"I’ve just completed run 3 of this week, 25 minutes. Very relieved because even though I’ve done 25 minutes twice before I failed on Wednesday. The rain wasn’t a problem but I think the gusty winds were, it’s really difficult to keep a continuous pace up when the wind is going from 15mph to 30 mph and I’m trying to run into it. Time for rest now, and panting like a dog with his head out of a car window "Good work, running with the wind is never easy! | |||

Think of a scale of 1-5 where 1 is very easy and 5 is very hard (ooer) and try to keep at 2 or 3. Running at 4 is achievable for short periods, but if you get to 5 that’s the time to slow down a lot or stop. | |||

I've been last in races before, and you always get a massive amount of encouragement and support from the marshalls and volunteers, don't be discouraged because you think you're "Not good enough" these events ate very inclusive and are particularly aimed at beginners and slower runners. So no excuses, get out there and Run!
My goals - a series of races over the course of 2019. I've done them all before over a few years, but never all in the same year, so want to challenge myself to try and do that.
Won't be easy, but then where's the fun of a challenge that takes no effort! | |||

"I don't use a playlist to be honest I get caught up in the beat and start dancing rather than running and I can't dance lol" I'm the same, can't run to music as I can't control my pace, end up running too fast generally. The only album I've got on with when running is Urban Hymns, helped me zone out on a long run and helped the miles slip by | |||

"Must sign up this weekend Tomorrow night's hot date requires more walking to and from stations. We’ll be needing a full report on this date, Harry... As in strava stats of my walking, the average of the gig attendees, the quality of the gig or the fact I have 3 tickets and am taking 2 women lol. Ha ha ha. Good luck! " My walk to the butchers ladies which is my regular Saturday run is now that I have finally used Strava 0.7 miles Couldn't use Strava to station as was saving the battery (iphone4s and it is that bad even though I replaced battery within the last year).
I was during the second half the youngest person at the gig lol. We all loved it and at one point both ladies had their hand on my knees. Nearest I have got to a threesome this year
