As others said, join a club.
I go through fits and starts running with the Greenwich Tritons. @HatBeard started running there too, before he moved over to cycling, before he moved back to running. Without doubt I get faster even with just the one run session a week.
Plenty of range, probably 2.5 hr through to 6 hour marathon runners and no snobbery around. Also dirt cheap at £30 for the year.

I'm feeling pretty gloomy following my race yesterday. Obvs I knew I wasn't going to be super fast or anything but to still be so slow... :( Will I ever improve? Why does running come so unnaturally to me? Why do I give up so easily? Urgh.
So, I'm trying to think of positive things I can do to get better. Should I join a club? (or will everyone mock me for not being good enough?) What else can I try?
