Just getting back into this running lark.... hard to get back in the groove but once there it's bliss huh
Did a little 4 miler the other day (*hard to tell the mind to take it easy...) *looking to build back up to a good 10k pace/fitness. Best 10K time is 39:48 from a few years back, if I can get within a few mins of that I'll be happy man. Have run one full Mara and a few HM in recent years. That said, I will never run a HM dressed as an animal again, simply awful!
Plan to make use of Strava iOS app as a gauge to pace and distance as it seems to work quite well when cycling, have used the Nike+ thing in the past, but guess it's not as accurate... What do people think works best?
Oh and I too don't believe in stretching before running, mid run maybe, after run for sure, but before... Nah! That said, if you need to pluck up the courage to run, stretch away (but you still need to run) :)
Looking forward to hearing and picking up on running chatter :D
Ohhhh not seen the area before.....
