You are soooooo brave! I've only just graduated from c25k, so to me the M word is a terrifying, impossible thing. Good luck, and keep posting your progress. 🏃🏃🏃

None. Just slowly building up.

Hey, well done! I bet that's gonna be quite a few laps around Greenwich park, just to get into the groove!

I've decided to run 10K like a man possessed until I'm fully in the zone and if still feeling this way, sometimes next year, I will start putting that extra bit and push myself into HM.

And, you are right. It's only a half ;) One day you may be on that start line near Cutty Sark going for the real big deal, you never know. Some of my mates did and, I must admit, I am sooo behind them in every stage at the moment but some day? You just never know ;)

You've got 4 months, just take it easy, build it up, and you'll get there. I'm seeing a physio and will ask her to check me out and, once she stops laughing, let me know if I'm the right material for HM.

My past injuries made me triple careful although I run 10K like a nervously chirpy gazelle.

Not what you're looking for?
