    Afternoon all :hello: Back in the house exactly 4 hours after I left having done the planned 15 miles (with a couple of stops to admire the view, ended up right on the edge of city looking out into the countryside, lovely :) ). Don't feel anything like as tired as I have done on previous long walks... and kind of glad the Moonwalk starts at midnight though, just because it means it shouldn't be as hot as today, my feet got pretty swollen.. and my hands a bit as well! :confused:

    Anyway, it was good! :)


    Well done you Red, you will be absolutely fine on your moonwalk and the lower heat of the night will certainly help.

    Have you been out today???
    Im trying to decide whether to run or not tomorrow. I still have horrendous sinusitus and been ill for over a week and a half. Have continued to run all this time and now thinking its not been a good idea. Will see how I feel in the morning I think

    Went out for a run today... 1.62 miles walking/jogging but we didn't do as well today. But it has been nearly a week since we went last and it was so muggy :eek:

    Nice one IA, it is a bit hard going in this weather isn't it - yick!

    Sally, see how you feel but don't push yourself if you don't feel up to it. Maybe do a more gentle walk/ jog if you feel like you need to get out ?

    I've just been looking through the Runners World website at events to see what I can do in future months - this looks, er, different?! :confused:http://www.urbanathlon.co.uk/

    It certainly does look different! Feeling ok at the moment and sinus is normally better in the afternoon so going to go later on today for my run. Really need to get some new trainers but think it will have to wait ntil next month

    Sarah well done on your run, sure you will be fine tomorrow and back to the distance you were doing last week
