So mrs ... Half marathon then ?

skint_spice

Yes, me dear, I shall look for a plan for you and start upping my mileage! Did 5 and a bit miles today - getting a bit too comfortable and lazy and not upping it .

Got something to hand in on Monday though so will concentrate on that first... Honest Butti! x

elantan

No worried I've got plenty to keep me plodding just now anyway ... Week two looks hard ... It's gonna be a while till I can run 5 k then I need to work on 10 then think of maybe 10 miles before tackling the half ... But just now doing 5k is my goal ( with half marathons in the distant picture of course )

Good luck getting your work done for Monday ... I'm tempted with this icecream maker tbh

I found getting to 5K was the hard bit, once you can run for that long it's a skoosh just building up the distance. It's hard but you will get there.

I made the icecream by hand! Still haven't found the beater for the icecream maker It was a recipe out of Takeaway Secret.

Ooooooo I have that book will go look it up ... Currently trying to stay away from the freezer an the Ben and jerrys now ... The mere mention of icecream YUM

I think your right I think once I get to being able to run constantly I will find it easier ... That bit is just gonna take time that's all .... And I need patience to let it

Butti, can you please edit your post further up with my name in?

Yes, sorry about that Skinty. I had a look before and didn't spot it!

Do you think I could join you on a half marathon? I'll have to [STRIKE]up [/STRIKE]start my training and you wouldn't have to keep up with me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

'5 and a bit miles'
'lazy'

Should these two be co-existing in the same sentence?

Well all you needed was vanilla extract, double cream, semi skimmed and sugar El and it was fab, even DS said so:D
