Ooh Woodland Girl - what's happening to you?! Sneaking those short runs in - good going chick! You have every chance to catch at least me now, cos while the good news is I did my first 3 miles in 30 mins and it felt absolutely AWESOME - I felt like a real runner and all that jazz the BAD news is that as soon as I stopped I realised I had torn a calf muscle - a PROPER injury - so I am going to be laid off for WEEKS!!! Aaargh!!! Still loved that run though - even if I did overdo it (was only supposed to be running 20 minutes on C25K W5 - that'll teach me!).....

I shall lurk on here and [STRIKE]heckle[/STRIKE] I mean encourage everyone till I am better!
 
Really need to get some more off that total - hoping tonight will be the first of many...

Hope its not too serious Sunshine Runner - are you seeing a doctor or anyone about it?

I've felt a slight twinge the last couple of runs, had my trainers for just over a year now, so I'm wondering if maybe some of the support is wearing down - I overpronate, and found to my cost last year that the wrong type of support in my trainers can lead to some severe pain.

Might have to take a trip to the running shop and get them to have a look at my running shoes/gait and assess if they are okay or not (and hope they are honest enough to not just try and flog me a new pair of trainers anyway!)

Still bloomin windy out there, why is that that whether I'm walking running or cycling, no matter which direction I'm heading in the wind always seems to be against me!
 
Sunshine, so sorry about your leg and I hope you get well soon. Ouch

Yes, heckle away!

Mandy, when you get there I would like Baileys and ice cubes please ;-)
 
Mandy, as soon as I'm better I'm getting a pukka gait analysis done. With all my aches and pains and nonsense I've just had enough. I want to run, dammit!! Leg doesn't actually feel that bad today but then I'm spraying it with icy chemicals every couple of hours and eating ibuprofens like sweeties....

Mine's a double voddy, lime & soda! xx
 
I walked one and ran one today!

Good! But please start off carefully!
I have been taking a leaf out of your book though and doing parts of my run as fast as I can! Only for about 20 seconds if that, but it makes me giggle as I am soooo slow !!
 
Hey girls all going well I see. I can almost smell that large vodka and tonic that mand is getting in for me. :)

Bairn is staying at my sisters this evening, so I'm hoping to get up early before commute (5am!) and have a quick run then. I'll have a snooze on the train afterwards then lol xx

Out straight from work on a leaving do tonight, so loaded hubby up with my lunch, work clothes etc to take in the car so that I could run to work this morning, popping into polling station on the way
 
Mandy - just slow down! Take a few days off - you deserve it ;)

I have begun my rehab programme with weights and the cross trainer but shall nobly NOT be counting that mileage....

xx
 
Finally completed week 4.
Now I need some advice. Given I completed week 4 over 19 days (on the C25K), do you think I should do another one or two days at week 4, or go straight into week 5? Before today's run I was thinking another couple of week 4 runs. However, I really enjoyed it today and found the 5 min runs easier than the 3 min ones, and feel really up for week 5.

I guess I know the answer already, but was just interested in your thoughts/experiences.

BTW my calf is still a little sore. So am gonna do plenty of stretches before I jump in the shower.

Good to be back :)

Well done Pinkie! I suggest you carry on, do week 5.1 if you can't complete that, then have a days rest and do that one again. You might just find you can do it first time :)
 
Well I wont be running today - I'm off camping tonight after work.

But I have packed my running gear - my friends usually dont get up for ages when we go away, but since I've been getting healthier over the last year, I find I cant sleep in late these days, so might try going out for a run before everyone gets up.

Or I may just get horrendously drunk and have a massive hangover in the morning and stay in bed!
 
Week 5, day 1 complete. God this is addictive! :)
