Purplemaniacs Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 OH and I were feeling chuffed as we did a 5 or 6 mile walk at Fineshade Woods yesterday and a slightly different route again today. Well done to all those who have been running, don't do running ANH I hope your blisters improve soon, watching sounds ideal to me CW when you think of it as 20 miles a week that doesnt sound too bad Good luck to all who are running.

jlo Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I won't be running this year. I had a go on a treadmill on Saturday afternoon and my back was agony for most of New Year's Eve as a result. Good Luck to all of you though. One of my son's FB friends posted on her status yesterday: "Dear Running People. Go back home, have a bacon butty and some paracetemol like normal people." which I quite liked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 I like that . Sorry to hear about your back . No point in risking injury, I think you're being very wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Oh dear, I've been not running for too long & now have a bad dose of "I can't do it any more" which coupled with our currently foul weather has meant that the only exercise I've had & can face has been a few lengths of the pool. I've never had so long off before & I've got to the stage where if I don't go out soon I probably won't.................... Ahhhhhhhh hate feeling like this.

sparkysmum Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I've been out Despite the storm, I thought I really had to go. Dragged OH and the hounds with me and had a really fun time. Went along a disused railway, now a cycle track so that old Sparky could go at his own pace. I think we managed about 10 minutes before we had to stop. So that's emmmmmmm about another 2 hours to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Well done . The first step is the hardest . I didn't venture out although I'd have had a great average speed with gusts of 102mph blowing me along (although knowing my luck they'd have been in my face ).

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 It's only taken me a month to get out again (I did have a horrible cold & cough for almost 2 weeks in my defence!) but I managed a 3 mile run this morning . Very slow but actually quite enjoyed it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Yay, Vicki, that is good news. Simon & I are managing to go out once a week only & taking the dogs too. Still "doing" the EHM tho' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
