Em89 Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Hi I am about to go out on week 2 day 3 in a bit and would be lovely to talk to people from the UK or other parts of the world and together we could help each other through this plan!? It is currently 4degrees outside but I guess you warm up on the run! Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janegb Posted February 14, 2016 Report Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hi Emma I'm from the UK but living in Idaho now. If you want a buddy I'll be here. It'll be nice to have someone to give encouragement when you really don't feel like getting out, especially when it's cold or raining!

Janegb Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Hi Emma Small world, I used to work in Lakeside. I listen to music and I find that I'm so busy singing along the 3 in was up before I knew it. And if it's cold, wrap in layers, but you'll soon warm up once you get going. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em89 Posted February 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 3min runs wasn't actually as bad as I thought although I think I did run them at a slow pace?! :/ Well done for completing the 5 min runs Emma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janegb Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I just do a slow jog, looking to get through the runs without having to stop, then when I feel comfortable I'll speed up a bit. I'm entered into a 5k on March 12th so that's my motivation to keep going and I want to finish it in 30 mins or less. I will not fail!!!
