Just a quick message to say Merry Christmas and THANK YOU to everyone for all there support and advice to not only me but everyone else this year.

I have gone from a non runner to a 5K (sometimes) runner and hopefully beyond in 2017.

I for one will enjoy Christmas and then get back to the important task of running that excess off!!

Thanks again

Chris

Merry Christmas 🎅🎄🎁

I have a LOT of running to do to get rid of this excess already- been slacking! But I have a January virtual 5k and a brace of 10k's booked so am allowing myself a lapse and will be back on it in the New Year.

Good to see you're still out there :)

JT24 - Sorry been away from the boards a bit recently what is a Virtual 5K?

Yes just checked and i haven't ran for 2 weeks which isnt like me so will be correcting that in the new year.

Virtual race- there are a few companies who you can pay an entry for a race, receive either/or a number/t-shirt/ medal but you can run the race distance where and when you want to, unlike having to turn up at an organised event :)

I've used them a few times this year to give me a bit more of a purpose to get out there- and to reward my first 10k efforts :)

Happy Christmas, Chris. From another 2016 graduate still slightly perplexed at the realisation that I'm actually building running into my Christmas plans.

Hi JaySeeSkinny - Yes I agree running does now appear in my Christmas plans,didn't think I would be thinking that 12 months ago!
