Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Hey guys, I'm sort of back after what is probably a couple of years of very intermittent running. I've been lurking around here this month deciding when to make my move and pop my head above the parapet :D

Funnily enough I'm also on 29 miles for January although I'm actually quite happy with that based on last years lack of mileage.

I'm not following a plan at the moment but am using the daily recommendations from my Garmin watch which is giving me an interesting variety of runs and nothing too long/far. Working from home allows me to get away with doing these during my lunch break which is working out well for me.

I've also set it to use heart rate as the target which is both frustrating (I've never ran so slowly before and am having to run/walk) but also encouraging in that I'm already starting to see my pace creep up for the target heart rate (still very slow for me though).

I'm hoping to get a decent base before starting HM training later in the year for the GNR.

So anyway, happy new year everyone (still January so think I can get away with saying that!) hope everyone is well and has a good year running ahead of them and while I expect I will still mostly be AWOL I will hopefully pop up now and then to say hello :)

Virtually no running for me due to health and fitness reasons, but I have walked 80 miles this month.

Well done, everyone. 29 is double my tally so keep going.

Annoying calf strain has put everything on hold for a couple of weeks.

About This Thread

Maintained by geordiegirl
*EDIT* in the current situation we are not entering races but I think we can still log any plans we may have over the coming months, whether it is learning a new skill, ticking jobs off a list, moving house(!), doing alternative exercise, aiming for training hours instead of miles, writing to family & friends, finding inventive ways to be together virtually or even entering virus races please fill in the planner and I’ll update this thread and keep our little social group going to share our goals.

Everyone is welcome, whether you don't want to set an official target or you may be aiming further but still want to pop by for a chat/offer some words of wisdom or just because the door is always open and kettle is on.

(When you go in give yourself a colour so I know you're wanting to be on the sheet so I can keep it tidy)

If you update the race planner after I've updated the header drop me an fmail or a reminder (or 2) on the thread so I know to update. Thanks
