LovesToWet 3,800 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Well I pushed myself to get out on my bike this morning and I'm glad I did. I was out while it was still dark and saw a lovely sunrise to brighten my mood 3 Link to post

Wow! Go for it! If you want the deranged ramblings of someone who relatively recently made that step up from 10k to half, you only have to ask 🙂 But if you have an inspirational person, that's pretty much all you'll need 🙂 2 Link to post

Might try a full next year. I think if I had something to aim for it'll get me motivated again. I have walking plans to aim for, just not a running 1 yet Link to post
LovesToWet 3,800 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 1st run since my half marathon and it didn't feel as bad as I thought it would. I'm glad I pushed myself to get out 1 3 Link to post

LovesToWet 3,800 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Do you stop over winter or do you still get out? Personally I still go out riding regardless of the weather, I just dress for the conditions but do less miles on my bike. I've only run in 1 winter so far and just took it steady, but I was new to running then so I wasn't running far to start with. I just did t run if it was icy Link to post

I just did t run if it was icy I do still run, but not as much, and I am careful - if the roads / paths are icy, it's really easy to lose your footing when running, so that limits when I choose to run. This winter I will try and do more indoor strength work, but try to get out a little. I'm not training for anything in particular, so motivation is lower. Link to post

I haven't got anything planned as yet either so keeping motivated is harder. There's a few things I want to do but fitting them around family is hard so I will wait to see what fits in where. Oh, I'm walking up Snowden in May, but that's it Link to post
