Hi all, I am new to running and want to run with my buggy to make it easier to fit in as I work part time and spend most of the time looking after my little girl. I want to get more active and healthy for my daughter and myself.
Take your time, buy a decent running bra, cheap clothes and shoes thst you find comfortable irrespective of what anyone else things about them. Remember to have fun.
I am new to running and I would say the best thing to do is not get hung up on times, distances etc and just get out there and do a bit of running. The other stuff can come later. I have been running about 6-8 weeks and it is slowly starting to get easier to drag myself out for a run etc. In fact I would say that today for the first time since I started trying to run I actually enjoyed it. I got into my stride and just kept on. I intended on doing 4 miles and did 6.5 miles. My problem at the moment is I know I am going too fast for a beginner training eg 10k run today about 10:50 per mile. I just find it really difficult to go slower as the training plans I have looked at suggest. I guess any running is good running though. Do you have a sturdy buggy, my kids buggy would fall apart if I ran with it Enjoy!
Hi I am also new and so this is helpful. I have been getting really bad pain at the back of my ankles into my calves - any suggestions on this please. I have literally only just started so any advice gratefully received. Thanks
