ThorntonRunner 28 Feb 8:05pm, 28 Feb 2024 7,317 posts	0 ThorntonRunner Good news LD - we're currently trying to visit a friend two or three times a week while she recovers from detached retina surgery. The friend is someone who's always active, so she's finding it quite a struggle
Lip Gloss 28 Feb 8:07pm, 28 Feb 2024 74,304 posts	0 Lip Gloss That’s why when any patient phoned trying to see a GP for an eye problem we told them to see an optician instead as they have the tools to look into the eyes.

GimmeMedals 28 Feb 10:18pm, 28 Feb 2024 26,683 posts	0 GimmeMedals Good news on OH's eye, LD. Less good that plans have been suckered, but fun to be with the grandchildren. I ran today but struggled to do even the "easy" pace that was suggested, let alone the faster progressive chunk. Not helped by wind and lack of zing. I need to reorganise my training schedule as I did legs day at the gym yesterday, followed by a 40 minute run. I think it's taken it's toll.
Sombrero 28 Feb 10:46pm, 28 Feb 2024 13,963 posts	0 Sombrero Well done NSC. Good news on OH, LD. I got my 8th 100 mile month ticked off tonight. ✔️ What made it even better is that I did a pyramid session at track (1,2,3,4,3,2,1 mins with run recoveries of half the time after each interval. I went through 5k in 24 mins. Hoping that stands me in good shape for Saturday when I'll be attempting a club standard bronze time of 23.58 or less at parkrun.
