Stop the machine, I wanna get out.
Tippy / Eagle - I have to say, I would be tempted to be a riverside pusher as well - even at this time of year.
Enjoy your street run this evening. How far?
Bodj - how is Mini doing?
Are Eagle and Tippy still out on the streets.......??! Eagles, did you go nuclear, or were you able to talk still??
Limper, she is fine, 8 weeks to go and huge
I think she did her race just in time!
Ah, night in tonight as no meals on wheels to sort! Luxury
Speedy....is your lap top repaired yet???
All is week we stopped a melt down.
(Gingan ghoulie ghoulie)
Bojit well done to mini.
Speedy, (.. - -... , .... -) or if the PC is up and running hello.
Limper we did a nice run by the river again, 10 miles for me and no doubt RE added at his end.
My exercise yesterday (apart from some gymnastics while I was decorating) was a 4 mile walk. It was brisk though and involved a lot of ball throwing and resistance work as I waded through the surf. Don't think it equates to a 10 mile run somehow!
Bodj - hope there were no more surprises in the woodpile?! If it had been Mini that got the shock who knows what might have ensued!!
Morning Eagle.
Speedy??
<< goolie goolie goolie gotcha - gin gan goo gin gan goo >>
Morning all. Stuck here at work
, I'd much rather be out on a jog with you good folk.
Those mossie bites from the river run last night don't half itch. Little b*ggers.
Despite attempts from Tiptoes to provoke an explosion I am pleased to report that I refused to rise to the bait. He is a naughty Tippy.
The mozzies are EVIL this year aren't they Eagle. If I stand still for a few minutes I am covered in the little gits. Tea tree oil dabbed on (undiluted) is the best thing I have found for the itching.
I may take Dawg for a weeny runnette shortly. Nothing fast due to the heat (yes folks - it's actually HOT down here).
I would go later when it's cooled down a bit, but I'm sure I've got something very important to do this evening... like slobbing on the sofa with some (un)healthy dinner.
Limper what can I say, hope the jogette went well.
Dawg enjoyed herself and I did my best.
Well done on your efforts boys. What a fit and committed pair you are!
Eagle - you could get your trusty coach (Tipster) to suck the oogey stuff out of your mozzie bites. I'm sure that's the recommended way of dealing with them.
In the hope that he concedes... Tippy Tippy, look where I've been bitten...
Thursday night is run to the gym for body pump class then run home.
Have a good day everyone.
Now, I always thought vets did that sort of thing
<has another peek at Limpers bumps
>
Well done on the jogette Limper.
Wheres, Bojit & Speedy these days, are they hiding from RE ??
So I can get back to chatting with you all. Still on phone just now as at daughters Jayden sitting.
Awaiting immenient arrival of great grandchild who is now 6 days overdue.
Hubby got into London marathon so now it is very tempting. Going to caravan at weekend so I am going to see just what the knees can take and get this weight loss sorted once and for all.
Back later as I have to go build a tower with bricks says Jayden.
Speedy: nice to have you back.
Dawg and I did our beach run again. Only a couple of miles or thereabouts, but betterer than nuffink.
I lost about a pint of blood to the mozzies when stopped off at my stables... Tippy, pleeeeeeeese can you do something about my bumps?!
Limper Ok
(dones gloves) (now stay very still)
(opens witch hazel)
Wil be 14th time for both of us if we do London Limper. My first marathon was London way back in 1989 so I would like my last to be London so it's a challenge. Next year is our silver wedding year so I have a lot planned. It's hubby's 60th as well so it's a special year all round. I guess we are lucky with entries.
Going to try Plodding at weekend. Watch this space.
What have you all planned for the weekend? Anyone racing?
<< lays back on sofa and awaits relief >> From the mozzie bites of course. Tut tut, people's minds!
Good luck with your plod Speedy.
Having a glass of wine or two as it's our 24th wedding anniversary. Can't believe that 24 years ago we went to Berlin for honeymoon where hubby ran the marathon and I decided to start running.
Morning all. What a glorious English autumn morning it is too.
I've just been out for a run along the Kennet towpath. Ducks, swans, herons, fishermen, dog walkers, fellow runners all out & about happy to be alive. Mist rising from the water, the sun coming up but not yet too hot. 10 FAB miles.
Not like the other evening when an *hole tried to run me down in his 'motor'. Tosser.
Down at caravan till tomorrow. Came yesterday.
Plod was not good and really wasn't a plod. Knees kept making a cracking sound and kinda hurt. I had to walk most of it and just put in a few plodding steps. Going out tomorrow again. Said I would try this weekend to see how I felt so weekend ain't over yet.
What have you all been doing?
Just been out in the rain for a plod. Managed a paltry mile but felt good. Walked and plodded it but the knees were fine. I actually plodded more than I thought I could.
So plodding has started now to tackle the weight.
Have you all got sunshine today? Send it up here please. One weekend we will come to the caravan and it won't rain - fat chance of that. I am sure the clouds hold their rain till they hit The Ettrick Valley and then dump it.
Just been sunning myself in garden after a gentle 10k this morning at which, Mrs Eagle was chasing after a fox for some unknown reason, strange behaviour.
RE's oldest eaglet came 3rd I believe and he looked good when he went past me.
Now going to scare the neighbours a bit more.
What exactly was Mother Eagle doing Tippy? Am I missing something here?!
Speedy - I am one huge mozzie bite now. I am having to take paracetamol to keep my temperature down because the bites are making me feel ill and sweaty and the hotter I am the worse the bites hurt, so it's a vicious circle. They are the worst I have ever had (and I've had some pretty evil ones in the past).
Sorry you are not having the lovely weather us southerners have got.
Well done for plodding.
You a granny again yet Bodj?
Morning All.
Another lovely day down South (Ducks Speedy's left jab)
Long days again this week - 8 till 6.30 meaning out door at 7am and home at 7.30 pm.
Can't believe it's October already.
