Follow Tanya on the maintenance forum, she's training for a half marathon. I was a runner but I'm afraid it was a long time ago:sigh: enjoy it, I used to love running and I'm devastated that I can never run again:cry:

Be warned, running is addictive! When you train really hard you can get a runner's high which is truly amazing

lou1 running is fantastic way to keep the weight off and tone. I would have run quite a bit before starting back to university over two years ago. Due to work load and children I have no time to run and I just put the weight on. As Sandra said it is very addictive and you get such a buzz. One piece of advice that was given to me when I started was make sure you wear good running shoes that are measured for your gate. Any good sports shop can measure this. It served me well. Good luck and enjoy. xx
