Evening All!! :hello:

Were you able to run tonight Becky?

I had a 4 mile fartlek run scheduled today but my legs felt a little tired so it was less speed and more play for me. I'm loving this sunny weather but it was hot, hot, hot this evening.

So........ 4 miles 00:38:40 (09:37/mile)

Hmmm, it's been quiet on here for a few hours; does that mean you are all out running????

Some good running going on as usual :j And some good plans for events too!

I did a 6.8m run at lunchtime today in 1:07:55 (avg. pace 9:58/mile). Not too bad. Didn't feel anywhere near as bad as Sunday in the legs, though I messed my pace up a bit in the middle. Was a wee bit hot though!

Total for the week = 6.8m

I plan to go out again tomorrow and possibly Thursday this week. My cumulative daily running felt quite good a couple of weeks back so trying that again this week all being well.

No Simply - had some complications appear out of nowhere today so have to wait till I can get to the docs tomorrow just to check (wow I am sensible sometimes )

Well done on the run on tired legs though - but dont forget if you need to take a day off ever - do it and dont feel guilty

Hope things are fully better soon Becky!

Nice to see more miles in the bank, Krider and Simply!!:D

I like the mean street one to... maybe coz its a lot cheaper.... now go and get Rich to play and we got a team :T:T:T:T

I don't get it!!!!

So 3 people as a team pay £105 to do a treasure hunt in the middle of London that anybody with a spare hour and access to Google could knock up?

I think organising one could be fun if there's that much money in it!!;)

Hope everything is ok and that you get sorted tomorrow - you must be climbing the walls. Good for you on the sensible front though

My legs weren't tired enough that I needed to rest today - I think they just took a while to warm up as I was fine once I got into it. I've got another rest day tomorrow so will make the most of that - I've got my first 14 miler scheduled for Sunday :eek:

anyway... after the glory of my 1/2 came the shocking performace in the 200m 800m Long Jump shot put and javelin.... they will be no oylimpic track and field medel in this house :rotfl:.

Hey all, went out for a small 4 miler tonight, body hadn't quite recovered from Sats long run but I got over halfway round and did better than after the half. Looks like my body is recovering quicker

I used to love running on the treadmill, but find it so dull now, I keep looking at the clock willing it to hurry up, whereas outside I just enjoy the scenery and the sun

That Blackpool run looks interesting, maybe I can pursuade the wife to a weekend away the pleasure beach might tempt her!
Or will it be too much before the VLM 2 weeks later??

I was thinking the same raphael; a nice spring weekend away in Blackpool. Sounds like the ideal break to me - just need to convince my OH now!! Fish & Chips anyone??
