MrM2...I guess we all have to concentrate on what we can do now rather than what we did two years ago, painful as that is. We're still in the game, at least, so that's a win.
Harmander, I'd completely forgotten it's my club's Christmas do on Saturday evening so I don't think I'll be up for a race on Sunday, for obvious reasons! If I do go out, I daresay it'll be later than usual.
Dubai, wouldn't August be roasting hot? (I know you're used to that, mind you, but still!)
I did 6 miles today, slow recovery pace, but with some strides (basically short sprints in this instance) in the last mile. Very much enjoyed doing those. Hopefully they'll help improve my stride length and cadence.
YTD: 1182
Vertical 1k MrM2....I'm not that silly
Aber 10 was breezy but great race, I was going to pace someone to sub 1 hr but they bailed out in the morning so I got to pace someone else to 45 mins...that wasn't planned for but managed a 45min:44sec.
Our Friday night group all did fantastic with all of them doing better than they ever thought they could, so a huge confidence boost all round...best bit of the day.
1676 miles YTD
Hobie your Friday night group seems to be extremely positive, great thing to do.
All ready to run outside this morning as the weather forecast was not that bad. Opened the door and realised how well insulated our house is! Skating rink that even Torvill and Dean would have been proud of. So spin class and a prog run on the TM, started at MP and ended at 5km.

Cal the world has gone crackers over Christmas lights up here, they are so uplifting.

TT, glad there's no ice here, I absolutely hate it.
Did take forever to make myself go outside, though, but I got a slow 6 done.

Cal... 'still in the game'...absolutely! and continue to enjoy it as much as ever.
Out in the afternoon 'warmth' ! and thankful that the leg was happy with an undulating 9 miles.
YTD: 993' .
Dubai, I know someone who works in F1, his recent runs on Strava have been around the circuit....awesome streaking by the way...long way ahead now.
Doing a night trail run training session tonight with our Friday group as we have The Night Nobbler race next Saturday...details available but maybe not believable.
1688 miles YTD for me.
DR it is hard to believe it is a year, well done for making it to December.
Hobie sounds interesting.
I am determined to go outside tomorrow, was going to today till the wind increased and the temperature dropped!
Another TM run.........
YTD: 1191.08
Mr MM: its always good to still be in the game. The thousand may well now by done. I always remember the cricket commentator, Brian Johnston, applauding when a player made 99 because for the team 99 was, to all intents and purpose, as good as a 100. Well, I'll do the same for you, 993 is as good as a 1000.
I've had a disappointing running week. Tues I was always working late so that day was a non starter, Wed and Thurs both fell to the weather, my running slot is around 6pm (give or take) and on both days it was raining. Sorry to say it. but after years in the gym with access to a TM, I'm a bit of a fair weather runner!
5 tonight making YTD 1223.5
Busy weekend, park run tomorrow and as Mrs Donnie is visiting her mother I've signed up for the Bolsover 10k on Sunday.
Hobie, there is one night a week when anyone can cycle/run at the Yas Marina circuit. Would be great to do sometime

Four miles done today...a one mile warm-up followed by parkrun (Charlton this time...I am now Lon-done again. Until the next new one starts up, whenever that is). Another crap time but...eh. It is what it is.
YTD: 1200 ✨

Dubai... amazing streaking! and about to pass 1800 miles!
Cal... Well done on getting Lon- done up to date, and reaching 1200 miles!
Got out early this morning in a 'mild' 10 degrees. Enjoyed the first half but the second half was hilly and quite a struggle tbh. However, 9 miles completed...bringing me to;
YTD: 1002' .
Here are the results from our Dawn to Dusk event earlier today.

Fantastic, MrM2!
Harmander good to hear about your event going ahead. Hopefully everyone had a marvelous time?
MrMr2 congratulations 🏃♀️🥳🏃♀️🥳🏃♀️🥳
Did the Mil visit yesterday so after seven hours in the car I was tired! A gentle run, made much easier by being outside (yep actually outside) and no spin class.

Yesterday was interesting....7am start with a group hoping to do 35 mile trail run...First 15 miles was some amazing muddy trails up hills and along rivers, sadly the next 6 miles had to be on road...I didn't have a change of shoes so had to do it in trail shoes, knees took a battering on the steep downhills so I tapped out at 20 miles and phoned a friend for a lift home.
Thought I better look after my knees for the Night Nobbler this weekend.
1715 miles YTD
Hobie, hope your knees recover!
Anyway, I had a restless night so decided to get up around 4am and went for a run at 5. Did 12 miles, all in the dark. Slow of course, but felt fine.
YTD: 1212
Hobie how are the knees?
Out late, didn't really want to go out but as I was out for lunch I did. A run, no targets or aims or strategy!
YTD: 1210.41
Hobie...Hope that your knees are OK for your Night Nobbler! (A 35 mile trail run would be unusual prep for your night run ??)
Cal... Out at 5?? And I thought that my 7:30 start was adventurous!
Another 7 miles today, but very poor cadence at the end. (Perhaps I need a tread mill..?!)
YTD: 1009' .
