Please just go for a run, on your own, in some nearby countryside. Enjoy running for it's own sake.People have died because of people running ? Stop talking shite and get off your moral pedestal
It's fine - i;ve been called a lot worst than an Idiot in my time.Look, we were talking about BLUEMATT23's post about being banned from halves and marathons.
I'm sure everyone is willing to listen to your opinion but it would be wise to read the actual context of the discussion before commenting, especially if you're going to call someone an idiot. Otherwise, you end up looking like an, well...
If you think mass-participation events are OK, despite it being clear that they will spread the virus, then that's up to you I guess.
If you choose to equate the promotion of simple actions that will avoid thousands of deaths to being on a moral pedestal, then so be it.
I've got nothing against you mate.It's fine - i;ve been called a lot worst than an Idiot in my time.
That is a terrific place for it. Sandbanks is a pretty stunning location.Just done a 10k along the seafront running from Bournemouth up to Sandbanks (No I did not see Harry) and back.
Felt great going out, nice and bouncy on my feet and noted a decent breeze behind me. Turned round and that decent breeze was more like a gale and the last 4.5k was a real struggle being battered by the wind, sand being blown up in my face and struggling for breath.
Finished in 47:42, last 5 a bit slower but feeling as rough as toast now.
No problemI've got nothing against you mate.
Agreed mate, its a cracking thread.Just to bring a bit of positivity back to this thread. Lockdown has given me my running mojo back. It’s 7 years next month since I broke my hip (running btw).
I’ve not always been on this thread but in the main I find it inspiring with all types of runners/capabilities yet never seen anyone looking down on others.
This week it’s been freezing but I haven’t let it get in the way, where in the past I’d have used it as an excuse to stay in bed. Sun 10k; Tues 5k; today 4m; tomorrow 5m & 10m on Sunday. Some of the sunrises have been stunning - I love getting out in the dark and it being light by the time I get home. Can’t think of any better way of starting the day - well maybe one....

The morning runs are belting at the minute, been saying the same myself all week about the going out in the dark and home to sunrise, the colds only a problem if your not moving imho, perfect weather for it.

Aye thats the battle mate, just going through my nightly head battle of what time to set the clock for, 4.45 it is, seen someone say the other week that running is like drinking in reverse, you feel like shit before it and great after.Going to push myself to get up earlier and get myself out running. Everytime I do it I thoroughly enjoy it, especially at this time of year.

You fucking what mate!?Best thread on here as nobody ever starts on each other.
To keep on topic I've been back at running the last 4 weeks with 3 or 4 4ks a week. Not had a drink since we put United out of the cup and i'm 7 pounds lighter than I was at Christmas.
