Still trying to run on 1.5 legs. Today’s run Peel Parkrun in 28:26. Really pleased with that despite calf pain from 3km AGAIN! Ggggrrrrrr

Nice one Staffs. Spy any rags on there today? :-)This morning's Isabel Trail Parkrun completed in 29:31. Still too warm for me, but glad to be back to sub-30 minutes.

Haha yeah. Got chatting to two of them walking back to the car after today’s run. They’re almost at the ‘don’t care anymore’ phase now but I still got the Grimsby mention in! :-)No. Conspicuous by their absence, funnily enough!
Travelled up to Fleetwood parkrun this morning Ran up and down the coast. Slight breeze but good to run in. Time was 30:04.
Looked at the Garmin data and for a very short period my fastest speed was 10.1mph. Think there must have been a glitch on my watch!

One week until the Great North Run! Anyone else here doing it? I did another section of Hadrian's Wall in my training (I love it!) and have documented it here:

After completing the Couch to 5k a few weeks ago I am going to do my first park run tomorrow. I’ve been hoping to run sub 30 minutes, went for a run yesterday and managed 29:29. Three months ago I could barely run for 90 seconds!
Like your namesake, who was always the last to finish the run at training when I used to go and watch in Wythenshawe Park, back in the 60s.After completing the Couch to 5k a few weeks ago I am going to do my first park run tomorrow.

Altrincham 10k Sunday, hoping for sub 45, slightly dodgy knee but going for it regardless.
Anyone else doing it?

Fantastic mate, hope you do it but to be honest imo don't get too hungry up in the time tomorrowAfter completing the Couch to 5k a few weeks ago I am going to do my first park run tomorrow.

Bit gutted. There's a new parkrun in Coleraine Northern Ireland (Christie park) about 2 minutes walk from my sister's house where I stay when I'm home. I want that to be my 25th milestone and run it as a guest for first time. I can do that but had hoped I'd be able to have 25 milestone t shirt for it.
Another 64 miles done in August! Still going and improving. Although ran in Fleetwood saturday thinking nice and flat, the sea breeze destroyed me didnt have a drink so struggled and stopped at 8. Happy with the battle though! First 10k done in under an hour aswel this week first time in a long while. Coming up to 6 months without any alcohol this Monday

Tried to start running to help support my wife who’s doing the London marathon next year.
Feel like I’m working up the distances and my cardio but my knees are just in pieces. I’ve got crunching sounds when I go up stairs, pain if I’m walking down stairs. Pain if I’m sat in a chair too long. I’ve tried to build in some strength training but doing squats etc is just more pain.
Could do with shifting some weight which won’t be helping I’m sure but perhaps it’s something under the surface.
I don’t know if I need to just go to a physio or it’s something worse.
