No need for speed

[pa259]

Just finished the above book by John Bingham which I found really interesting. It’s about not being the fastest or the best, being a ‘back of the pack’ runner and enjoying running for the sake of it. And if you need to walk, walk! Well worth a read I think. Also Jog On by Bella Mackie and Eat, Drink, Run by Bryony Gordon which also cover anxiety and depression. As I am going to have start over next week as this week I have been pretty ill, these books have helped me realise that’s it’s ok and it really doesn’t matter if I finish in 9 weeks or 9 months as long as I try!

That’s interesting, I’m always looking for a good book or two. Will check them out! And starting over is fine, I’m only a beginner too but the advice on here is take it at your own pace and repeat whenever you need to. Keep going! 😁

If you enjoy it, you keep doing it! They sound like great reads so I’ll look out for them. Happy running!

Absolutely, take the pressure off, just do what feels good 👍🏻😁

Definitely running because we like it not because we have to. 😊😊

Lots here for those with injuries, & feeling frustrated, to get on and read, while they recover. Thanks, making a note of them for my holiday coming up! 📚
