no i dont Mrs TAZ. still very much a plodder,10 minute miler. usual run 3.5 - 4 miles 3/4 times a week around pond park/prince william/ballymacash area or hillsboro park. maybe consider a club when my fitness/ability is improved. how about you?
did my first runinthe rain last night,and it was great. was just a light rain and no wind,kept me cool on my run. really enjoyed it,although no doubtits different if its blowing a gale in your face and lashing it down but lastnight was fine. my times improving still for my usual 2.8 mile route so im gonna go out in car and see how i can adjust it to get it up to 3 miles. ultimately i want to look at doing 3.5miles regularly. as for rest days i hate the thought of not running daily and although im still a beginner i find it hard to go back if i take a day off. so i'm aiming to run daily. had new shoes two weeks now and seems they have worn in nicely and coupled with new way im lacing them they feel like running in slippers. very happywith everything right now except my chocolate addiction!!!
went out todasy at 430pm,felt quite energetic after a bit of gardening. two sausage rolls and stuffed bacon and brown sauce and coke and sticky donut at lunch made me guilty as hell!!!! did myusual 2.8 miles route in 29 mins and although my knee was sore after 1.5 miles it eased off as i got closer to home again.
also worked out secret to avoiding numb feet during my run. lace trainers a bit looser. felt a bit odd because i am so used to wearing my workboots tightly laced but it was like running in slippers when i got used to it.
so bareating the rubbish at lunchtime im pretty happy.
