Sharkie Sep 2021 2:05pm, 1 Sep 2021 18,467 posts	0 Sharkie It’s September. How did that happen? (The usual way, Sharkie: August ended yesterday AND SUMMER, back to school now.) Oh well - time for the Start Something in September thread, companion to Do a New Thing for Spring but with a different emphasis. All you have to do is state your intention to start something. And then do it. Can be anything, doesn’t have to be running related - but might be. We like regular updates and my main law is that it has to be something you WANT to do ( no shoulds or ought, please.) Tunnel coming up….

EvilPixie Sep 2021 2:22pm, 1 Sep 2021 27,565 posts	0 EvilPixie yeah! Happy days! OK so .... in September I will walk/run at least 6000 steps a day (I know it should be 10k but if my exercise is on my bike then I don't get steps so have to do something else and if it's a rest day I do bugger all so 6k seems a good compromise!)

Badger Sep 2021 2:35pm, 1 Sep 2021 14,131 posts	0 Badger Think harder? At least once a week, cook something I have never cooked before. Doesn't need to be complicated, just needs to add variety. Bonus points to self if it would keep my pickiest friends happy.

Alice the Camel Sep 2021 2:36pm, 1 Sep 2021 8,206 posts	0 Alice the Camel I’ll be switching from Lawn to Indoor Bowls, something that I’ve never tried before. Trial session arranged for Friday morning.
Sharkie Sep 2021 2:37pm, 1 Sep 2021 18,468 posts	0 Sharkie Doesn’t have to be completely new, can be a restart. Might be something you/I/a person has always fancied having a go at and would like a bit of encouragement. I guarantee support for all new endeavours- but bear in mind I’m more a tough love than a multi hugs type.
