i am running about 3 to 4 four miles per run during the week.  definatley running faster than long slow runs as breathing much heavier and unable to talk !! first 10k was 78 minutes back in April and very hard, now much much easier.

Great to hear height and age not so much of a factor.

whats realistic?? i started running in the last week of February this year.  my pb for a 10k (last week) was 60 minutes.  I run between 3 and 4 times a week - short faster runs in the week and a longer slower one at the weekend.  I am a 43 year old female and quite goal orientated and perform well when aiming for something.  I would like a little advice on what times i could realistically aim for.  I am only 5 foot tall but not sure how much that would effect time.  Any ideas? thanks

more of the same then! was eating like that but the chocolate and booze have creeped back in......time to cut them out again - did it once so i am sure i can do it again....

loved the race,hoping to do a half marathon in November.  running makes me so hungry though!! Not been to an exercise class for many years so no idea what a plank is..........??!!

i could do with some advice also.  Have lost 2st since January, started running in march and did my first race yesterday.  All of me is still wobbly, my legs, arms, tummy......i am eating healthy foods, running 3 - 4 times a week, but i still just look like a smaller version of my bigger former self - any tips?? thanks
