Ecky - that's the attitude to have! Some days i feel i can run forever, other days i can barely run up the road lol! LK - I had a similar feeling, had a few niggles up to 6 miles, started to feel good, then just pain upon pain, it was the beautiful views that kept me going. Wise decision to do a de-tour and miss the rotti!…
Woohoo Ecky, for cracking 10 miles. Fantastic But am questioning your running buddys sanity! would never run on a hangover, it would be puke city! Obviously your friends made of sterner stuff then me! Went out with my uncle today. We ended up doing 14.2 miles (miscalculated our route) and i nearly cried i was so exhausted.…
Hello ladies! Nice to see some posting on here for a change Looks like the training is going well Ecky. I'm signed up for the EDF too, although I think I'll be staggering it as I'll have done Leics marathon 2 weeks before Glad you're running well too Cheetara. I bet it's a nice stress buster. Sounds like you need it at the…

Feel rough…
Morning all and welcome GP - you'll find lots of support here. Swimming for me on Saturday - first time in ages but managed 20 lengths. Am suffering now though from such sore arms! Am hoping to include that in the cross training that I'm doing for Brighton Mara so will hopefully build up from 20 slowly. 10 mile run…
Fantastic stuff, well done!! You'll be entering your first half marathon in no time Good news on finding a buddy for the Robin Hood Challenge 5k too. Very exciting Are you at Notts Uni? What are you studying? Yes, I always go betroot whenever I exercise. Even now when I can do a 20 miler, I'll still go betroot in the first…
*sneaks in slowly* Hello all. I haven't been on FANR is a VERY long time! I've been told to make an appearance or Ms Weeny and DP will sit on me. (It's been that long that I can't even remember what DP's username is! ) As some of you know I've cut down a bit on my running (less than 10 miles a week now) and am…
Right, now for a post about me Hello everyone. Sorry I've been a bit quiet. I was wallowing in self pity because I was ill all of last week and couldn't give my VLM plan the start I wanted. By Friday I was feeling better though, so I went and did a test 3.5 miles in the snow. It felt great to be out there again. I forgot…
