    According to Google calculator I jogged 1.5 miles in ten minutes :rotfl: That's pathetic isn't it.

    Not as bad as *not* jogging 1.5 miles...

    Inky,
    I am 'average' leaning towards short. Always wanted to be tall. I am between 5'3 and 5'4.

    thats almost midgetry! lol

    i always thought i was short then i went to ireland (no offence) where they are all on average, shorter than me (6ft)

    my mate however, is like 6ft10 or something silly, so i felt short for years. but new job its all short women, weay! tall again!

    how many times a week are you running now..sorry all the questions just impressed by how quickly you have improved your distance!

    Sally, I am trying to do four runs a week, as suggested by the running coach on the weekend. He suggested a recovery run, a hill run, a threshold run and a long run.

    I discovered it was a mixture of my own fear of not being able to manage running without stopping for a rest and mixed ability of runchums that was holding me back.

    We now run seperately three times a week and get together one day a week to do the long run.....we all run together but end up running seperately....the one in front then loops back picks me up on the way back, we then run past slower runchum and then run back again...it means we all run different runs but for the same amount of time....

    I have also discovered that I get more into a run after about 5k......and start to enjoy it...

    Well, Buffy was looking for ideas on a job working from home....:D

    Possibly, we are in the same county (I think ?), although I don't think she'll need anymore trouble with those snails, although how would you tell if a snail was on drugs:rotfl:

    hello you gorgeous bunch
    its been chatty in here this afternoon/evening only just managed to catch up! Had a very productive day but seems the house is a tip again within 10 mins of cooking supper and DH coming home :(

    Early morning running is lush..its hard to get out of bed but its quiet, you can listen to the birds singing and for me I run much quicker and it gets you going for the day
    Do you run without music Sall? I couldnt do that
