Dark Satanic Treadmills

Oh, there has been a slight hiatus in my usually very strict training schedule. We elite athletes need to keep to the rules, and I believe my membership of the Elite Running Club (ERC)  is under review following recent weeks of lacklustre training. Rumours are afoot that we could be facing a DEXIT, and who … Continue reading Dark Satanic Treadmills →

Dreadmill Friday

This morning found me prevaricating about where to run. Last night I had thoughts of returning to the Brampton Valley Way for a gentle run, but there was a definite chill in the air this morning. This was confirmed by our very technical weather monitoring equipment in the garden. Yes, the birdbath was frozen. Erring … Continue reading Dreadmill Friday →

Yule Training Log

[Post-Christmas note - this article was originally posted with a header image of me in a funny Christmas hat, with sheep in the background, and the header title "Psychologist on the Sofa", with the strapline "Hey, if the hat fits, why not rest a while?"] Welcome to my special festive look blog! It is the … Continue reading Yule Training Log →

Booster Rockets and Running from Lions

I can understand if the title seems a bit dramatic to describe my Recovery Plus run today, but please allow me to provide some context. My three year-old grandson (Noa) is still here, and, as you can imagine, this necessitates a shift in priorities. We have been to the National Space Centre in Leicester and … Continue reading Booster Rockets and Running from Lions →

On Track and Off Track

You will be pleased to learn that this is not one of my famous quasi-training posts, I actually managed to get out and do a bit of running today. Admittedly, it was not a Tempo Tuesday - I am far from my springtime level of fitness due to a lingering bug (and I am no … Continue reading On Track and Off Track →

Thomas the Tank Friday

In Memoriam - Ineke Poultney This is my first post since the sad passing of Ineke last week after a courageous battle against cancer. She showed her unique humour and quirky view of the world until the end. She was always prompting me to blog, and it seems my humour and photography were greatly valued … Continue reading Thomas the Tank Friday →

Everybody Be Happy – It’s Tempo Tuesday!

The title was inspired by my little grandson as he walked through the supermarket today beseeching everyone to be happy! I added the Tempo Tuesday, of course, with just a slight hint of sarcasm. These runs are a bit more demanding than my gentle little jogs and recovery runs - I always seem to be … Continue reading Everybody Be Happy – It’s Tempo Tuesday! →

Falling for Autumn

Haha, I'm only joking - my first run since the end of September and I didn't fall over! However, autumn is a very special time of the year. Come October, I can feel the Earth slip on its axis and there is a perceptible shift in the light-dark balance. Next weekend sees the end of … Continue reading Falling for Autumn →

Vicarious Sofia Sunday

I think the word vicarious has ecclesiastical origins, so it is fitting for a Sunday post. By good fortune I have found myself here in Sofia on the day of their marathon. I went to have a look at the runners as they ran round the Palace of Culture. There was quite a long uphill … Continue reading Vicarious Sofia Sunday →
