Take ie easy D! You'll soon build up your times & then teenage boy's pals won't be laughing so much I bet!!
I had a great run today but think I may be aching tomorrow. First proper run since kids went back so decided to go for some hill work. Felt really strong all the way round & just took my time. Unfortunately got hung up at the viewpoint by an old couple who decided the fat runner OBVIOUSLY needed to stop & chat.
*must learn to not stop & stroke menacing looking mutt. Run run run*

Went for a slow recovery run just now after yesterday's 21 miles.
Then it started p!ssing it down, so the slow recovery run tunred into sub-7 min/mile stuff. Oops!

nice run this morning with Tappers and Croc. sloooooow pace for them. moderate pace for me. 7 and a bit miles.
then an hour's pedaling round the park. I pedalled constantly, the boys needed to stop for rests.
Oh, OK, the boys stopped to wait for me.
we got roasted by the sun and soaked by the rain. several times for both!
LOL Old Mum.

ran with a buddy for the first time today - found somebody my size and who is used to running similar distances, although a little faster than i am used to. she slowed down a little, i sped up a little, and knocked 2 minutes off my usual 7k time 
we're planning to run 10k together on thursday

That's good to hear Riga, well done
I've forced myself to rest today so I've been chomping at the bit but I'm going early doors in morning for a good few miles...

yes its strange how you start to need your running 'fix' after a day or two off, isn't it?!
honestly, now don't kick me out of fetch for saying this, but i USED to think runners were bonkers and they only ran because they thought they should, and they couldn't possibly, possibly ACTUALLY ENJOY it....could they...?

LOL Riga, looks like the bug has bitten... :-).
"We had a thread on here not long ago called you know when you are addicted to running when..."
I say when you arrange your life around your running rather than running around your life...
