Re: Wanna be Runkeeper Street mates?

Hi Off to Biarritz in France for a couple of weeks, sort of hoping the weather is hot but I know I will struggle running in the heat, I thought the campsite we are going to had treadmills but found out they only have bikes and cross trainers. So looks like I will have to dig deep and run on the road...

Re: Wanna be Runkeeper Street mates?

I just wondered if an Get Running runners would like to link up on Runkeeper so we can share runs? I know not everyone will have Runkeeper (I love it as an accompaniment to Get Running) Also - i guess some people may not like sharing the idea of sharing speeds etc - but I am still slow! I almost re...

Re: Look who got a big shout out!!

Think I need to get run keeper! Anything that helps has to be a good thing!
One more rest day and off I go again!

Hope I can do a long run again. Week 7 here I come. :?

Hi, I actually can't wait until my next run, quite looking forward to it, not what I expected. I hope my enthusiasm continues.

Re: Look who got a big shout out!!

Hi,has anyone tried any of the other apps?
I like the look of upbeat and run keeper but would like to use them at the same time as get running, would they all work at the same time does anyone know?

I did it! Wk 6 r3

I actually can't believe it! I ran for 25 mins, without stopping. I never thought I would be able to do that, and I nearly enjoyed it. My husband came with me for moral support which actually made a big difference, there was no way I was going to stop with him watching me! I know I was slow but I ca...

Re: Should I repeat wk 5 run1

Hi i have just done my 2nd run of week 6 and found it really hard, not sure why, think i must be just dog tired. I am not too hopeful about run 3!! I am based just outside Southampton, UK what about you? I understand what you mean about the solitary nature of running, even when I go to the gym and u...

Re: Should I repeat wk 5 run1

Hi, I was looking at boot camp exercise myself, my daughter does it and says whilst it is hard it is great fun. However, she did say, quite tactfully, that it might not be for me. Not sure if she was referring to my age, weight or lack of fitness! I start week 6 tomorrow, not sure how I will go on t...

Hi Thanks for your reply, I actually went ahead and did run 2 and have since done run 3! i have to admit I did run 3 in the gym on the treadmill! it is easier i know but I had had a really busy weekend and I knew that if I went out on the street I wouldn't run for the full 20 minutes. When I use the...
