Cove_Sheep Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Meant to be anyway. Stewart is meant to be too. But he thinks he has Ebola. FE & Lamia are also on the entry list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armchair Bob Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Good on you Cove. I thought I'd do a 5k a day over the festives. However on the second day out I pulled my groin again Done a bunch of stretches but not much else. Some river walking, Ben Lomond, and yesterday a circumnavigation of Holy Island near Berwick.

Parklife Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 When I was unfit I'd always get injured. Dodgy groins, hammys, calves, the lot. Now I'm fit as feck and never get anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
in5omniac Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Got a pesky cold at the mo, which I'm using as my excuse for not running today, along with the skitey roads. Next run will be New Years Day Parkrun, I'll probably chuck some more miles in after it as well - got a half marathon two weeks Sunday and need to keep the long runs going.

Lamia Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Well that is my yearly total at 1008 miles. Starting off the new year with two park runs on 1st, Lumphanan 10k on 2nd and park run on 3rd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Well that is my yearly total at 1008 miles. Starting off the new year with two park runs on 1st, Lumphanan 10k on 2nd and park run on 3rd. Nice one. I'm at 825miles - started the year aiming for a 1000, but June/July the best months buggered me with the World Cup and holidays. Will do one tomorrow hoping for maybe 10 miles - did 7.3 on Monday, 7.8 yesterday - both on the treadmill, but I get bored - need to download a few podcasts maybe to get over the line or head outside.

Pool Q Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 I need to do at least 6 miles today to hit 1000 for the year. I more or less took September and the first two weeks of October off as I fancied a break before my training schedule for the marathon next April started. Took me a few weeks to get back into it (it really does get harder as you get older) but OK now I think. I'm the tailrunner at Edinburgh parkrun this Saturday, anyone doing it please come over and say hello. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've certainly been fitter. Pulled my groin in August and it has never cleared up properly. Resting just seems to make me less fit rather than healing it.

Pool Q Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 There's that of course. Funnily enough, I was watching an STV News review of the year type thing the other night and there was a clip of you at one of the referendum result announcements, and it was pretty obvious from that what it meant to you.

McVinceSCT Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) 16kms in snowy woods today. Really great experience. More than 1800kms for 2014, which has been a great year for me (new PB in 10K and half-marathon).

Deedee Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Anyone else have a love/hate relationship with running? I planned getting doing the half marathon distance before the end of the year. Built up to 14km a couple of weeks ago. Today i managed 3km before having to stop! Apparently a bowl of soup and a sandwich an hour before running isn`t ideal preparation.

Dave78 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Just did my fastest 5K, in 33 mins 50 secs.Would leave you lads in my dust.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave78 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Having finished C25K, i can't decide if i want to stick with 5k's and get my slow time down, or move onto 10k. Have found this app which would help with training for a 10 - http://blog.bluefinapps.com/about-bridge-to-10k/What would you recommend?

I started using that but a wee bit into it just decided to push on to 10k and not worry about the time just to see if I could manage it and then kind of work backwards from there really.
