Good luck op, Luke started running last year and hasn't looked back since, he's done a few 10k, half marathons and just started doing park runs every other Saturday. I did my first park run this morning!  |

Sign yourself up for the Birchwood 10k in August 
Excellent run organised by the Spectrum Striders, on a pretty flat course.
You won't come across a better organised event
And instead of a medal you get a nice fluffy towel with an embroidered logo 
All the ladies also get a bunch of flowers |

I only took up running myself at the age of 39 and after losing just over 17 stone four years ago.I've had a couple occasions where I've gone out too often and had a few niggles with knee and ankle pain etc which isn't surprising after a life of being severely overweight.
I hit the road this morning at 8am and took my Sunday run of just under 9.5km into town to meet friends for coffee etc.
I absolutely love running as I do cycling these days and just can't imagine going back to a life without it. |

Bloody well done, good for you.
Just goes to show determination and hard work, is always better than pills and excuses.
Really well done, chapeau. |
