The Running/Keeping Fit Thread

Are you doing the Sydney running festival ? That's the half I'm doing

I wish! I'm in the UK and will be huffing and puffing my way round the distinctly less glamorous location of Bristol city centre.

For 500g that's a decent price.

Did my first jog/walk in well over a month today, was out for 30 minutes but really it was more of a ramble.

Really had to push myself to do it, felt so tired and light headed before going on the run. Didn't enjoy it at all but I'm going to try and get out again tomorrow if the weather is ok.

Going to be really disappointed if I can't do this half marathon as I've been looking forward to it all year, can't believe I picked up this ****ing injury.

It's really ****ed me up both physically and mentally.

How were your tendons? If they were OK, just keep plodding on and your head will soon be in a better space as you start to make incremental improvements on your runs.

I remember a few months ago when you felt a little under the weather and lethargic - some of the posters on here encouraged you to get out and run regardless and if I recall you said you felt better for it.

Nice

My 30s are still going strong, think I'll upgrade to 31s towards the end of the year. Really comfy shoes.

[Carras_Shin_Pads]

think we've time to bank 400 between the two of us? 500 might be too much of a push now

I reckon we could! I've got an ultra next Saturday which is around 50k so need to squeeze a few in the week to get mine near 200km - be my most in a long time!

Good work,

Gutted my Ultra has been cancelled so i dont think i'll be joining the 200k club!

Really didn't get on with my pegasus, found them really cumbersome! Can't recommend the Nimbus high enough though

Tendon's felt ok you know mate.

Don't really feel like a run today, have actually just woken up after a small snooze on the couch.

I did feel better after receiving some encouragement off here. Will go for another run tomorrow. I've not given up all hope of doing the run in November but it's not looking likely sadly.

Ah that sucks mate. Next month! I've a couple of halfies in September but after that it's full steam ahead for marathon training 18- 20 milers every Sunday are going to be mega.

Didn't mind the Nimbus but I must do some weird toe curling when I run because I always rip through the fabric on the top of Asics trainers at about the 200 mile mark so can't justify the expense for something that I only get 2 month from. Pegs seem to last me ages. Thinking about trying hokos out for my next pair though. They look awesome
