I've not been here for a bit. I don't know what the reason was - the doctor thought it may have been a virus - but I've had a loss of fitness, a general feeling of weakness and tiredness, and a lost mojo. This discouraged me so much that I couldn't bring myself to hang out here.
I'm gradually getting back into running though. And a totally brilliant side-effect has been that I've persuaded some friends to do Couch to 5k. They (we) have just finished Week 2. They're buzzing and I'm loving having their company.
Anyway, welcome to everyone who's joined this lovely forum since my last visit, and hello again to my old chums. It's great to be back.

Bless you AnneDroid . As you know, I felt the very same thing a month or two back. It's a funny thing, running. You go at it all guns blazing and make great achievements, miss a few weeks and things start to slide. Yet just as quickly you make the ground up again and you will be finding these weeks back on C25K easier I am sure. I found W1R1 murderous after 6 weeks off!
Is there a 5K somewhere between us both we could do? LoL! I need some motivation as I have only been out three times since R4L on 21 May, had a bad cold and weather put me off (weak, I know).....great to read your posts again though!
I bet there is somewhere between us Sofargoner . I'll look out for something. But if you were up for coming my way, I thoroughly recommend the Perth kilt run. It's such a fun sight to be part of! And very all-ability friendly if you know what I mean!
Poppypug will be posting it and you set your goals ( like want to run three times a week ) and you can post your mini successes on there. I have been doing this as it keeps you accountable, and Poppy gives you a well done too😊...
Well done on starting again and take it steady as you ease into action again..x
that's a great idea. If you don't see me on that post after Monday, please give me a nudge!! I went for weigh in today and have put 3lb on in a fortnight. Bit down!
Hello there, I remembered you. Welcome back. Sorry you haven't been well but glad to hear you are getting back to it and your post sounds full of enthusiasm. I might be Joining you in a couple of weeks, just waiting for the physio to give me the all clear, I have been out of action for over three months now. Great that you've brought some new people along with you too. Gold star for recruitment. 😀
Welcome back, yes of course I remember you. Sorry to hear you've been under the weather, glad to hear you're feeling better! Enjoy your C25K journey xx
