Velociraptor 26 Jul 1:55pm, 26 Jul 2024 70,112 posts	0 Velociraptor Update: I've just realised what today's lyrics are! Came to me out of nowhere. And now I've got an earworm that I wouldn't have chosen. And also, I've run for 95 minutes and decided it's too windy for cycling to be much fun. Will go to a garden centre like an old person instead.
alehouse 26 Jul 4:14pm, 26 Jul 2024 152 posts	0 alehouse Update: just back from aqua jog. Just over 25 minutes including J x 30 seconds harder off 30 seconds, where J is the number of reps, i.e. 10. Years ago a swimmer told me that he could never remember how many lengths he had done, so used letters instead. He also played a game to relieve boredom, pass the time, etc: so today I did boys' names A to J. Sometimes it is girls', or the names of countries or flowers! Apologies if you already knew this! Definitely works for me! Re the lyrics, can't say that I am a fan of the song. And talking of lyrics, we will soon have had enough of the weather! Suggested topics welcome! A few thoughts: boys' names, girls' names, place names, colours, occupations, numbers, time (seasons, months etc)food and drink, and so on.

riggys99 26 Jul 10:28pm, 26 Jul 2024 3,607 posts	0 riggys99 Evening Lyrics - no What - 10k ish with hill sprints, running drills and strides. Next to where I do the drills is a semi circle of stone blocks for kids to play on so decided to do some jump on and straight off them (the blocks not kids) Why - strength work, injury prevention and a bit off fun Last hard - Saturday Last rest - Sunday

The Daily Thread

Each day someone sets some song lyrics, often on a particular theme, eg colours, numbers, running, etc. Others then say whether they know the song or not, but DO NOT say what the song is: the answer is revealed the next day.

Current theme: THE WEATHER

Contributors then say
What their training will be
Why they are doing it

Some also say
Last hard
Last rest

Plus of course general comments about the weather, other people’s training or races…or injuries!

Feel free to join us and why not set some lyrics once you get the hang of the thread?
