7.5k beside the Hutt River - felt OK. Maybe try 10k tomorrow. The 3P's are looming and I need to get fittish again.
I've taken some photo's they have turned out quite good for a phone/camera but I can't attach them as it says they are too big:mad: I'll try to reduce them and post them but don't hold your breath!!:oQuote:

5 miles just , a loosener for tommorow:)
Nice n easy 10miler through the woods.
I ran today 11 minutes around my neighbourhood. And Thursday 10 minutes. Some Achille pain now. I'll know tomorrow if it was good to run or not. Both the physio and the surgeon that operated me (they both happen to be former top runners) suggested is time to start ...
An unexpected babysitter led to 90 minutes on the bike to go and look at the sea.
Tomorrow will be swimming, and Monday is a pancake-flat 10k on the road.
Is there anything else I need to be doing in preparation for the Anniversary Waltz?
Sounds fine to me. Certainly better than my efforts... I've managed a grand total of about 30 miles in the last two months thanks to illness.Quote:

Managed to find a 5k to run on Tuesday with Mrs Slowcoach and one of our nieces, looking forward to it. It starts from a bar and all finishers get a complimentary beverage.:D
No running for 3 days. In the USA and British Airways decided to "lose" my luggage for 3 days which included my running stuff. Got it last night - glad to get out of those smelly 3-day old clothes!
2 hr 34 out and about round Glossop area. From Hollingworth, broadbottom, through country park between broadbottom and Hatto. To Charlesworth, up the nab and over to Kinder area. Left and across moor to Snake pass. Back down to Old Glossop via Doctors Gate. Cracking day for t. Along back road from Old Glossop, looked at Wrens Nest Mill conversion which burnt down the other day and back home for glass of water and off out again for final 30 mins around Swallows Wood and back down Cow Lane. Cracking day. Would be very hot for running if the wind dropped a little.
See Ajohns, you will miss all this when you finally depart for the USA full time. Why didn't you milk the compo you will be able to claim now BA have lost your lugauge? Its a fair amount each day you are without it. You could have had some very nice new Puma trainers on them!!!!!
No running for two days now due to reasons described elsewhere :(
Two hours easy around Roddlesworth and Darwen Moor. Recovery fom eyeballs out at Rivington!
bugger all for a month now! well except hoping round 12 stage! :confused: just been doing leg strenghing hope to start running again in 2 weeks.. :(
82 miles on the bike over Halton Gill to shake off Pendle from yesterday. Bloody daytrippers - Settle cafes were packed, had to go to Garden Makers and ended up taking a loan out to pay the bill.
shining cliffs fell race today :D
next stop the pub :D
4 hours Friday, race Saturday, 3 hours today!! That's more than I've done for the rest of the year put together!!! :eek:
FANTASTIC!!!!
31/4 hour plod over the hills and bogs yesterday, followed by hour on the MTB a bit faster.
33/4 hours and 4500ft today.
Don't do fast.
I hour run-ragged tennis coaching session. Coach was in a beastly mood. Run, rabbit, run!!;)
Well done Dom.Quote:

Well BA finally delivered my stuff so I went for a 35 min road run. Bloody freezing up here in New Hampshire - forgot my gloves so I now have a mild case of frostbite.
3 days without running and I felt like an old carthorse
Yesterday rode over many of the major passes/hills in the lakes on a 5hr outing.
Unfortunately since then i have been mostly throwing up. Not ideal with London less than 14 days away now.
after running a disastrous fell race yesterday , doing an oxo and going the wrong way i thought stuff it long run
16 miles in the sun , nice views over the hills, lots of rambling ramblers about
45miles last week so this could be a fifty mile week hopefully
Out for two hours or so today. I think I ran over Winter Hill and Great Hill but not sure as I couldn't see a thing because of the mist!:( At least it didn't start raining until just after I had finished.
11/2 hour on MTB from home. 2 days rest now, going camping.
Congratulations to daz h on making the 1000th post on Today's Training! Your prize is in the post! :DQuote:

Rest day yesterday given I ran on what should've been my rest day earlier in the week.
3.5 hours (c10 miles) walking on Hawksworth/Burley/Bingley and Baildon Moors today - left waterproofs at home (that'll teach me to believe the forecast!!) so got rather wet in the steady drizzle - worth it for the beer in the Junction in Baildon afterwards.
10k on the road.
My 10k pb, 1 mile swimming pb and my age are all now exactly the same number of minutes/years.
Is this an Omen?
13 miles from Wormelow to Monmouth via Orcop, Garway and Skenfrith. Lovely lanes that go up and down more often than a whores drawers, no cars, pretty baa lambs and the last of the glorious daffodils. Bliss.
66 mins and 6 seconds?Quote:

Now bracing ourselves for a 3.30am start tomorrow morning, due to arrive in Singapore about 20 hours later :(. Good news is that the hotel has a gym with a running machine, maybe I can get that last minute Ann. Waltz training in after all. :)
