LazyDaisy 13 Jun 10:15am, 13 Jun 2024 40,245 posts	0 LazyDaisy Morning all! Fab running Som 👏👏👏 Hmm. Yesterday at son2's I cleared the bindweed from around a rose growing by some steps. I missed my footing at one point and almost faceplanted (I was impressed with myself that I stayed upright!) but it seems I twisted my knee in the process as it was sore last night and even more sore this morning. And it is of course my already very grumbly knee But there's no running today anyway- we're off to the plague house again shortly- so with luck I'll still be able to make the Friday group run tomorrow.

Lip Gloss 13 Jun 12:13pm, 13 Jun 2024 76,117 posts	0 Lip Gloss I’m not off to Derbyshire but will be going up North at the weekend. Went to yoga then decided it was too nice for the gym so did a run round KimCanRun ‘s neck of the woods

Groundhog 13 Jun 12:21pm, 13 Jun 2024 6,224 posts	0 Groundhog Not been running much over the last few weeks what with work and mum's fall, but I make more of an effort over the weekend and this week. Did the club handicap thinking I would be a bit rubbish, but only 6 seconds down on the last time I did it, so I was pleased with that. I need to think of another parkrun to go to this weekend as I might be in Hove or nearby on Friday night.
Sombrero 13 Jun 12:58pm, 13 Jun 2024 14,179 posts	0 Sombrero Groundhog, we loved Littlehampton parkrun and Worthing is great when its not windy! I'm in Derbyshire today as usual but off to see the parents tomorrow and doing Eastleigh parkrun Saturday.

Diogenes 13 Jun 2:06pm, 13 Jun 2024 86,446 posts	0 Diogenes Found my intervals much harder work this week. However, when I compared my efforts to last week's I see that I did do them faster, mostly (which was the plan) so it's fair enough it was uncomfortable.
Mandymoo 13 Jun 5:03pm, 13 Jun 2024 19,149 posts	0 Mandymoo Not managed to get anything done today apart from baking and sort out a new boiler!!! Not a good idea to go out for a run and get all hot and sweaty without shower facilities
LazyDaisy 13 Jun 6:02pm, 13 Jun 2024 40,247 posts	0 LazyDaisy Back from another day at the plague house. Son and granddaughter still really quite poorly; grandson improving but very up and down. Hoping to find improvements all round tomorrow. My knee is not great - quite hot as well as painful so it's just as well the forecast for tomorrow is thundery showers - even if T was better my knee needs more rest.
