| Thanks Scot are you a runner too? |
Not really, more of a gym bunny, although that does include a lot of miles on the treadmill, I guess.
But this wasn't about me, it was about a single Mom keeping herself in half-marathon shape.
But oh, ew!!! Now Cheeky's comment about Snickers - after a half Marathon.
Ew! Ew! Ew!
(Nice double pun, though).

The dreaded treadmill, I find it so boring and only use it for speedwork or if I can't get outside for whatever reason.

Well done missme!
I never thought of it like that ScotInCornwall - Im lucky I think, being single I can do what I want when I want and hadnt thought about single parents keeping in shape and the work it needs, so well done again missme!
Still on dial up - this time pay per minute till I get broadband sorted

Thanks sp. I've signed up for my next race now.
Its one of the valentine love runs which are held in newcastle,london & cardiff in Feb every year. It should be a big turnout and I've done a 5k on the same route before so I know its nice and flat & I'm hoping to knock another few minutes off my time
17.12.2006, 13:11 quote
So are you going to London, Cardif or Newcastle?
I think they are a bit far to travel for me for 'just' 5km - I think if Im travelling for a weekend I would want to go on as longer run. I havent even looked yet at next year really, I should do that over christmas I think, when Im full of turkey and cant move is perhaps the best time to think I need a challenge to do.

Matter of taste, I guess. I've never been a fan of long-distance running (was always a sprinter/long-jumper, explosive rather than endurance - oo-er, Matron!), but include a good chunk of miles in my overall workout, combined with other cardio excercises. Just about keeping a good body shape for me, rather than pleasure from actual running.
But again, this is not about me.
Hope you shave
. . . some more seconds off your times in yor upcoming races.

Fingers crossed ! I'm not that fast as you can see from my times but I only started running in March so I know there's still room for improvement.

As a workmate said to me once "running is boring..all you do is put one foot in front of the other"

Poppet, I could introduce you a quite a few single mothers who couldn't *WALK* that distance!
You never claimed you were an Olympic runner, so how fast you are is related only to how fast *YOU* are, no-one else.
I say effort, and I challenge anyone else to say otherwise.

I know this isnt quite the right place, but....
Would it be very wrong to go for a run / race to avoid brother wife's 30th birthday if I didnt want to go to it?
