Think i'm becoming obsessed

[suel18]

I don't want to book a holiday as it might interfere with my training plan!!

[Hidden]

haha that is addicted

[hilbean Graduate]

Haha Maybe you still can take a holiday but you'll have to check out the running routes first

[suel18 Graduate in reply to hilbean]

or make sure there a gym with a treadmill there. Although I hate those things.

[hilbean Graduate in reply to suel18]

Never been on one so I can't comment But I'm sure you will have just as much fun with your training. Who needs holidays anyway

[Irishprincess Graduate]

Oh I know that feeling well....... Yes you are obsessed!

[suel18 Graduate in reply to Irishprincess]

bad isn't it.. not! saw on an earlier post that you're in the south west, Me too, weymouth

[no-excuse Graduate]

Hahaha! I know how you feel. I booked one last year that had a gym just in case it was too hot for me to run. I don't like it as much at the gym but it served it's purpose! Can't stop for anything can we!!! X

I went on holiday for 2 weeks last summer just after making it to W7R1. I took all my running gear and ran .... 0 times! I started back at W5 when I got home. The intention was there, but I can take rain anywhere in the world with me and it lashed down in Italy! Plus the Aperol Spritz was going down quite nicely ...

[suel18 Graduate in reply to useitorloseit]

Alcohol is good...... I think

[Tomas Graduate]

That's the spirit! Having said that, an easy week is always good for any training plan, just to give the body a bit of extra time to recover, so maybe you can squeeze in a wee holiday after all?

[suel18 Graduate in reply to Tomas]

Very true Tomas

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

Holidays are the best ...............time to run somewhere new. Pack your running gear first and you can't go wrong.

[suel18 Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

Thanks Ian yes new places can lead to new motivation

[suel18 Graduate in reply to IannodaTruffe]

I get a bit nervous running somewhere in case I get lost. I tend to run round the block about 100 times

[misswobble Graduate]

Yep, you're hooked! No doubt about it.

You could take your running shoes wherever you go though

[Rob_and_his_westie Graduate]

Go ahead, take that holiday. You deserve it.

.....just take your running kit with you.....

[suel18 Graduate in reply to Rob_and_his_westie]

And the dog Rob westie called Lola x

[Rob_and_his_westie Graduate in reply to suel18]

I'm sure Bailey (my Westie) would love to meet her!

[ancientrunner Graduate]

You've been got!!

[Miles_Yonder Graduate]

Oh yes Sue, that's a sign you're addicted. Mine last year got right in the bloody way of my training; I'm not having a holiday this year for the same reason and next year's will revolve around a race abroad!

[Miles_Yonder Graduate]

I did that in my hotel room in December: window, to door, window to door, window to door, and repeat over and over and over again

[suel18 Graduate in reply to Miles_Yonder]

Omg don't think I'm that hooked!

[Miles_Yonder Graduate]

I was on the ground floor when I did it! we're a unique breed, us runners, aren't we?! I'm definitely not doing a holiday this year as it'd just get in the way of my challenge. If I can't get into the London Marathon next year, I hope to do the French Riviera Marathon, which means it would be a running holiday!

[suel18 Graduate in reply to Miles_Yonder]

Ooh now that sounds like a plan Miles. Although I would stop at running from the window to the door ?

[suel18 Graduate]

I'd have to. I'd go stir crazy not running
