Hey all,

Hope all is well. Did my 10K earlier today and it went great amanged to keep up a good pace all the way round and didnt stop. I didnt get a great time though, just over an hour, but thats because you could not run much quicker because of how many runners there were and the first K or two was nealry walking pace but expected because of how big an event it was. Was a great day and coming down the final strech was great with the crowd cheering eveyone on! Think Ill have to get singed up for a smaller 10k now to prove I can beat an hour! No way I could of done this if I was still smoking so I really proud of myself!

Congratulations!!!

My husband, who has never run a meter in his life, did a 5k charity run a couple of weeks ago, and now there's no stopping him, he runs every day and is getting all these fancy running apps for his phone.

I'm full of admiration. Although I will not be emulating either of you :D

Great job. Well done to you.

Well done you!

Thats a great achievement. You should be so proud of yourself. It doesnt matter what time you did it in, as you said, you didn't really get a choice. But i bet it still felt great though. :D

I couldn't even imagine attempting that sort of distance. Big pat on the back!

Very well done Dave! One ot the many benefits of quitting. I joined a gym and loving it. A real buzz.
