Is anyone on this forum doing an Advent run this Christmas? We are half way through, minimum 30 mins per day, walk, jog or run up to Christmas eve.

I am doing it but not limiting it to running. I'm doing some sort of activity everyday, be it running, walking, Zumba or yoga. It's been a great motivator for me as I work in retail and this is a v.busy/rubbish time of year, so it's made me make an effort to do something everyday!

Don't think I could do running everyday as much as I love/hate it I'd get bored and don't want to risk injury!

What a lovely idea.

Yes, I made the group aware it was happening a couple of weeks ago. Personally, II have been running / walking every day and I must say I'm in a bit of pain so have decided to join a yoga class to work on my flexibility! What about you? How are you getting on?

Running back to back days for this length of time is tough. I'm used to heavy exercise loads, but I've been putting in recovery days, when the body says enough, don't want to end up injured! I've also been mixing up my winter training, strength and conditioning, pilates, badminton. Keep your muscles guessing!
