Are you still talking about running?

Lol!

Hell yeh. Totally addicted. Although you really have to battle through the tough times with Running.

Got into it few years ago

I always wear Aosis trainers
Never joined a running club.

I now book one race a month. Either a 10k or a half Marathon and I try and do the parkrun every Saturday.

Best advice and most obvious is to just pace yourself at the start - don’t worry about people running past or trying to catch up others. Focus on yourself.

My best results.

5k - 25:03
10 - 51:20
Half - 1:53
Full - 4:53

First park run. Waiting for the official time but roughly 27 mins.

Just this second come through. 35.24 for me but it took me 25 seconds to get across the start line so 35 mins. Ok with that.

It’s not that much about the time for me just keeping my weight under control. Off for a swim later so trying. Someone at the run said I have lost weight so that will do me!

Worsley park run tommorow- trying so hard for sub 30! We will see.

We’re you wearing UA shorts and blue wrist band?
Was looking out for a Boris lookalike but didn’t fancy shouting who the fucks @worsleyweb out!!
