Hi Everyone

I'm fairly new to running but looking to attempt my first half next year.

Has anyone taken part in the above mentioned event?

Is it a good one for a first try at making the jump from 10k to half?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone know where to get a good 10k training plan from?

The one on this website deals in metres and thats no good for a beginner like me.

Any positive suggestions would be gratefully recieved.

Thanks in advance

Well done dean! Its difficult isn't it! When you've done a sport for years you don't think twice about quitting after a bad session but when something is new thats a different story.

How long have you been running?

What are people's thoughts on this little gem? worth the money?

Thank you very much.

I think part of the problem is the fact i'm using a training plan for the first time.

Even though my plan may say run for 15 minutes I would run until I drop just because I felt OK at 15 minutes.

I'm an all or nothing person and so i'm finding the plan quite difficult to stick too!

Going away next week and looking forward to running on the beach for the first time ever, thinking a change of route will be good and make me re-focus again.

Caroline - your doing Great South too! Will this be your first race? How are you training for it?

Thanks again for your support x
