Ooh, just bit the bullet and signed up 😬. Still building back up to 10K but hopefully this will give me the incentive.

Looking forward to it actually πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Happy running all 😊

Congratulations on signing up for the London Vitality Virtual 10,000, there are many people on this forum, including myself who are going to run it, even some who are running for the second time, good luck.

Thank you so much. Good luck to you too. Nice to be joining everyone on an outing. I think (Hope) signing up was the hard bit - now I’ve posted it ....

Remember that you have to run with that number around your waist.

Thursday is physio day, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but to be honest I'm still not right ☹️

Oh that's a shame! But remember you've got 12 months to complete it so you'll get your bling in the end. Just a shame we can't do it together.

Thanks Fiona, I was really looking forward to running it virtually all together but hey ho that's the way this running lark goes.

It did feel a bit like a kick in the teeth when my running number arrived in the post. But I'm so glad I've got time to get sorted and will have it as a goal to aim for.

Are your having better luck this week getting out?

I did a 45 minute run the other day but yesterday, for no apparent reason, my back went out. So I've been in a bit of a sorry state today. Hopefully it will ease off tomorrow. What are we like? πŸ€• On the bright side, it didn't stop me from tottering down to the vaccine centre to get my 2nd dose!!!! Walk helped loosen me up a bit.

Hope your back sorts itself out x

Good luck! I did it last year - it was my first ever 10k and I loved it. I'm only recently running after a spell on the IC otherwise I would be with you as well.

Thanks. I am really looking forward to it. Sorry about your injury, hope you’re recovering well. πŸ€—

Great idea to get you back to 10k. I signed up for the Edinburgh one for the same reason. Good luck!
