    Thats right, a bit of a viscious circle with the less you run the more stressed you get, including about not running, and therefore the less you feel like running!:rolleyes:

    But the opposite is also true so a virtuous circle of the more running you do, the less stressed you are...and therefore the more you want to run.:D

    Until you get to a stage where you feel a bit peeved that you've got a rest day, and its nice and sunny and you want to go for a run......:p But I'll get over it - probably with custard therapy as usual!:D :D:D

    Anyway, glad you're loving it again.

    I want to go out too :o, but I'm surpressing mine with cheese puffs :D:D

    Yes its possible UK - you can already run 6.5 miles - but you wont be tearing round in training or you'll get an injury - and you'll have to use it as a base for better times later on...up to you!

    Depends what you want to achieve tbh.

    To go from running 10K to running a half in 9 weeks should be no problem. If you've got a specific target time, then its a 'maybe'.

    It only does with the footpod thing - but I think it tends to come with the 50...

    Well, I've got a nokia 6680, so not sure if it's possible to use that. Fairly bulky as well. On the other hand, it is very MSE!
