    I think you're doing really well, keep it going!

    4.4mi for me today. This is the longest I've run for awhile and I found the last half a mile really quite hard (slightly uphill) even though I started really slowly. First mile was the slowest. I had 3x 20sec walk breaks after uphills that I found hard and breathing was really heavy afterwards. Really slow run but felt good. It can only get better! :)

  • Great going tirlittan and fedupandskint :)

    I had a really good 2.5 mile run yesterday (on treadmill!) and am debating whether to run today or stick to my guns and run every other day. Felt like I had loads left in my legs yesterday though, but had to stop because I had to go and pick littlies up from school :)

    Anyway, feeling good and hoping that getting back to running will sort out all these extra lbs that have crept in since I stopped :mad: :p

    Good work LittleMissHappy! I'd keep to your decision of running every other day as you've just gotten back into it. Don't try to do too much.

    Ran tonight - only a short one - 40mins there and back just to get out and get it over and done with in the cold. Hoping to go for the longer run on Friday if can brave the cold!

    It was cold today and wasn't looking forward to my lunch time run but when I got out there it was lovely and sunny and not too cold at all. Another 3miles done.
