Got to love a bit of fetch motivation Loo, enjoy the bike but be safe!
Glad you have such great people to run with hs and well done on your solo 5 today and your 4.3 steve.
I went out for a little ploddet at lunchtime, I did a 2m loop that is fairly flat, walked the couple of slight inclines and just took it steady. My chest definitely knows I'm not well but it wasnt too bad and my legs could have kept going, so both good signs. Fingers crossed its on the way out.

Hey, track now LL! And bike!! This post marathon period is going well.
Indeed it does appear that you're getting fitter hs; so you had rain on the five miler for a while and then lucky for a bit of sunshine. I know that a group interval session can't really be individualized but it does handicap those who's HR takes longer to level off.
Sorry, I missed your post gg. So glad that you're feeling a bit better at last. It can be irksome to be told " there's a lot of it about"!

Hope you enjoyed the bike LL. Visibility is always a must - lights on at all times is what my OH half does, and it does help when your driving to see them, especially the rear light. track sessions sound good, would be nice to have access to one.
Glad you are a bit better GG, do take it easy these bugs a pesky and seem to like hanging around.
Some good miles going in Steve and HS. I could never get my HR that low!
I did a hilly session on Tuesday night, it was coming down dark but managed most without the head torch. Was drizzly though so rather annoying. Did see a couple of deer and could hear some owls.
Another early run this morning, drizzle was on and off. Head torches in the woods for an explore of some new MTB trails - why not since they are quiet. But they are definitely MTB downhill trails - not really the best for running on as they are quite technical and have a steep camber on the bends. Just something different for us.
Long run planned for Saturday - its forecast for heavy rain and high winds  never mind.

Glad you’re on tbd mend GG.
God luck with that long run.
Very windy in the bike here did just over 12 to reach a checkpoint.
It’s so windy on the bike. I have flashing lights front and rear. Also wear a yellow hi Viv top. Luckily the roads I pick aren’t so busy.

What a treat to see owls and deer Lesley. Compensates for the drizzly weather without a doubt. Good attitude towards the potential wet Saturday long run, hope it goes well.
Good biking LL, riding a bike against the wind is tough but good cardo workout.
Amazingly perfect conditions here this morning, 11c, no wind, no rain! Did five miles, some of it along a river trail. Having company (my wife!) made the run bits less of a struggle. More rain for us expected though so mustn't get too used to "nice" weather!!

Your run sounds perfect Lesley I love a dark run seeing and hearing wildlife.
Well done on the 12m bike ride Loo
Forth ultra will be great Dave - good luck!
Great achievement FF I’ve been around here 16yrs and think I’m only around 10k 😬 must get my act together.
Well done on your runs too Steve and hs
I got out for 4m today, first half mile was walking and chatting with my neighbour and finished with a 2m walk with my friend. Nice to be out but look forward to this bug leaving my body.
