A rare post work, mid week run this evening. Almost enjoyed it! Cold, really cold out. Didn’t have any expectations, didn’t try to push pace, just wanted to complete the three mile route with out stopping & managed it! A little win. Plan is rugby training Thursday & back to parkrun Saturday. #runner #running #garmin #strava #workoutsnap #poole #run #lonelygoatrunningclub #beardedrunner #myoddballs #instarun #runstagram #midweekrun #ukrunchat #runningcommunity #runhappy #runstats #lonelygoatrc #instarunning #rundorset #rebel #weightlossjourney #injuryrecovery #itsokaynottobeokay (at Holes Bay Nature Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnzz6rHrXUH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finished work early today, as I’m in tomorrow. Tried to squeeze a run in before it got dark. I didn’t manage it. First run of the week after testing positive for covid Monday. Missed rugby training too. I enjoyed last week, I’ll be back next week. Because of rugby Sunday morning & work tomorrow no running over the weekend. Weather doesn’t look good for the fireworks tomorrow, shame we do need some inspiration to blow up parliament. Or at least some political engagement so we can force change. #runner #lonelygoatrunningclub #garmin #workoutsnap #run #running #strava #instarun #runnersofinstagram #rebel #runningcommunity #poole #instarunner #instarunning #lonelygoatrc #runstats #beardedrunner #ukrunchat #runhappy #myoddballs #runstagram #rundorset #weightlossjourney #injuryrecovery (at Poole, Dorset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkjJ1c1L1TP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally got out for a run this week, been really busy one with lots going on. The heat hasn’t helped either! Just a short tour of the old village as up at me dads for the weekend. Pleased to make the effort, but felt hard. Ankle not ideal, loosen off after the first mile. Don’t think driving up yesterday helped, lots of stop start traffic. Definitely looking at an auto, if I do eventually get a new motor. Got a couple of days off this week so hopefully make up for last week with a bit of luck. Off to the Dassett hills for a picnic for lunch, kids want to eat pork pies in front of the ‘pork pie’ 😂 #runner #running #run #lonelygoatrunningclub #workoutsnap #garmin #strava #sundayrunday #runnersofinstagram #runningcommunity #instarun #instarunning #runstagram #beardedrunner #ukrunchat #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatontour #runhappy #newbalance #myoddballs #weekendaway #weightlossjourney #southwarwickshire #lonelygoatrunners #injuryrecovery (at Bishops Itchington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgYtGDVorW_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Leg stretcher after work. Trying to get back in the swing of three runs a week. Frustratingly the path under the bridge out to holes bay was closed! Let me a little short of 5km with the detour. Of course I could have pushed the bit further needed. However just about getting out, trying to enjoy it. No Poole parkrun tomorrow, would have, I think, first time running three weeks in a row. I’ll try to get out to another local one. There is plenty of choice, just depends what time I get up! #runner #run #strava #workoutsnap #garmin #lonelygoatrunningclub #runnersofinstagram #runstagram #instarun #instarunning #beardedrunner #weightlossjourney #myoddballs #newbalance #bedefiant #runstats #ukrunchat #running #runningcommunity #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunner #poole #holesbay #rundorset #fitover40 (at Poole, Dorset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdePhgiLrRk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Getting back in the swing of things now knee feeling okay. Just 30 mins on my feet. Started to rain as I finished so no post run photo, just a post breakfast in kitchen! Felt okay, just slowed up on the up hills in the second half of the run. Last minute change of route. Hopefully I feel okay to go again Thursday. #runner #run #strava #garmin #workoutsnap #lonelygoatrunningclub #rebel #tuesdaymorningrun #poole #oakdale #rundorset #running #runnersofinstagram #instarun #runnngcommunity #runfasted #runstagram #instarunner #beardedrunner #runstats #fitover40 #weightlossjourney #lonelygoatrc #lonelygoatrunners (at Poole, Dorset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdXh9CmoOUv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

After a week of knee feeling fine & resisting the urge to go running in the week. I got up early enough & made my way to Poole park this morning. It wasn’t fast, although it did pick up the pace a little in the last 400metres. But I completed it. After having to stop Easter weekend, I’m very happy I got round in one piece. I went off a little fast, but if felt comfortable. It wasn’t until I checked the time for the first mile I realised it was a bit quicker than intended. I did struggle in the middle, at times it felt like I was running in treacle & then going backwards! However once in the home straight I sucked it up & pushed on to the end. I opened up a little in the last few hundred meters, but not the pace I’ve had in the past. I can’t cal it a sprint finish, hopefully that will come with time. The weather was about perfect & with the long sleeved undershirt I was a little over dressed. I hope it stays for the whole of the bank holiday weekend. Plan is to get out at least once in the week & prepare for pacing event next week I’m going to attempt to follow the 30 pacer & out sprint them in the final 100 meters. I know I’ll be with about 100 trying to do the same, so if not I can live with it. The plan post c25k was run all the park runs between finishing the course & pacing event so I would be ready to go under 30. Missing a couple of weeks has left me undercooked, but it will be my best chance for a while. ‘To fail means at least I tried. Not to try is the true failure’ #parkrun #strava #garmin #workoutsnap #lonelygoatrunningclub #rebel #runstats #pooleparkrun #poolepark #lonelygoatrunners #instarun #instarunning #run #runstagram #runner #running #newbalance #adidas #myoddballs #betruesapien #dorsetquayperformance #weightlossjourney #ukrunchat #beardedrunner #runhappy #lonelygoatrc #injurycomeback #fitover40 #rundorset #bankholidayweekend (at Poole Park Duck Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc-IokfNYyi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Almost done, didn’t run yesterday morning due to physio appointment, so squeezed it in tonight after work. Out of the usual routine & it showed. Definitely a passenger on the struggle-bus. Did my 30 mins, but nowhere close to 5km. One more run & couch to 5km finished. I think since I need a couple of days rest I’ll likely pop down to parkrun for my final run of the course. Not been eating great the past couple of days. I think I felt it on the run tonight. Been doing really well last 6-7 weeks, but Monday I was just hungry, yesterday better, but over again today. I know a couple of bad days doesn’t ruin the progress. But I need to not let it last too long or it will difficult to recover. Going to be sensible until the weekend. #garmin #strava #workoutsnap #lonelygoatrunningclub #rebel #runner #running #runstagram #instarunner #instarunning #instarun #lonelygoatrunners #beardedrunner #wearedefiant #newbalance #lonelygoatrc #weightlossjourney #poole #c25k #couchto5k #runstats #ukrunchat #myoddballs #runnersofinstagram #runningcommunity #baleafsports (at Holes Bay Nature Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcBgBYwrYOv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
