Name changed from MadMonkeys.

Just did 1.9 miles interval running tonight. I wish it wasn't so humid!

707.63+1.9=709.53

Did a 7km club run last night. Did it on the group above feeling it today but it was good and I think I held my own. Was good to push myself. Also ran there and back so that's 5.5 miles from me.

I just need my lo to settle for her daddy when at club although I suppose it is at baby witching hour in the evening.

Can't figure out if I am a morning or evening run person. Each has it advantages.

Early morning at 22 still sounds hot to me! Grin anglaise

11 miles from me first thing this morning when it was cooler, only 22°C Shock but better than 29°C this afternoon. I'm not complaining, guests are always much happier when the sun is shining....even if it is too hot for me.

About 4.5 miles to add here. We did a 5k run at club and had to run there and back makes 691.13.

TriJo · 15/07/2015 10:08

That should be 686.63, need more coffee...

TriJo · 15/07/2015 10:07

Craptacular run last night - legs were tired and it felt like I had two bowling balls strapped to my chest. Feck it, tis done though...

684.63

Envy of your sunshine neeko

Neeko · 15/07/2015 08:22

Lovely run in the 6am sunshine for me this morning. Shame its forecast to rain again from tomorrow.

Welcome back plebas. Smile

682.63

Sparklepup · 14/07/2015 22:50

5k club race tonight so 679.33

lastqueenofscotland · 14/07/2015 22:45

interval session with the club tonight, including jogging too and from the track i think about 4 miles. I paused bloody app at some lights and forgot to restart it so a guestimate! 676.23

cinnamongreyhound · 14/07/2015 21:20

4.2 from me, social club run. Got poured on but actually was cooling Smile 672.23

LornMowa · 14/07/2015 19:16

668.03 as I am adding my weekly total of 5.6.

I think one of my runs could be described as a Fartlek as I just randomly ran faster if I saw a lamp post or car in the distance that took my fancy!

familygermsareok · 14/07/2015 17:20

X post , 668.03

Good to hear you are recovering Phlebas, hope it all continues to go well.

cinnamon running is so addictive. I can't believe how quickly I changed from grumpily totally hacked off with it to all bouncy and enthusiastic again once I'd stopped running and got a banana and some water into me Grin

sophie the toy giraffe totally bypassed my DC but Usual Suspects is one of my favourite films Smile

4.67 slow recovery run in the rain today, accompanied by DS1.

647.66 + 4.67= 652.33

Anglaise1 · 14/07/2015 17:08

Phlebas glad your feet are holding up OK now you have re-started running. emummy how long until your HM, are you doing a 12 week training plan?
Purpletoes good luck with your club session. Moving up a group will probably do you good and push you more.
15.7 miles from me from the last 2 days. Still pointless running with no speedwork, but as there is a bank holiday today there is no club training session.

35 min easy run, week 3 of hm training
647.66

suzannecanthecan · 14/07/2015 15:29

11.61 from me
644.31

cloudy day so should have been cool enough but I wore a new t shirt and it was too close fitting and made me feel too hotAngry
must stick to loose tops!

Purpletoes · 14/07/2015 13:48

Adding 5.5 from me.

Did my first parkrun this weekend was great if hot.

Have club night tonight I might bite the bullet and move up a group and see how I cope with the faster pace!

632.7

phlebasconsidered · 14/07/2015 12:47

Back again from me.
Began running again on Sunday (3 miles) and did 4 miles today. Foot, toe , tendon holding up well so far. Aiming to get back up to 10 miles over 3 or so weeks, am less than optimistic about Hm though, given how hard those piddly miles were this week after a month off! And so much slower than normal!
627.2

AnnPerkins · 14/07/2015 06:47

Four very enjoyable miles from me last night.

620.2

MadMonkeys · 13/07/2015 22:19

A good run, I like the new music ????

3.6+612.6=616.2

cinnamongreyhound · 13/07/2015 21:50

I was the same with my first hm familygermsareok, although it took more than a few hours!

Lovely run with canicross club tonight, bit muggy! 612.6

MadMonkeys · 13/07/2015 17:24

Just downloaded some running music from Audio Fuel - looking forward to my run tonight. I'm planning to leave a curry in the oven for when I get back, that should motivate me!

KeyserSophie · 13/07/2015 13:51

Adding 5 to make 607.6. Not feeling the love- got laryngitis so it was ploddy. Skipped Crossfit this morning but felt kind of ok this evening so figured I'd just take it slowly. Can't talk at all other than whisper - was quite amazing how much I got done at work today though Grin.
