Daft chooks! :)

I went for a run this morning before my massage, although it mizzled for part of it I looked like I'd just got out of the shower when I got in as it was so humid.

It's looking very grey and miserable here in That London. I'm meeting Bint for some hill reps on the way home from work - could be a wet one.

On the subject of backs, there's an excellent book that I always recommend:- Sarah Key's Back Sufferer's Bible. It explains how the back works, gives some case histories and then some excellent exercises which really help. I had mine finally sorted out by a chiroprator who practises micro-manipulation and have never looked back. My personal opinion on support things is that they take over from the muscles so make them lazy so I would rather rest enough and build the muscles up to do the intended job properly than use a quick-fix. Another supporter for yoga/pilates here too.

Picked up a bit of hamstring issues on Monday, had a test run today. OKish, but could still feel it

Tennis ball comes in handy :)

Been off work, back tomorrow and a big presentation. Double brown pants stuff....

I am wimping out of the club run tonight (though I have to go briefly anyway as the Chair is away so I'm 'it'). Having had such a bad night's sleep and another difficult day both physically and emotionally, clearing my mother's house (plus the 2 hour drive each way) I am just going to lie on the floor and do some relaxation stuff. I may fall asleep :-)

That's one hell of a day LD - just going out to do chair duties is an asking a lot.

Off to look at home page for seren

About This Thread

Maintained by Merrymoo
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2017 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed and sometimes even some running is talked about.

Happy running :-)
