No running for me tonight - I have to go straight from work to do some more work and won't be home until about 11pm, so a good opportunity for a rest day, which is much needed because although my legs feel fine, my shoulder/neck is in agony today........I had a car accident and suffered a bit of whiplash last summer, and it is obviously not as healed as I thought it was :mad: So currently taking painkillers and rubbing in bio-freeze gel while I work out my next plan of action.

Morning all.
Did a 4.8mile run last night - 41:30.
Horrible weather. Also had been running in my glasses rather than contacts. Glasses just kept slipping down my nose in the wet and got a bit annoying, tried running without them but couldnt see a thing. LOL. This maybe added a minute or two to the time - any excuse.
Have a good day all.Total Debt now £22,525.07 Start Debt £32,732.36

Thats a decent effort, Hobsch.

Thanks ROD.
Yes, I really felt a bit low yesterday with things generally and really fancied doing a run. Was just going to do the one lap from my house but felt quite good so did 2. Felt so much better in myself afterwards too.Total Debt now £22,525.07 Start Debt £32,732.36

Morning all!
Wow Hobsch your times are really fast!
Did my 4 mile fartlek this morning - was hard work after my 10 miler on Sunday - but at least I did it today...
Looking forward to my running week this week - and even better got another day off today - so when I go back in on Weds it will be only a 3 day week
Hope you enjoy your runs everyone!0 -
I'm looking forward to Christmas as I'm gonna win £100 off my dh as we have challenge to see who can lose the closest to 2 stone by then. I think I have the easiest task as my weight is from pregnancy so a bit to go from thighs and belly, my goal is 10lb 10 which at 5ft 6ins is a good weight for me as I'm not naturally slim. Dh is 5ft 9 and all his weight is from his belly which isn't very big anyway but means he has to stop drinking! he runs all the time anyway so I don't think he has 2 stone to lose. Tonight I'm running to the pool (1 mile), doing a Pilates class, then running home!
I'm going to win, but wish me luck!0
