Anyway all back on track now! ;-) quick up date on my running journey. Well on the way to 10k, its still hard work yet i hit it regularly, but not every time. I've down loaded the audio fuel mid effort long run. (Yes its mid effort 155 to 165 BPM) Its a two hour long run that builds up over ten weeks. And I'm loving it! Recommended. After getting comfortable with c25k+.

Im Eternally greatfull to NHS choices for this great set of pod cast. And most of all, all you guys fro the help advise & surport along this on going life changing journey from. Thank you. Happy running every one!!

Thanks, & good to here from your self as well. :-)

Yeah it is a nice run that, always makes me feel like I'm in northern France for some reason? Nice little bit of escapism I guess! Haha & why not. How's your running life going?

Not bad. Did my first park run on Saturday and training for 10K! Am just adding half a kilometer every week with a speed or shorter session and a 5K. Haven't booked an event yet but am looking! Taking it very slowly because I'm not as young as you!

Congratulations on your park run, good luck for you 10k training sounds like your doing this the way I am nice and easy. That's definitely the key. :-) not done any events my self, not sure I fancy it to be honest! Never say never though. ;-)

To tell the truth I ernjoy the solitude, time to think and stuff!

Any way Enjoy your running & chat soon :-)
