"I was a daily runner but haven’t had the motivation over the last year, not sure why. I should try getting back into it. I really should." I think daily is a definite way to lose motivation. I go out three or four times a week and that is plenty enough for me. | |||

It can hurt, depends how you fall. I can't yet right myself without unstrapping and falling out because I don't have an ultra lightweight chair. Mine is a fucking chariot I've fallen over with my day chair - didn't hurt, just looked like a tit | |||

Easiest way is to run with someone slower than you. Ideally you'd have a mix of sessions, one a week doing speed or strength (hills) will see a significant change in your fitness, one at mid pace (probably what you're doing now) a long run at easy pace. | |||

As above, try to mix it up - some speedwork, some hills and some endurance - and you will soon see some pacing improvements. | |||

I know it's hard but try not to worry what other runners are doing, they may be doing a different distance/session to you. Some days I'm doing a long or slow run and get overtaken, others I'm working speed and going past other runners, I never think badly of the pace others are doing - though when I'm near the end of a long run and struggling I may think nasty thoughts about the fresh faced sparkly runner skipping past on what is probably their first mile

Looking at a sprint duathlon to start so a 5km run, 22km cycle, 5km run. First time I’ve said that in any public space so can’t go back on it now. | |||

The best bit of advice anyone (my friend Eric) ever gave to me was “it’s all about time in your feet. Don’t worry about speed. Just do whatever you do, for a bit longer”. 30 enjoyable Minutes at 6min/Km is better than hating doing 20 terrible minutes for the sake of a few seconds improvement. Unless, of course, your aim is speed. Then just run faster lol. | |||
