Hi everyone
Plodding on as usual - did 6.18 miles this morn before the rain sets in again!!!!
Ive contacted a trainer in chelt and hopefully going to have a chat with him next week to see if he can help me move on in anyway? Cant really afford it so hope i could perhaps see him once a month and he'll give me 'homework' to do inbetween visits?
Still looking to enter something - i know im a whally but will get round to it eventually!!!!
Seej hope your knee is getting better each day and youll soon be back to full strength x
Toby good going with diet and Seej too.
Struggling myself to lose weight think i need to up the exercise time?
Hope u all stay safe in this awful wet weather

off to W/W tomorrow not shore about the weight loss this week as we’ve been away for the weekend and tracking the points was easy so will have to see Boscombe went ok and although it rained all of Saturday Sunday started dry and for a moment thought we were going to keep dry not to be got to the last mile and a half and empted down we were last to finish by a long way and according to my Garmin we took 1:24:36 but the run felt faster than that so will wait for the official time to be posted

Hi yuall!!! Well did my 'walk/run', about 4.5 miles with lots of walking. Felt a little uncomfortable at times but nothing really bad but tomorrow morning will be the result, I hope it is not too bad!!!!!!

Good on ya Nessie, well done for getting out and doing the mileage!!!! Glad to hear you are back in the race mode, keep it going. It is chuffing freezing in the city it must be brass monkeys in the country!

Well done Toby, perciverence, you started so you will finish!!! Time is relative to the course and the feeling on the day, finishing is the most important, specially in this weather.

Morning all

Have decided to start my Brighton training a little early so am going to repeat the week 1 training schedule for a couple of week not going to stick to it religiously but need to build the mileage up a bit before the training plan starts in earnest

So did 5 miles yesterday should do 6 today but as i did 6 Sunday may just do the other 5 miles so i can have a rest day Thursday before the 10 on Friday

Seejay hope the legs are OK today

morning all

well the 10 miler never happened combination of hard week at work (4 x 12 hour shifts) and daughter being down for the weekend and it being the first time I've seen her since September and wanting to spend some time with her

the whole family's off in a minute for the Santa's on the run fun run it's only a 1.5 miles but a lot of fun as I've said before

afternoon all

6 miles for me today have to say struggled all the way around ending up with splits raganeing from 9:05 to 11:05 so not the best run ever but got plenty of activity points out of it so there's a plus

Hello.....Remember me?

First of all I owe the lot of you an apology for not posting for ages. The last two weeks have comprised of attempting to recover from a knackered knee, a stomach bug, which really took its toll and working away from home. Totally remiss of me considering all of you manage to post whether you run or not!

Anyway, I am focused now on preparing for Bath Half. I ran an easy 1.75 miles on Monday, followed by 3.25 miles last night. The good news is there have been no issues with the knee. I'm hoping to increase steadily over the next few weeks so that I can easily mnage 6-7 miles by the end of the year. I hope everyone is good and I'll do my best to stay in touch!

Another errant poster! Hi everyone. Hope you are all ok.
Two weeks ago I fell flying running to my car- late for running club. Bit shaken but not stirred, ran that night and again later in week but didn't feel right so cancelled a race or two and ....await for it..... Haven't run since!
I had really hurt my wrist but did weights classes and press-ups without too much discomfort, then a slight movement would really kill, so on Saturday went to hospital and my wrist is broken. As I was put in a cast, I can't drive and whereas the pain WAS a general dull ache, with the occasional twinge, I'm now in a lot of pain so can't sleep. Wish I hadn't gone to hospital now. I had a bone scan today so they'll decide next week if I need further intervention. Pain in the .....wrist!!!
Going to try a run later and see if I am a former runner.
