I must admit it’s been nice this week not having to run. I’ll stick to another walk tomorrow then do a parkrun.

I do love a track finish! The start was a bit of a nightmare - very congested and over very soft mud.
I’ve spent the rest of the week feeling knackered…end of term beckons…

Wise week LL. No prizes for running too soon after a marathon where you've been on your feet for a long time . Good running FF , squeezing time in to run is not the most pleasant training so you did well by upping the pace. A damp morning yet again here in Wales. At least no wind and the trails weren't too sodden. 3.4 miles walk/run was all I could manage and I feel back to struggling again even walking quickly. It'll pass.

Well done FF for yesterday's 9.3 miles run.
Well done Steve for this mornings 3.4 miles walk/run.
The usual Friday Farmers Walk this morning, and tomorrow will be the last of the season for the local parkrun to be held in Wilverley Inclosure, before returning to the college grounds.

Not so mild this morning with a chilly wind. Dry though so good conditions. 10k to keep above break even line with a non run/walk day tomorrow.

Struggled to keep up with fetch this week with various work trips and limited time at home.
Wow MrsB that is an incredible run esp on the back of a hectic week and impromptu dash home. Your training has def paid off. (It’s about my 10k time!)
How amazing to do a parachute jump then to go to Texas have the best time.
Great running and recovering and hope you C25K team do well Lesley.
I did a longer run yesterday cut short to visit in-laws normally I’d then carry on but the wind had drained me - woke this morning to a banging head, racing throat, cough and feeling like I’ve been in a tumble drier. So training halted which is not great as training should be peaking.

Well done Steve for this mornings 10k. I agree that it was definitely much colder.
Well done GG for yesterday's longer run.
I'm sorry to hear that you are feeling so rough since waking up this morning, and hope that you soon feel better. Very wise to take rest days from training.
A much higher than usual turnout for this mornings parkrun, 245, causing chaos for parking in the Inclosure and nearby parking area. I was very pleased with my 121st place, and 1st AG out of 3. The increase in numbers was probably because it was the last before reverting to the college grounds.

I had the opposite HS ( well done) mine had 29 runners I also got first in age and first of 29 on WAVA which pleased me.
Sorry to read you’re a bit off GG. Try not to panic.

Thanks LL. Well done for first in AG and WAVA.
I ran a solo 7k in the forest this morning, as I thought it would have been drying out. I couldn't have been more wrong, lots of flooding, and deep mud on the trails. I had to keep changing course as the mud was ankle deep in places. Thankfully, I was wearing my trail shoes which helped.

Hope your lurgy disappears quickly gg. Great result for you in park run hs, well done. Park run organisers here, locally, try to get participants to travel in more sustainable ways than by car especially where the big one (700+) takes place. Bit unrealistic really. There's a small one near here like yours LL, seldom more than thirty which would be more my cup of tea if I did such a thing! Well done again for your very muddy 7k hs.
I sort of enjoyed my non outing morning although walked two miles in the chilly wind!
