Running again...
Morning all,
I’m feeling a bit happy today as I’ve just done my first run in 8 weeks and it didn’t feel too bad (I was beginning to feel a bit of a fraud, partaking on a runners forum but not actually running!). The sun was rising over the lake, and everything felt good. Breathing a bit hard at the end of the 30mins run but that’s only to be expected. Building up slowly now over the two months to the ‘Reindeer Run’! Thought I’d try the 4 times a week schedule in this months RW.
Just thought I’d share all that…!

Just thought i'd share that!
I think a lot of us can relate to how you were feeling and how great you must feel now. Excellent !
I used to run down to the Mumbles from Langland Bay when visiting Swansea on business in the eighties - pleasant early morning jog as the sun came up.
Can I call you an honorary Welsh git now that you've decamped to Taf land?
BTW Scotty, how did you get on at Loch Ness last Sunday?
It was totally brilliant. 3hrs 50mins. Don't agree with the idea of 20miles being the halfway point. My right leg was killing me for the last 4 miles though but no problems with breathing or energy.
Unfortunately didn't meet Diasy Duke or Nessie. Met Ellie, Super Ted and Kg. There's a thread called Loch Ness Congratulations about 5 pages into the Events Forum where a lot of us have praised the organisation, goody bag, food, entertainment etc.
Definately want to do more marathons.....well it's easier for us skinny blokes.
Cheers
BTW are you doing Barns Green Half on 27th Oct. Just sent my cheque off yesterday.
You can call me a git if you like Snoop - I've no objection to that!
Yes, I am in the Gower and yes, all along the bay in that area is a very pleasant run. I've done that a few times previously.
The lake I was running around today is in the middle of an industrial estate so it's not quite as grand as it sounds - still nice though!!
Good time Scotty! Well done!
Put yourself down for London now - only a fortnight to go before entries close.
I'm going to take a rest the weekend of 27th - danger of 'overracing' otherwise.
I visit the Gower fairly regularlyn and run on Rhossilli Beach - fantastic experience.
I'm intending making the Reindeer myself.
So is benz- how about a training run before that?
Be good to see everyone at the Reindeer.
(Like the hat!)
