sounds wonderful OH, pity it would be so far for me to go, but all sounds great!

morning all,
Ale - hope your daughter enjoys it, I'm sure it will be a lovely experience.
LmH, postie - ah the south coastal hills, have to say enjoy running those when I get the chance.
NZC - mine was 10 miles
Took yesterday as a rest day, sore hammys, busy day at work and committee meeting in the evening that finished at 10 conspired to tell me what I ought to know.
Today - ran to work from the station, hardly a postie commute, merely a 2k leg stretcher. Will do some kind of speedwork lunchtime as can't get to the club tonight: both girls have schools athletics fixtures.
Why - back in the saddle
last rest - yesterday
last hard - Sunday

lyric - nope

morning all,
Birks - hope eldest gets on OK!
RFJ, OH - nice racing , well done!
Did someone mention cake? There is a whole keylime pie sitting uneaten in our fridge, plus half a mississippi mud pie. What diet?
what - maybe 4 easy, maybe rest
why - sore hammys
last rest - 3 weeks ago
last hard - yesterday
Good news from yesterday was that youngest was 4th overall in the 4km ladies race (out of 233), first in age group in 18.02, my time officially 70.36.
lyric - no idea

afternoon everyone...
LmH what is this wet stuff of whch you speak?  Despite forecasts for rain, it has been a lovely weekend here so far..yesterday sun run followed by a day of gardening, today did the local 10miler, more as tempo than anything else. If anything a bit too hot, but nice enough to stretch out on teh grass afterwards and raid the bbq...
Set off perhaps a wee bit too quick (first two sub 7s) but slowed a little, but averaged about 7.03 for the last 3. I think it was 70.42 overall. Not too bad, but equally nothing to write home about. Job done, box ticked I think is the way to describe it!!
last rest - 22 days although tomorrow is a contender..
last hard - miles 4 5 and 6 this morning

enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Morning all,
Like Blisters we have the yellow thing, lovely morning out there, just back in from 9 very easy: fields, canal, woods and a lovely array of animals: lambs, swans and cygnets by the canal - gave them a wide berth...couple of deer and rewarded with the sounds and, with patience, sight of a woodpecker. The cuckoo remained disguised.
Why - ease back day, have a 10 mile race tomorrow, but treating it as a tempo/training run. Marathon 6 weeks today.
Last Rest - 3 weeks
Last hard - last week sometime.

LmH - enjoy the weekend away
Ale - good luck with the training, hope its not as bad as it sounds
Paddy - sounds a decent days training, hope you don't have to wait too long for Blisters to catch you up
