The Administrators and this amazing forum have always maintained that the hardest bit is getting out the door, so I am off.
Oh yes surprised myself alright.🙈😂
First run for 4 weeks.I am back in the 9-10 mins/ km band.Best ever 5k just in the 7-8 mins/ km band.
So I am sitting about wk4/wk5 in C25k.
Going to build up little and often to 3k and 5k and by keeping in the 8-9 min/ km band.I can always return to the tried and tested method if needs dictate.
Thank you all in this magnificent forum for who and what you are.

Shapely pair of pins you have there, young laddie!
Back on duty indeed - though managed have managed a 6k and an intervals session this week and am hoping to complete a gentle long run tomorrow morning.
Think it will be difficult to motivate myself once the evening runs are in the dark.
This is indeed a wonderful forum, love reading everyone’s stories, although I’m always 12 hours behind the news, when you mentioned Invercargill I giggled and thought of Mick Jagger who said on the Stones tour of 1966 that Invercargill was the a—ehole of the world. Most unkind, possibly true then though. Invercargill a long way from your home?
Mick Jagger is a fool.Probably never done a real days work in his life.Can only talk a good game.But as a singing artist well let’s be kind.
What’s not to like about South Island, all of it.
I am a smelter boy from Kinlochleven. There is a book by Patrick McGill , Children of the dead end.
I am bias and view Invercargill differently.
Kinlochleven now has the largest indoor ice climb in the world, wonder if MJ has tried that or any of the many Munro’s in the West Highlands let alone the 3000 meter plus mountains in NZ.
I’ve always said Tbae that this forum is an education, thank you. The book you mention and the author more especially interest me. I have recently started my family tree and discovered that I have McGills from Donegal who became Magills when they emigrated to New Zealand who married more of my ancestors from Tyrone. Kinlochleven looks a beautiful place PS (MJ’s legs might be all right for prancing on stage, but they aint runners legs eh?) 🎸
The forum, as we all know, is fantastic...better than any social media in the WORLD!! I’m on here more than any other...my badge is still being polished, fingers crossed that in the next few days I will be wearing it with pride....at long last!! Phew...it’s like waiting for a baby to be born!!! Hahaha x
Parkrun was great thanks . Garmin said I did a PB but parkrun stats didn’t, but it did take a long time for me to get to the start line today. It doesn’t worry me as I just like being there.
We did run as well as sort tokens today so got two ticks in 1 day.
Going to prune and remove all unattractive shrubs , prepare all
the beds for winter and replanting next year.
I am so pleased to be back on here and running.
Thank you for your magic HM report and sorry for stuff.
You are amazingly talented person and runner and you are going to give so much to this motivational magic forum and have given already, young woman of steel.
Take good care of you, going to enjoy following your journey.
Hi Tbae, it was great to see that you are back running again on Strava today. Very pleasing that you are surprised at your fitness level too, and nice to see you!
Just spotted your post, Tbae ! (I seem to have stopped getting any email notifications, so must have messed up my settings...🙁) Looking good! Glad you’re back out there! 😃🏃♂️❤️
