Good luck els!

Local parkrun here as needed to get back by 10. Wasn't feeling like running, and had to have 3 walking breaks as my back was hurting, so a little surprised by a 1 second course pb! Ankle and back still a bit sore, not sure what to do about my long run tomorrow....

Tine that's a pain but like you say maybe good for your bike training.

Rfj good work trying to lose that pizza!

Happy Saturday all.

Go @ElspethF :)

Lyrics - no
What - just an easy half hour jog and then an hour shovelling an awful lot of earth about

why - corner of garden needs a proper revamp rather than the bodge I did during lockdown

@ElspethF past last checkpoint, on track to finish OK despite some navigation variances.
Ahead of 2nd FV60 by 32s so could be nail biting finish!

Afternoon.

Come on @ElspethF! Sprint finish? Early start this morning and great support by @PeterFay .

No parkruns in Switzerland either @tinebeest . Would maybe make it easier to do a hard 5k like I was trying to do solo this morning. (failed). Well done on your long run! Waiting for the train is something I regularly have to do! Not on bike commutes but often enough on runs. Good excuse for a breather.

Nice parkrunning @Velociraptor, @emzap and volunteering @lin50

Did you meet Gobi yesterday @RFJ ? More good work on the bike.

Hope the race went well @Derby Tup

If you get bored I have plenty of gardening to do too @Rosehip .

What: botched attempt at a hard 5k (was looking for around 23 mins). 4k warm-up then set off too quick likely (nothing new) and blew up half-way. Too hot. After some swearing and trotting I did at least do another 1.xk at effort.
Why: good question - shouldn't have tried that this morning or gone out earlier!
Last hard: above
Last rest: 7.8.24

Lyrics: no

Hiya
Derby - Hope the race was good, PBs are always celebrated with cake!
Peter - 7 is still a decent distance, sounds like Els is having a great run
rosehip - good gardening skills
Hazel - worth going for, fast 5k will come again
Well done everyone else getting out/park running

what - track session : 400,800,1200,600,200 nominally at mile pace
why - Saturday is track day
last rest - Monday
last hard - that was! Afternoon of weeding before settling in for the last night of athletics.

Brilliant 800m final!
lyric - don't think so

Could (tenuously) be Olympic related ...

Elspeth now left to start Devil of Highlands at 6. I will catch bus to Bridge of Orchy later (8:23) and run 7 miles back to Tyndrum. Stopped raining meantime. I will pick Elspeth up later today, hopefully from Fort William (cut off 6pm).

Last Hard: Edinburgh City Bypass and A84
Last rest: technically yesterday.
