Lots of great running to read about by you lot!
Belated happy birthday wishes to the five year old Lesley, he'll be doing park runs before you know it! Glad that the pain in the rear didn't spoil your club run.
Two good runs there MrM2 and that's a pretty nifty park run time.
Never been to Australia JackFW stone pics are nice to see. Yeah, trails are the best without a doubt.
Tut to rain and rain again hs/gg. Fingers crossed we're having a mini heat wave for a couple of days now. Good chatty 6.9 hs in some unknown territory. Six miles was good to gg ... regardless of the "should have done more"!!
Only 1.6 miles this morning but with some much harder effort thrown in which I haven't been used to for about three years! Hope to do this every week, maybe twice and see what happens!

Lovely sunny morning today for a change, even put my short tights on 😁.

7 miles around the local park, a bit boring going around 7 times but it’s flat and I wanted to get a MP effort in.

YTD 781 miles.

Great running everyone. This morning was 5 x 800 metres on the forest track with 90 seconds recoveries, with the Wednesday Group.

Hopefully the changed meds work Steve, you’re definitely showing great resilience & stubbornness not to give in.

Decided on a rest day today we were moving boat back to godmanchester which was a good 3-3.5hr just arrived and we’ll head out for a walk shortly. Nice to now be still in the sunshine.

Ellie doing a great job of ensuring we are going the right way.

Way to go Ellie! Yeah, stubbornness it must be gg, if things don't change by the end of the year then I'll have a rethink on annual distance target.
7 miles in sunshine sounds good MrHSc. So... what are short tights?!! Tights/tracksuits ditched here in early April for straightforward shorts.
Back to your normal good distances FF, I'm envious.
5x800 metres with just 90 second recovery sounds very hard hs so well done on that.
4.1 miles this morning, quite summery and nicely dry although it makes no difference to what I'm doing. It was hard work this morning maybe because I was awake from 3am onwards.

GG, I hope that you enjoyed your walk yesterday in the sunshine 🌞 I imagine that Ellie is a good navigator 😃

Steve, I happened to click on the hr thread, and think you said that you would be continuing with your medication, but I'm not sure, as I didn't read it all "sorry."

Thanks re the 800 metre reps. There were just the four of us, and it was a good session. It was only the third time this year that we have done it, as it has been so wet and muddy.

Well done for this mornings 4.1 miles, especially with your lack of sleep. I'm not surprised that it was hard work.

This morning was an easy pace recovery road run of 7k (4.35 miles). It was very humid, so quite uncomfortable 😳

It’s definitely warmed up here and it’s fab Ellie is currently cooling off padding in the lake we are walking to the pub for tea.

I did a slow half marathon today but I was practicing fuelling so walking while I ate food. It was so hot I even drank all my active root and another bottle of water most unlike me.

Finished the virtual challenge too

Targets are just something to help motivate us Steve getting out and managing to do some running is still brilliant against all the health things working against you. Be proud of your tenacity.

I am only -1.8% down on the 1000 mile target which I am pleased with as I had to have the first 5 weeks of the year off from running with a I strained my knee.

I got a couple of parkrun tourism in the last few weeks; last week I did Reading parkrun in 22:23, and the week before Ashton Court parkrun (Bristol) in 23:39 which has a killer hill half way and down hill the final half. Getting annoying close to going 22:00 recently but not quite doing it.

Anyway, I got to kinda put some training in for Oxford Half as I voluntereed last year so got a free place this year. I don't really enjoy long runs to I sort of struggling with motivating myself at the moment. Maybe I will just do it and not worry.
