A nice week with all your favourite runs in. With the Pier to Pier being moved we don’t need to be doing more than 2 hours at the moment which means you can do parkrun on Saturday too. Any problems let me know. Keep up the great work Lou.

I couldn’t make circuits unexpectedly at the last minute so I did Pilates instead on Weds. Haven’t been for quite a while and it was so nice to do it again. It really does make a difference to aches and pains with all that lovely stretching and when the teacher is talking and naming the stretches I can sort of picture it linked to running and different parts of the body or post running stretches!
Well done Lou, always a good switch up. It’s worth taking some of your favourite stretches from a session like this and on the off chance you do ever get a spare 10 mins at home (or even work, unlikely 🙄) then do a few stretches to keep yourself loose.

I REALLY love Tuesdays. Every time. Tonight was a good session. It felt just right, effort and pace. I’m just aiming for consistent strong running at the moment and hopefully it will pay off . It almost felt too cold to come out but the thought of everyone else turning was surprisingly not too cold!
Fantastic running Lou!! It was actually alright once we got going wasn’t it. And once again that getting out the door was the toughest part. Always worth remembering that. Up and running for 2026. Great work!!

Bimble💙 & Strides

We got absolutely soaked and I mean soaked. It wasn’t a bit wet it was torrential. Possibly slightly poor idea to continue but when you have it in your mind that’s what you’re doing, the dedication sort of keeps you going… it was not such heavy rain half way in anyway. But it wasn’t my best form or speed and I didn’t have the best time. But job done! I did strides Saturday instead
We were in Eastbourne when the torrential rain came down. You’ll look back at this on future runs when it’s raining, and think, “well it wasn’t as bad as that Bimble we did”. I am impressed you all got the 60 mins done. Great job Lou

Easy parkrun

9 POINTS

Park Run cancelled so I did a 5k easy from home with longer-running Bimblers who scooped me up en route. Was really nice out and fresh conditions for it. Felt good to be up and out and not missing the run off my plan. I possibly wouldn’t have made the effort alone…… Once I left the Bimblers to finish their run, I did my strides 😇 very much thinking about form
Fantastic. Love this. And as you say it just feels good to know you’ve achieved what was on the plan. Excellent work Lou and thank you for doing the strides as well.

A great run today. It felt very tough at first but I think that was because it started uphill! It ran over quite a bit due to an over ambitious newbie who misjudged the distance versus time but everyone looped and it worked out. Not me though- I don’t loop!!! I nearly was spot on for 2 hours and very much hoping it doesn’t impact my training points or near perfect week!!! I actually ran very well and it felt very achievable and good!
Great work Lou. Sounds like a really good run this one and the bonus mins are always a positive. Loving the attitude and thank you for the feedback, it really does help.
