NO POM-POMS THIS WEEK??? ๐Ÿ˜ด

It looks as if we have nothing to wave our pompoms for this coming week ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ no races, no special events, no VRBs needing our sparkling support ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

So, it seems like our arms and pompoms can have another rest. Unless you tell us otherwise. Have we missed anyone? Has anybody entered a race and not told us yet? If so, spill the beans here and weโ€™ll get ready for action again.

In the absence of pompom waving we can always still wave to each other โ€ฆโ€ฆ just becauseโ€ฆโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹

Have a great weekend everyone, whether youโ€™re running or not.

From your team linda9389 , Beachcomber66 and me

Morning BC. I think thereโ€™s just a lack of races at this time of year. No doubt weโ€™ll make up for it in other months!

Enjoy! Do you know thereโ€™s a Sweaty Betty shop there? * hides behind sofa *

MissUnderstandingHalf Marathonโ€ข in reply toIrishprincess

I do and I still have some Christmas money to spendโ€ฆ

Do you know about the Sweaty Betty outlet at Clarkโ€™s Village? They do very well out of me!

Irishprincess profile image
IrishprincessAdministratorHalf Marathonโ€ข in reply toMissUnderstanding

Oooh well you know where to go thenโ€ฆ. Thereโ€™s also a great running shop but Iโ€™m sure you probably already know that!

Clarks Village is a bit of a trek for me but I use to love going there when we were closer.

Believe it or not. I did NOT go into SB today ๐Ÿ˜‡

MissUnderstandingHalf Marathonโ€ข in reply toIrishprincess

I do know that running shop! I bought my head torch there. They were amused by my main criteria being โ€œmust fit small headโ€!! What they recommended was great,

Iโ€™m going for a catch up with a non running friend so I might have to skip most of my usual favourites. Impressed you skipped SB. Iโ€™m looking forward to seeing the new patterns in real life (and waiting for the sales!!)

Bath has a sweaty Betty and a run shop??? No wonder I've never been taken there ๐Ÿคฃ Better get there myself then ๐Ÿ˜Š

I know! When you get a gait analysis they look at you running up and down a shopping arcade outside!

It is beautiful today! Iโ€™ve been stuck in with workmen in the house and I canโ€™t wait to make the most of it tomorrow. Letโ€™s hope it stays! Iโ€™ll wave my pom poms in solidarity with you!

Just my 5k toddle up in the woods tomorrow IP. It is a new beginning though. Yesterday I went out on a 45 minute run and had to pull up short; why? because I ran the first 5k too fast without realising itโ€ฆas in way too fast. With Christmas, and all the ice and snow, I had fallen way behind on the version of the NRC HM plan I had paused at 15k at the end of October. So I took a drastic decision; I deleted the plan!! It had ceased to be relevant, in fact it may even have been a distraction as in โ€œjust another couple of runs and will be back at 15k.โ€

I have now down loaded a pristine clear version and will start tomorrow on week 1. I can always skip weeks if I need to. Seems more sensible now than it did when I pressed the delete button!

That all sounds very sensible. You know your body much better than any plan!

๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹ waving from Lancashire. I am considering entering the Mad Dog 10k in Southport next week. However, unning along the coast road into horizontal rain and strong winds (usual weather) isn't too appealing! Happy running, happy training ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ‘‹

Yes, but you'd probably feel like a warrior afterwards ๐Ÿ’ช

Let us know if you do enter.

I'll take the rest of no waving then please. I can't believe I'm fighting off another cold but determined to get my longer run in Sunday as it's getting closer to my Spring half marathon and I haven't done many miles due to lurgi followed by lurgi ๐Ÿ™„ note to self... Do not book winter races and work with littleuns... Happy running this weekend folks ๐Ÿ˜Š

Belated hello, and I did the Windmill Way 10k at Suffolk Running centre with Zig Zag running on Saturday morning. I just booked it as an intermediate step to my HM in Chelmsford in March, and I really wasn't looking forward to it, but actually it turned out to be lovely - small, very friendly, low key, beautiful route and the sun shone. People were doing all distances from 5k to ultras along parts of the same route.
