Morning!
Late start!
Lyrics: Well, if friends with their fancy persuasion
Don't admit that it's part of a scheme…
Lyrics are not part of a theme.
What: perhaps a walk plus short stretching session
Why: current problem stopping me doing much. Has been going on too long.
Yesterday's lyrics were Love Child, Diana Ross and The Supremes
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

theme or not I seem to be switched on to your lyrics alehouse....
alehouse hope all is good today
Hazel Hope your 5 miles was good
Well I am ok, but does anyone else get this? I want to do 6.8 miles today so I map out a course and I stand around indoors picturing it and I just don't feel able to. SO I decided I will just run round my home loop (about 1.5 miles no road crossing) 4 times or something. So I set off and on the second loop I finally feel like I can run up that road, over this road, across here etc etc and so I managed 5.8. Got a mile to do. I have no idea what made me feel like that but I guess it is all part of being home alone again and nobody to run with. I need to get out with others!!
What: 5.8 so far
why: run the sum
last hard: that really was
last rest: 31/12
I don't feel too bad now but it just still looms over me all the time at the moment
Good running Hazel! And walking Chick!
Wabo - know the feeling, I could only motivate myself to do a minimal run yesterday, legs really weary. Definitely easier in company.
Today was only 5.6 miles but boy what a tough wind, we did a loop which meant it was on our backs as much as possible but still a fight! That'll have to do.
Look on the positive side, Wabo! You have done quite a lot lately: if I am correct the past seven days of run the minimum sum is 56k, which you should be delighted with!
So today will complete one year of running every day, Hazel! Well done!
5.6 miles sounds plenty, Els, after your long run!
Windy here, but probably no of Els's proportions.
What: a short walk and then a very slow 1k run, with one brief stop
Why: testing the waters and the stop was because I have forgotten how to tie laces. Whilst slow, my legs were like jelly, which is perhaps not a surprise after 54 days off. And generally didn't feel quite right so will almost certainly be leaving it a few days before any more running.
Re lyrics, recently we have had two "themes", rain and love! What do people think about themes?
Ale - sounds positive, I think I had your legs today (see below). Themes are good, gives me a fighting chance of getting the words!
Hazel - good work on the 1y
Wabo - sounds good. I have "options" on my routes - go that way it's 2 miles, go this way it's 3...sometimes I force myself into the longer one. I have to admit I tend to put them in earlier, by late in the run it's "go home, direct route"
Chick - sounds a good walk
Els - nice miles!
What - lunchtime run at the common
why - recovery, loop recce for training session
last rest - 10/10
last hard - I should say yesterday's 16, but today's 5 felt tough going even if I was plodding.
It's quite an up and down route but even so...
lyric - not sure I do
Chick nice walking, glad it's not just me with the routes
I did the sum, popped another mile in later
