Just A Little Bit Further 2013

ecky - well done on your run. Don't think I could run 10 min miles and still be able to speak!

To be honest I feel a bit exhausted so maybe just as well I didn't go for a run. 

loula that is exciting which ultra is it?

Afternoon all

Ecky well done on yourt miles today and a wise decision not to do the race.

Louise..great news tht you can do a run again.take it easy.

AF..great that your run was ache free...

Chilli..well done on your run of 1.5hrs too.

Jude..great running from you too..hope yourb work wasn't too bad yesterday.

Hiya MC..hows your knee.

RR..may be best to concentrate on your steady paced runs rather than speedy work...that seems to be the achilles heel of alot of us.

Loula...sis..fabby news on being a pacer  and well done on your 7 miles off road.

After taking Chico his walk I went out for a mixed run half road/canal and trail...very very muddy 9 miles..weather was very mild and sunny..not January weather at all..its almost summer like  ooo and i have small blister forming on the inner side of my foot from my trail shoozies...ouchy ouchy

Roast beef in oven for dinner later......cannae wait ..am hungreeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Have a good afternoon all

DEEJAY ..I echo ecky's words..you are in my thoughts too xxx

loula - that sounds like fun, I bet having you to help him get through those last few miles will be a life saver - must be really tough at that stage to keep going

franny - well done on your run but be careful with your blister!

oh, I did parkrun yesterday 34:12, ran all the way, no walking, knee didn't feel great, but seems ok today (mind you haven't done much today)

Yep, I'm going to stick with steady running - this knee of mine has always been strange, so running has probably set something fairly permanent off that means my speed will always be somewhat restricted.  I'll give it a few days or a week's rest and then see how it is - with any luck it'll be OK then I can get back to the slow, steady and increasing distance runs.

I thought it would be my CV system that would have the problem with hill running, not my knee but there you go.

lots of triathlons

well, I am also entered in Sussex marathon in April, but unsure as to whether I am going to manage that I'll have to see how it goes, I can always swap to the half marathon (that's what I did last year) but would really like to do the full mara, but don't want to spend any more time out injured.

triathlons - I have entered the midlands sprint series (3 triathlons, April, May, and July), Outlaw half, and I am doing the outlaw as part of a pirate relay team - I'm doing the run. I need to check whether I have entered anything else - don't want to forget about anything

Evening everyone

Sounds like some good running taking place

AF we will certainly be celebrating with you. Ecky - well done!

Loula, sounds a great idea!

Louise, mmmm carrot cake. I have a tray of freshly made double choc brownies to add to the trolley.

Rest day for me today (at least from training!)

DJ - thoughts and prayers are with you.

morning
