ok peeps need a favour. my motivation is loooooow at the moment. I took my friends two beautiful, well trained, lovely and sweet german shepherds for a 2 hour walk across the fields yesterday, it was heaven and an absolute pleasure to be out with them but IT WASNT A RUN!!!! :eek: i did sweat, quite a bit, but i reeeeally need to get out there tonight.

would you all agree to issue a communal butt kicking to make sure i get out there? thanks!!!

Ok, a fluffy mule is gracefully thrown at your backside to get out there!

I can't wait to go again tomorrow morning - I keep thinking I might go tonight but I think my legs need a full day to recover. I am buzzing about running atm - hope I can maintain this feeling and not slope of in a CBA mood!

Good luck pania

thanks skinty!! Its needed trust me!!!!

i sooo need a running partner, anyone in driving distance of northampton?

really glad to hear that you have got the buzz. its a wonderful feeling when you get it so hang on to it!! is there anything else you can do tonight? like a swim maybe or a gentle cycle? keeping the muscles moving is important.

I did 20mins of pilates this morning but it doesn't feel like I have done anything so far today!

May go out for a run tonight - will see how I feel later on or go first thing in the morning

Do you think it's ok do keep running a few days in a row at Week 4 stage?

I will be on Saturday - I will wind down the window and place a well-aimed size 10 at you then, if thats any help

Did about 6k yesterday in under 30 mins :j and strangely un-achey today :think:

Will try and get a PR in on Saturday morning, but I have a long drive......

Sparky - if you feel ok, yes Ones body has a habit of letting one know when to rest, I find :cool: :rotfl:

pania

oooh lurkio where you off to?? just be careful not to hit me on the head ok!!! good news re not aching that body is obviously adjusting to the rigours.. i'm going to be brave in a bit and put my current weight and target onto my sig. gulp!! sparkles it is absolutely fine to run a few days in a row, just vary the distances. the best advice i can give (no expert believe me!!) is to listen to your body... it will tell you. x

I did 5 miles today in 44 mins...:) Pleased with that

pania
