Congrats on your HM Kimme what a great reduction in time taken!
Good luck with your marathon this week Last Queen
Just 10 miles to add from 2 runs this week, but it is nice to be running again. I signed up for a 11k race in Dinan a couple of months ago and am thinking of doing it now leg is feeling better, but there are 2 killer steep hills to go up and it might finish me off, but I'm still tempted....

Interval session this morning. Weekend plans all changed as dm had heart attack yesterday so had to shoot down to see her; have abandoned dh & dcs for weekend. She's doing fine though, so was able to enjoy my run in the sunshine, on road with no hills!

Sorry to hear about your mum emummy I hope she continues to do well.

emummy · 18/09/2016 10:03

Thanks karate, she's making good progress so far. Got amazing treatment at local hospital.
Great run this morning, got new 10k pb by over a minute! Really chuffed as I don't always manage to push myself so happy runner!

Brilliant sirzy, well Done!

Sirzy · 18/09/2016 13:33

Thanks emummy, I'm knackered now!

LaughingM · 18/09/2016 20:23

Wow sirzy great PB, well done!

And emummy gosh that must have been an awful shock. Glad your DM is making good progress and you even managed a great run in the midst of all that!

I haven't run all week Blush. With no particular reason other than being busy and choosing my sofa over my trainers... Thought I could go after work tomorrow but have just remembered a late meeting, so probably won't make it out till wednesday. Annoyed at myself now!!

lastqueenofscotland · 18/09/2016 20:50

4th marathon and a 5 min PB. Edging closer to sub 4'

stilllearnin · 19/09/2016 08:42

Blimey emummy - I'm glad you got out for a run though - look after yourself and best wishes for your mum's recovery.

And fantastic PB's lastqueen and sirzy

11 miles from me in new shoes. (ebay purchase, so I'm relieved).

cinnamongreyhound · 19/09/2016 16:02

7.86 today with my friend for her hm training, she did 9miles but travelled to me first!! So knackered but had a great run, didn't think I had that distance in me these days!!! 396.76

I'm terrible at this thread!
I'm still having some aching in the hip, but completed about 3 miles in the mud at my parents' house in rural Hertfordshire. A bit slippy, but a route I couldn't have completed a year ago.

CeciledeVolanges · 20/09/2016 07:05

So 399.76.
Well done for all those PBs. Very selfishly that's why I love this thread already :)

emummy · 20/09/2016 11:54

Lovely sunny run in the forest, temp cooler, so much nicer!

cinnamongreyhound · 21/09/2016 13:15

Arrange to run with my neighbour, because she can't go Thursday but it seems we killed her Monday with her joining us for 4 miles so ended up going with my usual running buddies but for the shorter route I do with my neighbour. It's getting dark by 7.15 Sad 411.66

OP posts:
cinnamongreyhound · 22/09/2016 10:11

Usual Thursday morning run for me 415.66

emummy · 22/09/2016 11:31

Good paced tempo run this morning, really pleased. It's certainly easier now that the weather is less tropical!

lastqueenofscotland · 22/09/2016 20:24

Cinnamon the dark nights are already upsetting me and the clocks haven't changed yet 12.5 to add since Sunday

karatekimmi · 23/09/2016 06:15

After this weeks success I'm planning on running to and from work, from my childminders again!! I just need to remember everything to drop off at work today!!

I'm doing a 10k on Saturday and hoping to get in under 60mins ; it's an "undulating" trail run.

I'll have a look at my mileage this month and add it on - I'm hoping for 100 miles this month!

stilllearnin · 23/09/2016 09:00

Hi I am just adding 4.25 from yesterday. My ds is home ed again and although he does not live with me, I get to take him to maths group so I managed a little outing in an unfamiliar town while he was working on fractions (I got the better end of that deal).

438.95

CeciledeVolanges · 23/09/2016 09:28

Fast-ish 2.5 miles from me last night - though I was clumsy with my stopwatch and don't know exactly how fast. It is getting dark :( I was teased for saying I didn't want to cycle home in the dark at 6:30, but by the time I got back it was dark!
