evening all
