Morning!
Lyrics: There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
And the bells in the steeple too
Goodbye 2020, or is that good riddance. I hope everyone has a great 2021.
What: probably short and easy
Why: ice
Hopefully a little more sleep now.
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Lyrics no
Yesterday's lyrics were Sexy Boy, by Air
Ale: Good Riddance I think and be careful out there!
Treadmill and static bike for me again.I could not get to surgery for jab yesterday just end of my road and that was deadly.But have later appointment today so Alun can take me.
Miles makes smiles.
Progression
It all looks better under a light dusting of snow though chamolk - we had similar again overnight so I may be confined to the house.
A nice way to spend a rare child free day off with your OH emzap.
Yaktrax Poppy?
Hope you managed some more sleep alehouse.
I spent the night in a chair much to Lola's delight. Not sure I slept much better but back/hips/knees were more comfortable. New sling should arrive today which I'm hoping will be a bit more comfortable especially when moving - not that I can go far anyway!
Managed a little more sleep and during that time we had a fair amount of snow which is now of course on top of icy surfaces. Run may be rather delayed and when I do run it will probably be short on the fields and trails.
Hope the new sling helps, LMH!
And I can't find my yaktrax!
What: walk to a different playground
Have a lovely day all
Not sure what it's like out there yet....being lazy but going for run with friend shortly.
Hope sling arrives and is useful LMH
No more falls folks!
LMH: Don't know what to say - that's just awful news. Poor you
I hear ya regarding your husband making a poor nurse. I had similar issues when my foot was done and I guess it's going to be the same again soon.
Wabo: great to see you out running again
Sorry to hear that snow and ice are stopping play for most of you. Be careful out there. Yaktrax are a godsend
Just dull, grey and wet here but no snow. Luckily.
Managed 5 miles early doors to stock up on champagne as we'd run out. It was still dark and the moon was out for a bit before the next bank of clouds moved in.
Nice early miles chicksta. You think your op is going to go ahead then? Hope so.
I felt really rough earlier - would have blamed the codeine but I’m only taking one when I try to go to sleep so I don’t think it can be that. I could really do without anything else/feeling worse!
Guess it could be the codeine LMH but doesn't sound that you've been having much!
Sorry to hear you're feeling bad omg.
Sounds like a nice runs els.
What: 20 minutes on ice and snow
Why: found my yaktrax!
Can you send the champagne this way please, Chick!
I'm not surprised that you feel rough, LMH: delayed shock, lack of sleep etc. You probably need the champagne, or red wine!
Yearly totals later.
Ice all gone but wind picking up.
Lyrics yes (perhaps to be heard tonight?)
Moon last night
And well done on getting to 2020, OH!
Oh dear emzap, does Lucas usually object to hat and gloves?
Well done OH.
alehouse - I think you've done well considering the issues.
Other than parkruns pre Covid and latterly the start of the cross-country, no races run this year.
One real event....Falkirk ultra in Feb....couldn't really call it a race more an exercise in mud running. Couple of virtual events.
I have now been told I am not allowed to go into work as Clinically Extremely Vulnerable, till we are out of Tier 4 that we went into at midnight, so some what pi**ed off and my MH is taking a battering today...
New targets set for next year, a bit of a challenge, so will see how it works out)
Biking - 3750 miles (72.1m a week) mainly exercise bike but do want to get out more on the Hybrid (non battery)
Walking - 325 Miles (In effect 2 x 5k walks with the poles a week)
Hoping and praying for a better 2021 for you all and myself
God Bless, Matt XX (((())))
Sorry to hear about work RFJ - can you use the time to make a good start on your targets (I'm guessing you can't work from home)?
I'm sorry alehouse I was speaking from a personal rather than CV19 perspective. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
Els - sling arrived this afternoon and is much more comfortable, thank you. My friend is a nurse in ortho OPD and was a bit put out when I told her I'd ordered it, she said they never use them but I figured if I made it feel comfortable hanging (as it did in the collar and cuff) it must still be correctly aligned.
Big covid outbreak in Shetland in last week....over 60 new cases population total just over 22000..
No big plans for 2021 as who knows....currently doing virtual twelve days of Christmas run 1 mile on first day..2 on second etc except have been doing a bit more first 5 days....the last 4 days will be hard especially if wintry weather. But no pressure really.
Still got leftover entries for Tiree ultra next sept if it happens/both of us fit enough.
