Holding conversation whilst running...

[Bxster]

this morning holding conversation consisted of several 'good morning' in response to 'good morning' and 'bugger off' to a good natured 'do you need a lift?' from a friend driving his van in a stalking kerb crawling style who thinks he's funny

It's a busy village to be running about in, I miss my quiet country lane lol

Runningitis has taken a firmer grip here, I now have a self made 9 week training chart (9 weeks to RfL) attached to the side of the fridge and some sticky stars to award myself I have a running and well being diary and I have a copy of Go Faster Food lol (addition to running reading lol) I am also starting cross training by going for a bike ride as part of the weeks routine... No idea where the non running me of 12 weeks ago has gone, clearly been abducted and replaced by an alien

It's fantastic how much we can transform ourselves in such a short time, isn't it? I am glad you are having so much fun with the running bug. May you be twice-bitten!

[AliB1 Graduate]

Well we like this alien!

Impressed with cross training!

[TJFlute]

Cycling too! Impressive. I always wobble and fall off

[Minuette Graduate]

I've been abducted too, going away soon and only looking at hotels which have a fitness centre!

Laughed at the "bugger off" comment!

Ha ha! I know, I had an impromptu visit to the hairdresser today and panicked as I was going to start my 10k training and I actually seriously considered running to the hairdressers!!! HELP ME NOW!!!!

I love the feeling though, It's transformed me

I* don't think I'm as committed as you though, I haven't resorted to reading running books yet ( still don't consider myself a "proper" runner)!

A running and well-being diary, I'm impressed. While my OH was recuperating from chemo I used to drag him out to do circuits of the villages where we live to help build up his strength again, on cycles I mean, but haven't done that much of it since. He does cycle next to me sometimes while I'm running and I've got to say it looks very appealing some days instead of running Do all aliens eat go faster food?
