emummy Indeed. We are having a very nice January. We even get the occasional beach day even though it's technically winter - Feb-April is our miserable and damp season.

19k trail race today. Managed a second place, 90 seconds behind the winner so scooped the veterans prize. Decent prizes- nice trail running top for podium and gym crop top for age category win.

A very very chilly parkrun

Lovely steady 10 miles this morning, a little milder and little ice so more pleasant.
Brilliant race result Keyser, well done! Hope the nice weather continues

Great result Keyser congratulations on your podium.
Temperatures of -5°C here so running chilly too, but lots of lovely sunshine.
52.5 miles to add for the week, running a lot due to another relationship biting the dust.

Brilliant well done KeyserSophie!

Canicross 10k Saturday with my fastest time in a while 56:17, first race with both dogs since Nov 2014, due to a variety of things. Lovely course if a bit tough, spent the first half looking at my watch deciding I couldn't run that fast and then the second half not looking as I clearly was running that fast and it wasn't helping 😂
Today did my long run, almost as far as last week but much quicker due to who I was running with and my legs felt it at the end. -6C at 10am here!!!!!! 459.5

Training plan has this week as an easy rest week, very nice! So nice short easy run this morning.
Sounds like you have had some lovely runs still! A seaside holiday sounds great.

lastqueenofscotland · 24/01/2017 23:26

Thanks for correcting my maths!!! God knows where I got that number from.

16.4 to add

Working on running my two easy runs a week really reall easy, going like shit off a shovel for two speed sessions and one long session a week and it seems to be working...
Oh and eating less crap Blush

stilllearnin · 25/01/2017 13:07

You're going great lastqueen

I have just 3 to add and it was really very cold, checked the forecast and colder tomorrow! Intervals today so managed to warm up a bit, but an easy run scheduled for tomorrow and a longer one this weekend brrr!

487.26

KeyserSophie · 26/01/2017 05:02

Exactly 50k (so 31.25 miles) to add from Sunday onwards, including the track session from hell (I snuck off home half way thru- the shame!) and a longish run today (23k of trail).

Going skiing tomorrow so it'll be treadmill or nothing from me until 6th Feb.

Sirzy · 26/01/2017 06:29

I managed 9 miles yesterday! Longest run yet and a good thing as I have a half in March. My legs aren't my friends this morning though.

20.4 miles so far this week!

538.91

cinnamongreyhound · 26/01/2017 08:22

Well done Sirzy and lastqueenofscotland, impressive running.

Made me smile you snuck off home keysersophie!

I forgot to add my 6.4 miles from Sunday Shock longest run since baby, suffering from a bad back and tight right glute this week Sad

561.5

emummy · 26/01/2017 11:25

Run with Dh this morning. He always wants to go fast but the rule is she who's doing the marathon sets the pace! So a mix of easy and steady paced sections. Ok day, but breezy.
Hope your sore bits all settle down MyBlackCat.

stilllearnin · 26/01/2017 22:01

Nice rule emummy
Very chilly 3.6 today. Shitty mood = great run!

emummy · 27/01/2017 10:57

Wee hill session this morning. Bitterly cold and grey day, though it might snow but brightening up now. After hot coffee, toast and a shower I still feel cold!
