Good morning ❄️

Lyrics: No idea but guessed correctly following Dio's spoiler. My little sister used to have a toy gramophone that tinkled out the tune, and I knew what the tune was called from the label on the little plastic "record".

What: Some running, some walking, optimistic about getting outdoors because I've managed it every day this week. And maybe some strength training.
Last hard: Parkrun on Saturday.
Next hard: After the ice has melted, whenever that might be.

Just walking here today.

No to the lyrics
I wouldn't mind a little bit of warmth right now, -5 for the school run made for a very sad little Lucas with very cold hands on the walk!
No foot pain today after the physio/yoga/run yesterday

Happy Friday. Do you think we should reinstate crunchie Friday 😂

Afternoon!

Tried to run on nearby playing fields but far too rutted, so resorted to slipping and sliding along the river bank for a mile. Still -3, having warmed up from -7 overnight.

I have been to yesterday's place, notably for the 2014 Commonwealth Games which, despite being in August, was either freezing cold or extremely wet! And I have been to today's destination, including managing to get lost at parkrun!

Hiya
Sorry Hazel - I missed the 100k reference yesterday. Exciting though!
Ale - mixed blessings with work, I'd take the extra day off over the extra day's pay I think!
Rosehip - happy shopping

Riggys - glad to hear your Dad is out
Peter - looks decidedly chilly in yesterday's snap

What - easy 5 around Canary Wharf
Why - standard Friday pootle
last rest - 28/11
last hard - Tuesday
still very chilly but not that bad compared to other parts of the country!

lyric - don't know today, have been to yesterday's venue I think.

'Neath her tavern light
On this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down

What: a run of some description

Why: how long depends on where I can find to run
