Just joined pesterers group. I feel I am fully qualified as a pesterer, borderline zealot! :-)G

IM - that's not a fail :-) It's not about making people run every day - it's about helping them do what their best intentions tell them to do. So it's ok to pester them to rest, if that's what they need, or to cross-train.

I had a lovely pester this morning, i've promised that'll i'll be out for 6miles this evening, It feels just like when you arrange to meet your mate for a run & don't want to let them dow.:)

I already done my run before I saw the fmail from my pesterer :-) but as ogee said, it is like you don't want to let ur pesterer down. This arrangement is working for me, thank you mr fetch :-)

I'm getting Stockholm syndrome. No-one has bullied, I mean pestered me yet. Although it is a rest day

About This Thread

Maintained by fetcheveryone
Let's see if this works. There are two groups - the Pesterers and the Lazybones. If you need a bit of encouragement to get out for your run each day, join the Lazybones group. If you think you can shake the apathy out of someone, join the Pesterers group. Every day, each Lazybones will be assigned one or more Pesterers (depending on how the numbers work out) at random, and the rest is up to you.

As a Pesterer, you'll get an fmail each day telling you who to pester / encourage / help. Do your research on their user profile to see the sort of running they're doing. Fmail your Lazybones, or follow them round the website - keep at them, until they've either got their run done, or given you a good reason why not. Be nice though, it's not a license to act like a total git, and you might find that you can really help someone improve their running.

As a Lazybones, you accept that you are likely to be pestered. But you might also find help and support from a fellow runner. You accept that the advice you receive is personal opinion, and agree not to sue anybody if you knacker yourself. If you don't like being pestered, leave the group. Oh, and go for a run, lazy bones."
