well done, that is a great feat

[ When I am running easily, I don't have to use mental tricks to keep going and going. you are so right, not too long a go when 4 was my limit, the last km was tough, now that 10 is my limit the last 2 are tough, making kms 3-4 (the "old" tough ones) seem relativley easy point is as we pr...

thanks, i managed to avoid the ice cream - seems to be a shame to encourage bad habits when the running is helping with weight loss the 10 km was tough i did not decide till 8 km that i would try to run 10 , so the last 2 km were a struggle but once i finished i figured that it was all mental as my ...

first ever non stop 10 km

yay for me

should i celebrate with a trip to the freezer?

i am looking for a program that might get me up to say 10km, i run max 8 km at the moment, once a week with 3-4 shorter runs of 3-4 kms a time, so my max weekly is approx 20 km, i have no interest in speed more in increasing time and distance ( is all for weight loss) To get up to 10K from 8K all y...

what programs are these? are they on this site? i often think i would benefit from following a program, might keep me disciplined thnaks I think she's referring to the Running Room programs, which can be found in John Stanton's books (though many have copies I'm sure they could share).

i think that is the key, just keep going/moving, whatever it takes

btw you mentioned you wanted to really run, i dont think there such a thing - there is running and staying on the couch

i am very new to this but here is my 2 cents i am a slow runner but i run contiuously, with no walk breaks, i know some people like to recover with walk breaks but i find it breaks my breathing rhythm and it takes too long to get comfortable again after a walk break....so the first ten minutes or so...

Holabird is currently not shipping Brooks to Canada due to Brooks' restrictions. This stinks, best store ever. they were recommended to me for New Balance, the prices looked great but when i called them the lady said they would not ship to Canada, though I am told they have done this in the past, n...

If you don't mind driving and find a really good deal in the US you can ship to the UPS store in Massena NY just across the border from Cornwall. I believe it is called the Ship It Shop. It has an address so is not a PO Box You just track your parcel online, call them to confirm it arrived, and the...

did not make it out of bed but once up i did run, albeit only 4 km, so i guess guilt can be inspirational

seven kms today - quietly impressed i thought it might take longer to get back to that distance

may go watch the army run tomorrow for inspiration
