Orior - were you there this morn? I'm getting worse instead of better. I'm a long way off my PB - about a minute and a half.

There's prob going to be a run on New Year's Day at 10am.
Nope. I was back on the golf course where I belong, lol. However I'm planning to do the one at 10am on New Year's Day, followed by a gentle cycle in the afternoon. The life of Reilly, eh?

I normally go on the treadmill for 5k or 20mins whatever comes first, today I gave a debut to a new pair of trainers and after 10 mins I started to feel a lot of lower back pain and had to go off.  Is this normal? Back has been sore all day and it hurts to bend over. #sadface

?? I'm a 21 minute man for 5K. Got the Garmin watch, which really worries me as it means her in doors is probably reading my posts FFS. Will get it up loaded tomorrow when I get a chance

Bingo

New year and new targets I suppose. Did a 10km race on St Stephens day and another run another day but have been quite lazy during the holidays, which is excuseable after a hard year.

Committed to a 30 day challenge starting pm Saturday - 30 days, 30 runs at a minimum of 30 mins a day. Will be interesting and a good start to the year.

Looking at doing the Connemarathon in early April or the belfast marathon in May. Have to decide this week and sort out a plan for the spring.

A friend of mine in work started running 3 miles per day on 1 July - it's a challenge that lasts a year ( www.1095miles.com).

She's over halfway through it.  She's done one marathon and only took up running in 2010 but I'm super-impressed with her dedication to be out every day.

That's class, fair play to her. Some going, hope she doesn't get sick or something.

I'm going into hibernation training wise until the end of March. Going to get stuck into 5K/10K training to peak in August-September and then start into marathon training in November for Boston marathon 2014.

Just in from a 12K, did it in 53 mins. The first one of 2013 and it feels great!!

Oh that's even better - he can enjoy pints on Sunday without having to feel guilty about missing parades  ;D

Thanks Dec!

Any of you tried spinning. Started it at the end of November and do it once a week. Tough stuff but good results.
