Re: New Guy, and my week 1 run 1 !

Well I didn't start week 2 yesterday, as it was too hot :D
Just started it tonight, the first 3 runs were ok, the fourth and fifth were harder, and the sixth was a killer !
Still, no pain no gain :D

Re: New Guy, and my week 1 run 1 !

Well, week one completed, and the Wife came with me today, which did help me. I really can't see how this is supposed to get any easier, but ain't giving up yet. We are going out for a good bike ride soon as well, that will help with stamina. :D

Re: New Guy, and my week 1 run 1 !

:D I am a multimedia freak, I have a Canon D500 DSLR, a Sony PJ10E HD camcorder and a Sony Bloggie. Whenever we go walking I take my video camera, and quite often on playback it sounds like what obscene phone calls used to :D I can't wait to capture some pictures to share on here, weather permitting...

Re: New Guy, and my week 1 run 1 !

Well I did my 2nd run of week one tonight, in the rain ! I would say that made it a little easier, but I was very aware of all the dog walkers watching me huff and puff along my route :D
Early mornings for me in future, that's for sure ! :lol:

Re: Motivational List

I have been overweight after I got my driving licence back in 1979 :D
I lost all my weight in 1992, but slowly put it all back on, and even more.
I am 50 at the end of December, and quite simply, want to be a lot lighter and fitter @50 :D

New Guy, and my week 1 run 1 !

Hi folks, Chris here, currently 15-6 but have been as bad as 17-6, back on a diet, and a friend who does half marathons after using this app introduced it to me. Woke up at 4.30 this morning, so no better time to try my first run. I managed it,despite having legs that are very painful after climbing...
