my marathon guru at my running club always said "hills are our friends" i never got it until i ran 26 on flat ground.... now hills are my friend for sure, but only uphill, my knees hate downhills Sent from the Diabetes Forum App
That's also what I used to tell my eldest son before cross country races!
I don't understand how?!

At this time?!? I prefer 8am, get it over with and then the rest of the day I can feel smug that I've already done my exercise

which raises a question you may be able to answer for me as a female.... last night and not for the first time i scared the **** out of a lady walking along, i was coming up from behind her, i purposly try to slap my feet on the ground to make her notice, she didnt and jumped out of her skin when i passed her, the road had cars masking my noise and that meant i couldnt run aroung her in the road, do you think it would have been better to shout in advance "im coming" or would me running towards her shouting be more scarey do you think? i appologised and she was fine but just wonder what to do next time?

Well done Hale. You've come a long way since you entered the event and thought that you would have to walk part of it.
I'm now feeling very lazy and jealous reading about your run and the other's park runs. I really must get back out running again. So thanks for that it's given me a bit of motivation (now to sustain it)
You even had me almost entering my favourite event but May day is probably a bit soon.
(nice run along the Canal, as it's May day they give sprigs of Lilly of the valley/roses to all the ladies. After the race all the running numbers go into in a draw with lot of prizes and then everyone settles down to boeuf bourguignon with a glass or 3 of wine ) .
Time confirmed at 31:52!! I'm so chuffed!
We've been discussing going to our local park run, but it's along the beach which is usually freezing......
