    Donna was it the castle coombe 10k you are doing?

    Yep I am gonna sign up for it asap...end of November. Flat course as all on the race track...just a bit boring as nowt to see and you can't even see the finish line once you get so far round so you never know when it is gonna end! But I suppose the traffic free and the flatness is good!

  • Man I sooooo hope so! I would be happy with a sub 2 hour 15 time just to knock that last minute or so off!

    So pleased that this time I have decided to get right back out there as opposed to taking a couple of months off and then going back to square one! Nice to have the 10k to look forward to as a new goal!

    You WILL do 2 hours if you want to.

    With the right training there is no question about it...I have confidence in you! :T

    Okay I now have a runchum for the Race for Life (the lovely Tigtag), so no backing out now. :j

    If I try to run tomorrow, before my cough has gone, am I going to die? I sooooo want to do it, but I think if I'm honest, I'm probably still too ill. How annoying. :mad: :o
