Wow! Brave doing to half marathon! I want to do one too but have told myself it will be at least a year of training, but I have no doubt if you believe and work hard, you'll get there =)

Many congratulations, fellow runner.

Half marathon in March is doable, but take plenty of time to build up your distance.

Consolidate at 30 minutes/5k for a couple of weeks before heading out on adding the miles.

Pop over to the Bridge to 10k forum for the next stage.

Keep running, keep smiling.

Thank you to everyone for your kind words. It was worth all the rain,wind, snow and ice and to finish in the ๐ŸŒždead chuffed.

So inspiring, and what a lovely smile. I'm chugging through week 6 so i hope i will be joining you in the New Year - possibly not anything with the word marathon in it just yet though ;)

Not what you're looking for?
