Morning.
Lyrics - Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
Hope you slept better and feel ok today emzap but if you need more time off you do - it sounds as though your GP would have no difficulty signing you off.
Sorry to hear you had another fall RFJ -- glad it was a soft landing.
How are you today Wabo? Hope you're continuing to fight off whatever is trying to ail you.
Another bad night's sleep here and have had to drag myself out of bed this morning. Still windy though not as bad as yesterday (OH ad Els would laugh at me describing it as windy I'm sure). No running yesterday so I'm hoping to get a few easy miles in this morning as my legs usually feel awful after a day off. I'm not going to be able to run Wednesday or Thursday and Friday is doubtful so no chasing miles or anything this week. Hopefully even though it's going to be a stressful week I'll feel better going in to next week.
What: hopefully a few easy miles
Why: legs and head need it
Last hard: not worrying about the things I can't change
Last rest: 16/6
Yesterday's lyrics - Keep Your Head Up - Ben Howard.
If you think you can or you think you can't you're probably right.

Lmh not too bad, but tired! Hope you get a few miles in. Great lyrics but I don't recognise them lol
Hazel nice seeing you all virtually ha ha
Emzap hope you got plenty sleep
Rfj sorry to hear you had a fall but thankfully soft grass
I did get out yesterday late afternoon with my mate, only 2.6 miles and I cycled the short way to her and back. We exchanged my herbs for her beetroot!
What a run to feel
Why see what I manage
Last hard yesterday
Last rest 31/12/16
Have a good day all
LMH - hope you get some pleasant miles in today, I am also intrigued by cider cake from Saturday! (Obviously...)
OH - good work with the decorating but sorry to hear the stones are still causing trouble
Chamolk - nice to see you, best endeavours at the moment I guess, you'll soon be back
RFJ - take care and glad no effects from the tumble
Chick - not really surprising about Hamburg seems the way of most of it at the moment. Not even sure we'll get a full XC season now
Hazel - skills with the LSR
Emz - sorry the party kept you up, at least they told you! I do feel for the youngsters.
What - easy run
Why - harder couple of days, so keeping it sensible
Last rest - 20/06
last hard - weekend:
Saturday opted against the track and stayed local. 3km steady with #2 daughter then headed over to rugby/cricket pitch a couple of miles away. There is an approx 400m loop around the edge so did 400 fast/400 steady/300 fast/300 steady/200 fast / 200 steady/100 fast / 100 steady x2 with 400 easy between each. Had intended to do 3 reps but legs weren't having it. 8 miles all told.
Sunday - easy long run over the fields , about 2 hours around 13.5 miles I reckon. Garmin has been dead since Friday (more shopping!)
On the plus side, pubs have reopened!
Walk with Mrs D on Saturday followed by a quick pint (sat outside, table service, people at least 3m apart)
Saturday evening had a table booked at another pub, every other table empty, again table service, and everyone all very distant. Sunday lunchtime sat in the beer garden, again table service and everyone at least 3m apart (every other table removed or unavailable). All seemed very controlled, the difference I guess between local village pubs and the mass gatherings seen elsewhere.
Lyrics: no
Sounds like a good weekend, Dustin!
Take care, RFJ!
Thanks for the reminder about not worrying about what one can't control, LMH! Like the weather this morning! Another wet and windy day.
What: short run, stretches
Why: easy running day...but not until the weather eases I imagine.
Wabo: Spurs???
Sounds as though you did your best to support your local pubs Dustin! Cider cake: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/charlecote-park/recipes/fruity-cider-cake
What: 30 minutes easy running
Why: easy day. And I didn't get wet. Rather grey and windy, but not as windy as yesterday. Hopefully an hour tomorrow.
LMH: I had an email from Biobank saying not required for the Coronavirus research.
hazel have a lovely recovery, I will enjoy - I love beetroot.
Hazel - worrying about your boss, I hope he is ok
Spotted first chillis growing - excited!
I am just back from 3 miles, I really thought the heavens would open, luckily not
Dustin I recently had an an old garmin fall apart ( very old) I contacted them just onthe off chance it can be repaired and they said no it is too old a odel but if I send it back they would give 30% (I think) off a brand new one bought via their website. Priced it all up and it worked out better than getting anywhere else. Just in case? It is called a trade up.
I didn't quite stay dry Hazel but the wind was sufficient that I dried out each time I got wet.
I had the same Biobank email Alehouse.
Glad you stayed dry Wabo. Good deal with the Garmin - what did you go for?
RFJ sorry times are tough
Hazel...hope your boss is ok.
Doing a little challenge of my own...missed virtual tiree ultra as wasn't really well enough at the time and had been booked to do real ultra in Sept which is understandably cancelled. So doing my own walking 35m over 5 days or so. Trying to keep to beaches/coastal paths but not always poss cos of logistics. Anyhow the miles are mounting up though today was a v it suburban as too windy to go with plan A.
Enjoy rest of evening. Book and scrabble for me!
Lyrics no
Oh nice miles
Els great challenge and I love the photos
