Morning!

Lyrics: Napoleon did surrender
Oh, yeah
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way

Yesterday's were Brotherhood of Man, Save your kisses for me. A Eurovision winner. Similar theme today.

What: about half an hour easy plus must get round to stretches

Why: hopefully longer tomorrow plus I keep forgetting
Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

    Morning
    Get the theme know the lyrics
    What a fiasco that was last night. I don't watch usually but for some reason I chose to, what a waste of a Saturday night!! Nil points really??
    Alehouse enjoy your run
    What might try walk run
    Why blow cobwebs away
    Last hard week or so
    Last rest yesterday
    Have a good Sunday  all

    Morning again!

    Hope you get to run/walk, Wabo.

    Today's run brought up just over 32k for the week, so heading in the right direction, but it's not easy! Dry, cool, very windy.

    Stretches later.

    Oh no alehouse that's very sad. So sorry to hear that. 
    I did manage a nice forest walk then oh took my coat as I fancied a run back to car. Only half a mile and I was a bit puffy but definitely on the mend today. 
    I'm sad about Ron hill. Bless him what an amazing man

    Hiya
    Ale - I did hear about Ron and thought of you. Very sad news thoughts with his friends and family.
    Wabo - pleased to hear you're feeling a little better

    What - 14 trail miles, it was pretty miserable out there, wet and muddy in places.
    why - longer run
    last rest - 10/10
    last hard - that was tbh. Legs a little jaded.
    lyric - of course



  • Now down in Cardrona with daughter and Ellie.
    Good week in Durness for not the CWC.
    Els and I participated in some of the informal runs, climbed Ben Hope and did some other walking. One of the couple's that had met there had a pre wedding blessing on Friday followed by a mini reception. There was also a cross dressed wedding run on the beach.

    Sad to hear about Ron who I had met with Alehouse on Ron's 80th birthday celebration 5k.

    Lyrics no

    A few photos from last week

    Evening..

    Didn't get round to posting yesterday.

    Sad news regarding Ron Hill. Great pic of the 3 of you Ale.

    Good to hear you have managed a run Wabo.

    Don't envy you the trails today then Dustin.

    Great pics OH, must have been a lovely trip and with some decent weather too.

    Hope you have recovered from the drive yesterday emzap.

    What: long run with 19k @ something around mara effort
    Why: punishment for not doing my speedwork on Thursday. Did a warm up, the heavens opened further and I walked the 400m home..
    Last hard: mental toughness
    Last rest: 30.03.2020

    Lyrics: yes

    Wabo, I am quite happy to miss out on the champions League; most Leicester fans would put the FA cup first. Top three next year though!

    Speed work needs the right weather, Hazel! Sounds decent today!
