(hope link works not used to doing it)
Managed 10.75 miles on Sun didn't push too hard, no hurting just tired afterwards took me 2 hrs 20 mins so think my aim of 2hr 30 for GNR a bit ambitious but we'll see

Maybe about 20 years ago - these days its little more than a sponsored advert for running gear makers to newbies :rolleyes:

1. owww there is one.
2. head up.
3. chest out.
4. stop breathing.
5. look cool.

No, no, no you've got it all wrong.

1. Wipe away drool.
2. Wipe away snot.
3. Check for bird poo on forehead.
4. Head up (remove any trace of extra chins)
5. Smile like it's not hurting one little bit.

Hi guys.

My name is hypno, and I am a newbie

Well, I might as well be :rolleyes:

BUT, today, after over three months of exhaustion and excuses.......and carrying an extra stone in weight.......I came home from work, got my (now tighter than is reasonably comfortable) running gear, and headed out.

No watch, no garmin, no goals, no races in mind, no idea of distance, time, or miles per min.........

.......but I did a good 20 minutes......nice and steady.......

AND I DIDN'T WALK

I have no idea where it will take me......I just need to get back into the enjoyment of it at the moment, get comfortable with it, and have no pressure.

Am I allowed back in the club

Hello stranger!!:D:D

Welcome back......

Helloooooooooooo

(we missed you ) Well done on the run

I missed you lot too - but I just couldn't do it. I know it sounds a cop out, but I didn't have anything left to give.

But, big kick up the backside, and I am bringing myself out of that lethargy cycle.

I was pleasantly surprised - I thought I would perhaps make the end of the road before walking the rest. Instead, I was able to plod consistently for far longer. I could probably have gone further, but I wanted the confidence element of getting round without stopping, rather than flaking out with half a mile to go.

I don't think I went far or fast enough to ache tomorrow - if I do, then it is a sign of just how bad I have let things get :rolleyes:
