Lip Gloss Jun 2019 8:35pm, 15 Jun 2019 34,490 posts	0 Lip Gloss Hope everyone is doing well at doing their own thing. Been trying to do project joker for the last few weeks in the hopes that I can get back to somewhere near where I used to be. This weather has so far been rubbish but ever hopeful for summer to start. We have Alfie tonight so granda is just reading him his bedtime story. We might do junior parkrun tomorrow if it's dry.

Nutso, it's not too late to add April and May - the more the merrier. Hope to see a few more on here and the spreadie soon. And hope everyone is OK.

Ww aww bless ya I will look and see what I have to add it’s been a bad few months!!! My mojo has gone a bit the weather isn’t helping don’t feel especially for etc etc but I’m trying to go through the motions! A flare up of my injury isn’t helping but physio exercises should have it under control. Hope others are having a better time lol

kwala Jun 2019 10:58pm, 23 Jun 2019 6,366 posts	0 kwala Hey there everyone. I've had a miserable few months with lots of knee and back pain and have finally made the decision that I'm not going to be running again. However, all is not lost and I have started walking instead and am trying to get a walking group going at my running club. So far it's just me, one of my friends and one of the old boys from club who can't run anymore because of arthritis in his hip, but I'm hopeful that we'll gain a few more members over the next few weeks as word gets out about what an awesome walking group leader I am!! Slower and prouder than ever!!!

My local running club has a group that runs or walks during the Summer, normally involves a pub and lovely countryside. They also do something in the Winter. horshamjoggers.co.uk
