I’m soooo addicted to running

Well, here I am after starting g C25k end of April, like Forrest Gump I’m running, running and running. Last night I did 6.10miles only to discover when I got home and converted it to kilometres I was only 140 something metres from 10k, aggghhh so cross that my Garmin was in miles and not kilometres, see how silly I am now about distance. Go back to April and I was pleased if I ran for 60 seconds. Ran for over an hour last night. My friends say I’m addicted. I say I love it. Is anyone else out there like me?

Me too lol, can't believe the change in me over the last few months

Completely. Used to hate the thought of exercise. Now can’t imagine being unable to run three times a week.

Me neither.

It’s ‘Orrible I can tell you, Jay!!! I can’t wait to get back to it. I am marking it off on the calendar and counting the days

😔

Take care y’hear! Don’t overdo things. Your running legs are a work in progress it takes 18 - 24 months to build them. Go, steady and increase gradually and carefully. Cross training is important as are your non-run days 💪

It’s such bloomin fun though. We have had more opportunity to go out and play this summer than we’ve had for ages. Forecast looks good further down the line too 💪👍😃🏃‍♀️

Thanks I will take heed, it’s great weather and got a suntan too, can’t be bad.
