Dear Travellers

The San Francisco 49ers football team's bus has broken down and they have asked to come aboard our train to New York. Luckily for us they know how to tango :D :D

Happy Travels everyone :) :)

5.1k yesterday and 8.5 today. Two runs of 4+kms so I feel like I've earned my rest day tomorrow - hope the scales will be kind too...

Well done Garfield, you've definitely earned a rest day and I'm sure the scales will reward you too :)

Ok - I'm getting my head back in the right place and think I need to post yesterday kms as well as today.

Yesterday (Sat)

Me - 5.7k walk and 4.5k run = 10.2k

Mr L - 5.5k run (he valiantly ran further than me to get the car when my leg gave up and I started hobbling :-( )

Today (Sun)

Me - 4.7k walk

Mr L - 4.7k walk

You've both had a great weekend Lucca, except for the leg. I hope it's not something serious and that it'll sort itself out soon. Might be wise not to run for a bit :)

ā€¢ in reply tomoreless

Not sure what it is - think I've just pulled a muscle a bit doing some strength exercises a week or so ago. Walking is generally fine, but as soon as I start to run any distance it hurts - I shouldn't have done such a long run on it on Thursday, but it was only a mild niggle at that point...

I deliberately left my running stuff in the washing machine and didn't hang it out to dry to I couldn't use it this morning !!

After yesterday's injury well done on today's walking km. šŸ˜Š

ā€¢ in reply toasics

Thanks asics. Problem is that it lulls me into a false sense of security because it doesn't hurt when I walk. I think it's recovered and try and run again - and then the pain kicks in again after a couple of kms :-(

Will be thinking of you tomorrow FizzyLiz when little Miss Fizz comes to stay. Enjoy your evening with Mr Fizz, happy times ahead X

Another lovely sunny day today, it really has the feel good factor after the horrible wet spell we had. Two lovely walks with the Bu and hubby and a lazy evening planned so I'll clock my steps at 13336, 9.2 kms.

Hoping for a small weight loss tomorrow. Have a happy Sunday evening folks ā˜ŗļø

Only 2.5 km today but it's been a fabulous day.

An old school friend called and it's been nearly 20 years since we last saw each other !!! We've laughed,cried and shared so much it was like those years between have never happened .

Friendship is a wonderful thing, I feel very blessed.

Hi all. Today has not been great for me as my auntie who being 17 years older than my mum, was more like my grandma and confidante of my early teens passed away yesterday evening. I have done 6.5k a few steps shopping and the rest jogging on my trampette. Ed kept his end up and went for a bike ride into the dales and back chalking up 96.5k on the ride and another 6.3k combined steps and dog walking so 102.8 k for him :)

Liz I bet you're so excited for tomorrow! X

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stoneā€¢ in reply toFitforit75

Oh Kate, I'm so sorry for your loss. You must feel devastated. I can't believe you've even been able to clock up a single K, let alone 6.5!

I looked at Ed's number and thought I'd misread it! I want to do my usual OTT reaction to such a fantastic total, but fear it may be less than appropriate, so I may save it for a time when you're not feeling so sad. I'll just say well done Ed, you are magnificent and a superstar K Kicker! :)

Fitforit75 profile image
Fitforit75ā€¢ in reply tomoreless

Thanks moreless, to be honest we have been praying she would give in for weeks as she had lung cancer but she was tough! So although I am devastated I am finding myself able to look back and laugh at some of the things she used to say - rather than cry as much as I did through her suffering - if that makes sense... X

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stoneā€¢ in reply toFitforit75

That makes perfect sense Kate, nobody wants to see a loved one suffer. Happy memories are far better than miserable existence.

26.88kms for me consisting of14 mile run and General kms I am shattered and worried I won't make the distance in April, feeling confident about the Stafford half though 20th March 3 days before my birthday yawns- I registered a wedding after my run- working on auto pilot....

moreless profile image
morelessAdministrator7 stoneā€¢ in reply toPrin

I'm sure you'll manage the distance Prin, because you'll be running on adrenaline. It's amazing what we're capable of when we gear ourselves up psychologically and the body kicks in with the physical boost.

The half will be a walk in the park! You're way beyond the capabilities required for that! :)

Hmm........sounds like you're needing some time management ;)

Terrific K's by the way! :)

Evening fellow travellers

New York! sounds great wish we were actually there!, my colleague is there on her jollies at the moment having just posted a picture of the view from the Rockefeller Centre!

11.2 km on the exercise bike today and a lot of cleaning and housework which included a lot of walking up and downstairs (though I haven't measured the distance I've moved today).

Just catching up on the last couple of episodes of Mr Selfridge before bed.

Morning Everyone

My stats for the weekend are:

Friday - 6.11 km

Saturday - 6.3 km

Sunday - 5.97 km

Unfortunately, my fitbit ran completely out of charge on Sunday so I think the recorded km for Sunday is a little on the low side.

I'm back at work today and have reliable computer/internet access so hopefully I will get chance to have a quick catch up with how our travels are going.

Have a good Monday everyone.
