haha yes that would be terrible

I'm kind of over worrying, i always do, that i will just run out of energy. I did read some people bought the lucozade runners pack which is like £40 but it seems a lot of kit and i'd be worried about over doing it

Lucozade Shop Promotion Code - Use the promotional code LP286 or BU11 for a good 20% discount..

That running pack is now £29.99 with free delivery


Will may have to ring up to buy it, but can be selected online. Tell them a friend gave it you if they ask.

Every little helps..

I bought some stuff from the shop with these codes, i found someone to go halfs on a box of energy bars. It worked out to be £8.50 for 12 bars, which is cheaP.

I'm back (and showered and now full of chinese food ) from my second session with NS Poly running club. Tonight we ran from Monkseaton into Cullercoats, then got split into groups again. We had an easy run along the top road above the beach, then walk down the ramp onto the beach, then a hard run across the sand and up the steep ramp on the other side and then an easy job back to the start! We were to take it in turns leading the hard run so I went first. And by the time I got to the other side of the beach for the steep ramp my legs and lungs were screaming! OMG it was soooo hard!:eek:
Then we had a 1 minute recovery before we had to do it again! We didn't do a third - well not quite - we had to run along the top down to the bottom of the ramp and then back up. And then a jog back to the clubhouse. Just under 5 miles in total in 1 hour.
My calves were really feeling the pain tonight and I'm knackered now :rotfl:

jpwhittle- hope you make a quick recovery, look after yourself and take it easy.

A nice 4.36miles yesterday eve (8.54/mile), planned to run this morning but woke with nasty sore throat and feel awful. Have had a quiet day today (or as quiet as possible with 2 children!) but still feel grotty and hurts to eat!!!! Hoping will be short lived and can get out at weekend.

Well done K_bagpuss- so impressed

Looking at the 'Kilomathon', its not cheap. £29.50 to enter.

Hmm...i need some £10 events.. or some bookies to give me some more free cash.

Hey guys,

I went back to the running club tonight (the first time I've been able to go in two weeks due to work :rolleyes:). I ran a mile, in bits, which is an improvement. I just need to sew all my pieces together and keep going. (It should be easier as I've asked work to give my Mon & Thu evenings off so I can go to the running club.)

In other news, I went to the doctor and asked about my knee. He pushed it back and forth a bit and said there was basically little to go on for the minute, but my knee is definitely not right after running this evening. I'm not crippled or anything, but I want to know what it is in order to make sure I don't get that way. I'm going back, but what do I do? Ask for a referral to a specialist or is that overkill? I've never gone back over something before!

Ive found a VLM place for £850, its a charity etc.

Reading through the terms, apparently they will put me on a charity blacklist if i fail to meet the full amount. Well thats not too bad as i might never want to run the VLM ever again..

Its on eBay..

The only good thing about that is you would get some Quidco back :P

other than that I would leave it well alone... Charity Black list??? !!!!!!............

sorry In a pickle..........Very wll done ....and not long now simply ... look forward to your results from that day

Didnt do my Friday run or park run saturday because my legs were hurting after thursdays long run it gave me a sore calf and i pulled something in my hip/thigh (felt like a tight ligament I think)area on Friday afternoon. However Got back out on Tues and did a slow test run 4.53M 52.09mins @11:31pace. Skipped wednesday because calf was playing up again and I wanted to be able to do my long run which I did yesterday
11.58M 2:17:11 @11:51pace :j. I took it nice and steady wanted to
A. Not make last weeks mistake and
B. Make sure I made it home

I had plenty in the tank so I am sure I can go a lot faster and I know I can deffo run a half marathon without walking. Of course my body tried to fight me all the way round it went something like this, shoulder stitch,pain in right chest,pain in left chest, calf pain,toe pain etc :rotfl:.Tell you what though I feel bloomin great today.

P.s sorry for the long post
