Re: The running thread!
Just been out for my first run in my new trainers and to my delight they are bouncy, well at least until they've done a few miles with my fat ar5e bearing down on them.

Re: The running thread!
I've been a lardass today. Run due tomoz, 4 miles - am in taper mode.

Re: The running thread!
Was wondering if any of you guys say hi to or otherwise acknowledge other runners whilst out running.

Re: The running thread!
Usually too knackered to speak , normally hold a hand up and grimace and kinda grunt a bit, wow not attractive then ? ;)

Re: The running thread!
I wondered if there was some kind of protocol, like bikers nodding at each other.
|
Re: The running thread!
Depends on the numbers you pass. Out in the country, then yes a nod & grimace. Running round the Downs along with everybody else in the world, then no.
Bit like when do you stop & start nodding when approaching & leaving a bike meet ? |
Re: The running thread!
Yeah I normally just raise a hand and smile/grimace. Most joggers are so bored they welcome any form of interaction........I know I do.

Re: The running thread!
I reckon Cardiff must be especially unfriendly. I struggle to even make eye contact with other runners.
|
Re: The running thread!
Some runners in Shrewsbury nod. Mainly because I know quite a few of them! But others simply ignore everyone. Their loss!

Re: The running thread!
My other half ( BEV) decided a couple of weeks ago that she needed to get fit so we've started jogging, the route we are doing is 2 miles, at first she was needing to stop and walk at least twice but now we only stop once for about 100 yards in the middle, i am so impressed with her cos she is the worlds worst jogger but she is not goin to give up. She wears asics shoes which she finds really comfortable and supportive, i only wish i had a pair, mine are nike which are nowhere near as good. perhaps one day we'll be fit enough to run with Ed but it won't be for a while yet.
