I am the same. I love the cardio section and but i just can't get over to the weights section as i feel intimidated. I know that they aren't looking at me etc or remotely interested in what i am doing, but feel very self conscious. Suppose once i get over that i will have no bother!

Hi, feel free to add me. I log everyday, and try shutting me up! hehe Kat x

Hi, That is a great achivement, very well done. I am on the Isle of Man - not too close but still UK. Feel free to add me. Kat x

I have a Kelly Homes HRM, and for the price i paid for it £19.95, its brilliant. Eventually want to up to a Polar, but for the time being this is doing the job nicely.

Everyone feel free to add me :)

hi. I am 5 foot and a 27 inch leg (how small?? :)) i get my joggers from M&S and for the gym i usually wear capri running tights/leggings as they are the only ones which fit leg wise which won't trip me up.

Hello, Feel free to add me. Although don't lift heavy i am training for half marathon and incorporate some lifting into my strength work.

I second the hill training. My other half has done the GNR 6 times and never mentioned that the hills were well hilly :). Even he said last year he forgot how steep some of the hills are so definately get the hill training in. But overall once i had finished it it wasn't as bad as i thought it was going to be. When i was…

Great work!

I incorporate around 50 squats into my routine, but this is along with side squats, squats with an ankle touch and other thigh/leg related exercises (can you guess i have a problem with my thunder thighs? lol) With regards to crunches, i do 100, but again along with other ab related exercises. K

Annoying woman that copies what i am doing on the treadmill/xtrainer, but obviously doesn't have the right gym clothes. i.e silly "fashion" trainers rather than proper running ones.

Sorry i have had a shocking month this month with regards to running! I am going to try my very best to get out soon and make the effort.

Hi, I am new to the group. Would you be able to add me to the March Challenge?? 50 miles to start with :) Thanks Kat

Yes a year is plenty of time. I did it this year, and decided a year before that i wanted to do it, and was a non runner, and pleased to say i completed it and did it under 3 hours! Not too shabby considering that my training suffered through one thing or another. Doing it next year! Welcome to help where needed. I may…
