Not sure if posting this is allowed. If not please delete it dear admins and accept my apologies!

I like this. Even if you're only on week one of C25k you can do it as it asks for 24 minutes of moving but it can be running or walking.

It's for the Grenfell victims.

Excellent Anne, especially as I was in fire prevention for nearly 40 years!😊

I love this idea Anne. I am on the injury couch with a bad back at the moment but hope to be able to run again in the next two to three weeks. This would be a really worthwhile thing to do whilst I am building up my time again. Thank you for posting.🙂

I am definitely going to do this👍

Why does my mobile never open links?

Maybe antivirus software installed that's interfering with links

We often allow links to virtual runs and they are often for charity so I don't have any problems with the post as it is an established organisation. Thanks for the link.

So, this evening I've made two purchases online. One was this and the other was for a new Shock Absorber ( which, for the uninitiated, is a scaffolding-strength running bra).

I've accidentally registered for this run in my NON-running daughter's name, so the medal will come to her.

And...

I've accidentally ordered the sports bra in Him Indoors' name!
