That pic shows totally the attraction of trail running 👍

[roseabi in reply to Hidden]

Agreed! It's lovely 😍😍😍

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

I am so lucky to live by these amazing woods.... I really love it....

[Hidden in reply to ju-ju-]

I'm blessed with soooooooo many miles of slightly flat towpaths 🤭 but the hills around me are near verticle 😬 but saying that I did find myself perusing the trail shoes today whilst with the teen-agers in Chester.............

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

flat towpaths sound lovely. My trails are really hilly but I love the challenge of it

[Rigpig]

Ready for week 5, Week 4 was great with no issues. I got several new PB's over the course of the week and my 30 minute benchmark run has really improved both in distance and pace

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Rigpig]

you are doing so well.... you are on fire!!

[Drumandbass123 Graduate10]

Thanks ju ju x so loving the plan , week four done yesterday x starting 5 tomorrow 🙌🏻💓

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Drumandbass123]

I am so pleased... fantastic well done you

[Over62]

Lovely photo, just completed my 4K in lovely weather along a pretty canal tow path, must take a photo this week!

Great morning for the run after all the poor weather.

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Over62]

Yes you must, it sounds lovely. And well done

[Runnf Graduate10]

Haven't run for 2 weeks due to a bad cold, but hoping to be better this week - surely?!?

Then I'm wary of overdoing it (my energy levels have been v low & easily depleted this year) so think I'll have a week of either short gentle runs or stick to the plan but with run-walk intervals.

My last long run was at 44 mins 2 weeks ago, so 50 isn't out of the question if I manage to recover, but might drop back a week instead to be on the safe side. Who knows - I just want to get back to it, don't care about times right now! My poor dusty trainers

Happy running, all!

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Runnf]

That sounds sensible, viruses are so draining and it takes the body a while to recover. Take care of you and good plan to drop back and not put yourself under too much pressure

[Runnf Graduate10 in reply to ju-ju-]

Thanks Ju-ju X

[ktsok]

I have been held up by a cold and torrential downpours. Got out today for the start of week 3 after a 2 week break...

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to ktsok]

Well done, I hope it went ok and you are feeling better?

[ktsok in reply to ju-ju-]

Yes thank JuJu, have just completed week 3 😊

[Jollyjule]

I started with 50 minutes today and it went just fine 😃. Last week, after a cold, I repeated Week 3.

I love doing intervalls for the short run. Thanks for the suggestion ju-ju.

A great week to everyone!

[ju-ju- Graduate10 in reply to Jollyjule]

Superb, well done. Intervals are quite fun aren’t they ?
