Tek,

Definately have done.

-----------

Well done on everyone's training.  Didn't manage to get out today as it's been really wet & windy.

Teknik that sounds like a great midweek morning running club all the best with the charity work

SC Might jump in a cold bath later I have a little niggle in my right calf and the cold bath will help. Kettle now on the boil.

NN well done on the LT run and miles, I know what you mean about the rain but no macho me here 

Forgot 4 miles recovery in the wind and rain. 14 tomorrow hope that wind drops.

Not a good forecast here for tomorrow.

And heres the boy who's  been getting all the exercise.  He is 4 today!

Blimey I wouldn't want to feed him for a month..he looks huge

he is gorgeous Kaz 

He is rather big! His name is Joop(kidz named him after aftershave). A very happy boy, and very much likes running around on walks but we have to be careful because people are rather intimidated by him!! He would never hurt anyone thou, and is just a big softy. Very much like Scooby Doo in mannerisms

Flying visit- only just got back in! Happy Birthday, Joop!

Had to juggle my schedule a bit- cos didn't get home from work until 7pm and tbh my legs are still feeling the effects of the enforced race on Sunday! so 5.xx and 6.5m recovery runs today- no chance of doing tempo run- but figure i did that -effort wise at least- on Sunday.

Eat and bed now- catch up tomorrow- good running all

Love the dog kaz!  He must be so happy with all the walks he's getting.

Well I think the 50mph winds have hit here, never run into such wind and the rain felt like it was taking my skin off - really sore!

Nice double NP, I see the wind got up for your recovery run! A good recovery double jason, not surprised the legs are feeling Sunday's race, that was a tough one!!

Good luck on the charity effort Teknik, that's a big number running for it.

NN fantastic pace on the LT run.

Pretty strong wind and rain here HM4, hope it calms down for you tomorrow.

Did 7.4m tonight with first half into the strongest wind I've ever run into and the rain . We binned the pyramid session on the way out as just impossible, getting blown about all over the place. Flying on the way back tho'!

Well done on the gym work MG1. I tried to get my weights done after the run but weights room was full, will try again early at the weekend.

AGF lol

MG well done in the gym and on the treddie

Fiona well done in the wind - tough stuff

Stewart well done on the 5m in a gale

Breakthrough run here this morning - 4m at 70%max, got below 9mm at that HR for the first time this campaign. Feeling good!  MP run tonight...

50kts gusting over 60kts here
(just as well I'm grounded)
Well done to all those battling the wind StewartC FionaC
Tek - sounding good and on track

Hi Everyone. A couple of days of non running is over and I jogged with the dog this morning. So I am back on it. Legs feel rested but I am tired after two days or drinking late into the night !!.....I am not as young as i used to be  Good fun though!

Well done on the breakthrough Tek. 

Be careful in the gusty wind folks !!

Well done Stewart, last night was tough!

Teknik nice breakthrough on the HR.

OH must be pretty wild with you, gusts of 129mph recorded not so far away from here!

AGF I'm sure the rest will have done you good.

NP same here, wind seems worse than last night (although not as bad as through the night) but hope it calms down for later. Well done on the 14.  Meant to be a longer one for me tonight but will see how far I manage in this weather, might just run at an easy pace.
