The Retirement Thread

Morning, I feel tired

 

[Paulus]

Good morning all.
A sunny start to the day here. Temperatures are due to get up to around 23⁰ later on.
Dog walking duties early on, and then I'll be out on the bike for a while.
Yesterday's BBQ was a success, although I cooked too much, but that is today's dinner sorted.

I have risen!

Dry here but rain due for the afternoon. Mind you yesterdays rain with thunder and lightning never arrived at all........instead of which we had constant sunshine.

Morning.
Not the best nights sleep, must stop drinking tea in the evening.
Glorious morning so heading out to meet club for a social ride and cafe stop.

Last of the Rhubarb oat crumble, with plain yoghurt & blueberries, for breakfast and a 2lb loaf tin banana cake about to emerge from the oven..
The bananas I got from Tesco weren't nice to eat.. Let's see if they taste better in i cake!

Morning again.

I took the car through to Comrie and did a 4 mile jog there for a change. I really need to run more consistently as it’s hard work when you only do the odd run here and there. At least I got slightly faster each mile.

I think there’s Diamond League Athletics at 5pm so that will give me something to watch later.

I don't do running.. Some people, undoubtedly like you @Mo1959 , look as elegant as a gazelle when out & about...
Personally, if you can imagine Wurzle Gummidge had fathered Forrest Gump and given him amphetamines for breakfast, I don't 🏃

I can assure you I don’t! I am at least a stone too heavy and have legs weakened by lumbar disc and sciatic problems so am definitely a plodder.

Morning all

Nice sunny day again.
Shall be digging the Bantams out later for a ride down to the harbour. There's a street market on today and the Giro South West 'June Jaunt' is visiting. Lot's of small capacity bikes expected.
Will carry on from there to the White Horse for the Sunday bike meeting.

I don't run these days and was never much of one although I did enjoy it. Issue I had was my calfs would almost always knot up/cramp etc so it proved too much. Now I just cycle for endurance work and heavy weights for strength.

 

[Dave7]

Well, just open Father's Day presents.
1. An insect house. Need to work out where best to put it.
2. Box of Jelly Babies. Used to eat loads of them when cycling. Already eaten 2 of them.
3. Biography of Jurgen Klopp, should be good.

Breakfast will be porridge with blueberries and honey.

My eldest doing post grad in London so I got card this morning with photos of us when she was a toddler which was super cute. And I had no grey hair in the photos!

Bruce walked. Coffee made. Edgar Winter on the radio. Perfect.
