  • Epona_mus I hear you! I am going to look at a nearly new pair of Kentucky Reitmoden breeches next week... OutrAustralian sizing runs a bit differently but I need to be able to squeeze into an Aussie size 10... If I can, they are a bargain. Light jodhs are so unforgiving... And you should try lightweight endurance tights! :)
  • Did week 5 day 2 yesterday. Ran it at 10km/hr (6.25 mph) Friday - aagh. I WANT to do the full 20 minutes at 10km/hr but I don't know...

  • 160.5 this morning. Target is 154 by Xmas. MIGHT just get there...
  • Week 5 day 1 done yay. Was feeling good come the 5 minute mark so kep going, and like others say, after about 10 minutes you get a groove happening. I ended up doing the 20 minutes, and it's only day 1!! Very happy with myself. Course, now I have to repat it on day 2...

  • I'm in! I'm Anna and I'm currently working my way through the C25K challenge. I broke the 5km barrier today. I run 3 times a week, so that's 15km a week, so I SHOULD get my 50km in. This will keep me honest when I'm on Christmas break!
  • Week 4 day 2 done... feeling better than I have in a long time... Even added in a sprint for the final minute all 4 runs!

  • At least down here in Oz we don't have to worry about Thanksgiving...!
  • Did week 4 day 1 in my lunch break. 5 minutes is a challenge but I got there. I've had to retreat indoors and use a treadmill as the weather is warming up in Oz (30 degrees is TOO WARM for this runner!)

  • Kids and I rode on Saturday, for about an hour. Down here (down under!) we are moving into summer and it will soon be too HOT to ride - maybe 3 or 4 weekends opportunities left. My horses all get a spell over summer. LOVE the fact that nowadays when I ride with my kids I have to push to keep up!! Peacheywoo your ride…
  • Hi Everyone What's your name: Anna Where do you live: Narrogin Western Australia (the middle of freaking nowhere) How long have you been riding: since I was about 3... What horses do you have: 4! My kids have a Welsh B pony (Mojo) and a Connemara (Angel), then I have a Standardbred (Prycie) - he's the one in my avatar -…
