Big G sorry to read about your Dad, you cared well for him for a number of years, hope tomorrow goes well.
Shades sorry to hear about you Covid and missing IOM after looking forward to it.
Rcouture some great mileage, bet you’re glad to be hitting the roads rather than the treadmill belt.
WP I’ve always thought x training is shitty 😝
Ian hope the leg sorts itself out. A workplace hazard having to wear non running shoes and being on your feet for long periods.
Cal good to see you’re getting out still. Hope your patience is paid off.
Not much from me, after my fall I was in a lot of discomfort with the bruising. The leg still not not 100% and itchy where heeling. It have been for a few runs this week

Rcouture - I do minimal upper body work. Deadlifts are probably the best choice of exercise which will benefit upper body too. You used to do yoga, I don't suppose you have time now.
When I was working, I dabbled occasionally in gym/yoga but generally I only ran, nothing else. Not enough time and when I had the time I was too tired.
Bit uncomfortable running past an excitable pit-bull, you might have ended up doing some 100% heart rate sprinting 😱
I just looked at Sunday's forecast, a fraction cooler than forecast before perhaps.
Rob - sorry to hear that leg injury has been troublesome, but good you're back running.
Am taking a rest day today. I don't have DOMS but I do have tired legs from yesterday's gym.

Rob: Sorry to hear leg gave you so much grief but glad you are back running.
Shades; Sorry to hear legs are gym tired  Sounds like my legs I am going to swap long run to tomorrow and short progression run today. The rain also made the choice for me.
Did you see Saucony Triumph from Pete Bland last years version £102 and free postage.I had email yesterday from them.

WP - good idea to reschedule your long run for tomorrow.
I've had the same email from Pete Bland yesterday, haven't deleted it as I was going to have a look. I've always had great service from Pete Bland and if you're ever in the area well worth a visit to the shop.

Shades, I think you may have put the marathon list up? Just letting you know the image isn’t showing for me. Pretty hilly and technical in places mind you, and as I’m generally crap at off-road it’s a lot of walk breaks for me. But I do enjoy getting out there on the coast paths.
WP, I’m lucky here as miles of coat path to explore if I want to.
Robert, sorry to hear you’ve been struggling. I was wondering how you were getting on. Glad to hear you’ve been able to run again recently though.
Rcouture, you’re doing great. Do you have plans for your taper, which I guess is on the horizon?
7.5 miles today. HR high so pace slow, and still pretty humid.

(Not sure what happened there. Fat fingers I guess. The ‘Pretty hilly and technical….’ bit was meant to be part of my response to WP).

I had to change the status of the photo from private to public. That's a bit weird, why would I want to post a photo that only I could see. Anyway, mystery solved.🤓
