Nervous

[Dunnja]

Is it just me that gets an upset tummy before they embark on a run they haven't tried before???

Tonight I am going to try 10k for the first time. Off out at 6.30 so will report on my return.

Slow and steady Dunnja, you can do this xx

Lol it's your system clearing out so you don't have to on that run !!

Hi Jules,

How did you get on? Did your tummy get the better of you??

Hope it went well x

[Dunnja Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I did it. So chuffed. Have posted seperate update.

I always seem to have an upset tummy before and straight after. Bizarre. I should be like a twig what with the running and upset tummies but I'm not!!!

Xxx

Lol! Twigs are overrated 😆

I never had 'bowel issues' before taking up running lol!! Even on a group run I have to run to the loo before I set off! I'm hoping it settles down, but from the conversations I've had with other runners, it seems to be a common 'problem'!! Nerves, excitement or a mixture of both for me I think x

[Dunnja Graduate in reply to beetie]

Glad it's not just me. I should be stick thin by now!!!

It's only on the longer runs for me but is bad beforehand and always a quick dash after too.

Think you are right re nerves excitement etc but am bit worried now I've signed up for some longer runs. I'll probably miss the start as I can't get off the loo!!!!!
