great north run

[Donnalou86]

Hey! Good for you doing the Great north run! I'm doing a 10k in july, and recommend a book called Running made Easy. As far as running when you are in abstinence is concerned, it's probably not a great idea if you haven't run before. I cycled during abstinence, but had cycled before so it was ok.

Kate is a personal trainer and a CDC, so if you were to PM her, she may be able to give you better advice than me (I hope she doesn't mind me suggesting that you do this, I'm sure she won't!).

Thanks for the advice Dom1979 will see if I can find her on here. Would really like to start training though and am still ion abstinance, maybe if I just built it up very slowly??
