Thank you Andy🙂
 
I do 3 x 20min walks every day. average. (unless it's chucking it down!)
 
Excellent Richard 🙂 Well done everyone, I've just had a few sessions with Gay Gasper this week, my 1000 mile trip to Glasgow and back took a bit out of me 😱

hi Northener I hope that you've recovered from your Glasgow trip. Susie and I are pleased to announce two 50 minute walks:D

Excellent! Well done to you and Susie! 🙂 I've just about recovered but now the Glasgow crew are tempting me with a return trip in October! 🙂

Oh dear if the Scottish hospitality is anything like I've experienced before you will probably want to pencil out several days for recovery in October🙄

Hehe! I couldn't have been looked after better, it was the 1000 mile round trip that I had to recover from! 😉
 
Mmmmmh now I wouldn't like a 1000 mile journey after lots of alcohol......not that I am even for a moment suggesting that you had anything to drink Northener🙄 I am extremely pleased to say that for the first time in more than three weeks Susie and I were able to go on our 50 minute walk on our own and everything went well, I'm really pleased:D
 
3 miles in the pouring rain and howling gales yesterday by the time I'd visited two banks, the surgery and done my shopping. Do I get any extra for wind resistance?
 
Another 15km rowing for me.

Today's session was rowed to the dulcet tones of Chris Rea (Album : God's Great Banana Skin).

Andy 🙂
 
Another two lots of fifty minute Susie walks....just the two of us walking round a very large leafy park in the sun lovely🙂
 
A 10km row today to the sweet refrains of Pink Floyd's The Wall.

I finished just before the final judges verdict! 😎

"The evidence before the court is incontrovertible
There's no need for the jury to retire ......"

Andy 🙂
 
Thats excellent Andy - how are the legs these days?
 
..... how are the legs these days?

They're pretty much behaving themselves thanks. 🙂

They're a little twitchy this evening, but there is no sign of the really harsh cramps. I'm going to try another 10km tomorrow and then have a day off (maybe two).

Andy 🙂
 
Managed a run today for the first time in a while (calf injury :() Did better than I thought I would, although it was very humid even at 7 am, so I was rather hot when I got back!
 
Did about 10k yesterday, we went off to the coast and walked from Lossiemouth to Hopeman past the Sculptor's Cave, tide was coming in by then so we had to scarper.

Well done! Sounds like a lovely walk Ally 🙂
 
Took Kite (the dog) up Siabod this morning. Fortunatly it was quite chilly on top - had to roll my sleves down. Allow 5 mile
Did 24.37 on the bike on Wednesday, if you would like to include that as well.
Mike.
