wooww so impressed with these miles .. sadly my back let me down last week so brist walking swimming cycling is all i can do right now ! good luck hun can't be lond 6 weeks ??

Im planning on another long is run tomorrow morning, the weather should be nice and suuny too which is a bonus.
At the moment im avaeraging between 15 and 20 miles a week.
Cant wait to run 6 miles for Sport Relief on 21st. It should be great fun.

Rumour has it a run on Sunday morning might be on the cards. Will be the first run in weeks. Hopefully this will be the boost I need to actually take my running gear into work and do something at lunch time instead of nothing.

Get at it mate and enjoy. Take it easy and don't bugger your knee up!

Still no running for me...

My reason for starting running was my back and now I can't run, guess what?

My back is painful and so the vicious circle starts...I am going to see how my leg feels on Monday and if it is ok going to go round the block, if that is ok and I take it easy then perhaps I can start again.

A PB at London won't be on, but if I can run again I may plod it out. Fingers crossed!

Them I will never run another marathon again, the training takes too much time and effort. I never realised it did until I stopped training and see how much time I was spending with the kids.

Hopefully I will mend and it can be my third and final one.

Sarah, you should be really proud of yourself and just how far you have pushed your running since late 2009 - it is astonishing!

Well my long run went well yesterday. I completed my first half maraton distance.
Actually run 13.30 miles in 2 hours 28 mins, and that had 11 horrid hills in it too! So im quite chuffed with that time.

I was totaly shattered afterwards and shaking, i drank a liter of water as soon as i got in and had something to eat. Almost fell asleep in the bath after too lol.
