So..... running - Page 94

Pheebs · 27-05-2011, 09:43

Zomg. I am super super slow at running at the moment. Really really driving me nuts... I just can't seem to keep a steady pace. I'm doing about 3.3k in 24minutes... I used to do this in sub 20minutes easily.

Bah. And annoyingly in my run this morning I developed super ear ache as it's blowing a gale. Boo.

This is why I hate running, I feel super poop on bad days even though it's good that I went out for a run.

Yeah don't beat yourself up about it Clare - at least YOU WENT that is the good thing.

As you know you have to build up stamina and once you fall off the wagon you have to start all over again.

REALLY don't want to fall off!

I think the wagon ran me over as I toppled off it

New work place means having to pay for parking daily. I can park in the towns spangly shiney all singing all dancing gym for £2 per day which'll be £36pm. Gym membership is £54pm....inc parking. Would be rude not to really wouldn't it? I can't run on roads at the moment as my achilles will explode, have to build up to it on treadmills, plus I can do spinning again! Well, not yet, unless they have inbuilt oxygen and defibs.

Am excited! Only 2.5 stone to shift!

Pebs I think I was too run over and then reversed over! Boo!

Yay to gym membership! Go go go! Canny afford things like that me

Buuut! I have the road to beat!

I've realised what's not helping me... lack of music. I've not been able to find my head phones so have been running without my ipod. Music allllllways helps me run. Must find headphones.

4th 10 miler in the last month (and one 13.1 in sub-2), hit a new PB for 10.1 miles of 1:24:40 with the last mile being 7:12, and did a 5:25 speed for the last .10. That was with a light backpack (aka clothes but not shoes) following my normal 3 mile walk into work this morning.

Still not signed up for the HM, waiting on a friend but will get there! Am booked in for a sports massage tomorrow though, hence the non-normal Tuesday run as don't figure Thursday would be a good plan and camping Friday/Saturday.

What should I wear? It's only a mile so was planning on walking, is that wise?

BBx · 02-06-2011, 08:25

5km this MORNING!

27mins46sec no music.

AND got into work on time... I am a) not going to be able to move and b) fall asleep at my desk, today.

Going to start collating my times now I think

This thread has gone from making me want to run to making me want to cry

Don't worry MB you'll be back to it soon I'm sure - try not to get too down in the dumps about it

Managed for the first time (with Pheebs) to complete the full 30 mins of walk/run today. Definitely helps having someone to do it with.

You'll be back Matt I'm sure.
