I did 5k tonight :j :j

In 42 minutes


I wasn't planning on 5k, it just kinda happened. Now the evenings are lighter, I've started to run on grass- I don't think I like it, my body certainly doesn't

Will that change do we think? Will I get used to running on grass?

You will get used to it, yes.

Oh dear!

Ran 4k on Monday with club and then took a bit of a tumble. Predictably, I grazed my knee. I also injured my shoulder.

I ran yesterday to see how my knee was holding up. It's fine; but a bit achy.

Grrrr, I had a post all typed out and lost it :mad:

I am to say that I've not been out running properly since 4th April

I tried on the following Tuesday and really struggled to cobble together a simple mile

And now I've got a blimmin cold that is yucky and horrible so can't go out running until that's passed (from previous experience I know for me that it's best if I don't)

I was stupid enough to run on Saturday and this evening with a cold. I should be ok. Or at least I hope I will be.

Still recovering from running the "Great" Welsh Marathon on Sunday. Busted out a time of 04:20:03 and came 145th out of a field of 214 runners. Haven't really come down from the emotional high yet.

I went out for a short 2 miler today. Despite my cold, it felt good and the only problem I had was I had to blow my nose a few times :rotfl:

I was fine last night. I'm fine when I run; but when I'm not running, my nose is a problem.:( You may find that breathe right nasal strips help. I'm having to wear them at night in order to breathe for now.

Got in last night, sat down and was having some dinner. My dad then asks "did you fall over again tonight?":rotfl:Even I'm not that clumsy.

Thanks, I might try some of those nasal strips. I didnt think I could use them if my problem was just a simple cold
