Running thread

Just been out for my first run in about a month. Only a short one - I'd say less than 2 miles - and had to stop a couple of times to get my breath back but it's a start (again).
Won't get up to racing again but completing a parkrun and shifting some weight will be an achievement. Will try for 4 runs a week and up the distance each time

I found this funny.



Look at the technique on that guy.

Feeling super satisfied right now. pigged out all day and had every intention of slobbing out in front of the TV tonight, decided i felt like shit so got up off my lazy ass and ran....breaking my 5k and 10k records in the process! (21.55 for the 5k and 45.17 for 10k)

Cheers! Sunday is usually my day off running but the wife was out so I thought why not, and I'm glad I did.

Ran the inaugural Carlisle Half Marathon this morning. Missed about 7 weeks of training due to injury so was really chuffed when I came in at 1:53. Legs are killing now!

I’m training for a half marathon but the Trainers I have are on the last legs.
Any recommendations for a robust set of running trainers for regular long distance runs and what shop/website to use? Cheers in advance

Get a gait anlaysis and get ones that suit you, not somebody else.
Run north west will be good - I've not been in since it changed from sweatshop but the people running it know their stuff.
