We walked this afternoon, my neighbour does like to walk 5k when she's on a day off so.....

The map made us laugh, and a bit faster than the last 5k we walked together, her fitness has improved loads

Good 5K walk for you Sue today with your neighbour, I imagine if that was a parkrun course there would be a lot of confusion 🤣

Good company and fitness.. a great combination.

I like those Instagram feeds where a runner’s route deliberately draws an image on a map. I often look at Strava/Garmin maps and think there’s an image of something in there, but I can’t work out what that one is 😊

It's just a jumble but it's 5k

You can have mine if you like, I thought after yesterday I was having a rest, I'd forgotten about the walk 😔🤣🤣🤣 but it's good to go

I was thinking about you, I'm sure you can walk 10k in about the same time

I am nowhere fit as I used to . Did a 7.16 km walk this morning time of 1hour 15 mins. But I am starting to feel ribs and back same as last time getting tighter, so back on the slow again. It feels like I said like a gorilla squeeze but treading careful. Mr D tonight decided to want to go another wee walk. Just 2.95 km 17500 steps for the day. That’s a lot for me so hope won’t suffer.

It's days since my TV was on, I'll have to check it out before I forget how to use the remote 🤣

Don’t know when I did a 10 km last and won’t be for a while.

I think a 10k run is easier than a 10k walk

At least it’s be easier on my joints. . If I was just without the osteoporosis I would be like you running .

Well done ✅ Supporting someone who needs to improve their fitness is a lovely thing to do and a nice way to recover from yesterdays long run and paddle!

my running buddy is 74 and she is amazing vs my 57yrs! We were doing 10k Training in January when I had my accident and broke my shoulder my 1st thought was I had to let her know I couldn’t run tonight and sorry to let her down! Before I rang for help! 😂

She really inspires me I hope to be doing 10ks and maybe a half marathon at her age!

SueAppleRun in reply to BGood

She sounds amazing, I hope I'm still running at 74, being 67 helps me feel fit and young inside

BGood in reply to SueAppleRun

When I think back and realised I couldn’t run more than a minute 5yrs ago and now I can run a whole 5k I never thought I could ever do that! It’s amazing what you can do when you put your mine to it!

A chat and a walk are always good! You have to love a route that just meanders around all over the place!

SueAppleRun in reply to Oldgirlruns

Yes. It used to be a golf course, now it has paths that anyone can run or wander along
