As Wheelhouse says, be careful, very easily to get addicted! Great addiction to have though. Let us know when you're planning your first half...

This thread has made me laugh! I remember doing a week of 100 rep sets. That was vomit inducing. Heavy weight/low rep and light weight/long reps. There's a place for all of that, mix it up, keep your muscles guessing. And plenty of cardio. And core. #ironman

Check eBay for "resistance bands" or "tubes". You can pick up a set for <£10 and start there. Loads of workouts on the web.

Half an hour of resistance band work, kettlebells or core and have a protein shake...

Congratulations Rachel, awesome feeling isn't it? I went for a run on Friday, and after 10km I decided I was just gonna keep going, as I felt so good. Just over an hour later I completed 21.1km in 1:59:54. My first sub-2hr half marathon distance, beating my previous best by over 15 minutes. As you said, anything, and I…

Posture? Lol. I was kidding about the hairy bottom btw!

Best: Boobs. Stupid question. Shallow Hal here. Worst: Dunno, probably a hairy bottom or something. I could probably put up with that because of the boobs...

Completely and utterly bollock naked. SInce I was about 12 years old.

Is there any cake?

Depends on what sort. Chocolate spread and jalapeno sandwich?

You'll be fine. I didn't run for 6 weeks prior to a half marathon in April due to a knee injury and it was fine. I ran the distance again last week and again this week. It will be fine, take your time.

Yes, you can. You really can...

Brains.

Billy Connolly said "Eat less. Move more". It's simple. Drop your calorific intake, increase your calorific burn. Lifting weights won't help you lose weight, it's more likely to gain you weight, as despite maybe losing fat, you'll replace it with muscle gain, which is a lot denser/heavier than fat. No brainer. But there's…

Seriously disappointed in some of the attitudes displayed in this thread. Seriously disappointed...

Was the 52 meant for me? Devastated...

In that case, 21, single, model. Will flattery get me anywhere?!?!?!?

Why is there not a "compare" option? I'd chat, nothing to be ashamed of. We'd just been for a run or a ride and got showered, eh Eric?

Yes, if he played Mummy...

Tastes like chicken...

Cycled 18 miles to work in 49 minutes. 18 miles home again yet to do, hopefully as quick, dependent on the strength of the headwind...

I cycled to the summit of Jenkin Road four times yesterday. Twice up the front, twice from the other side. If you don't know what I'm talking about, Google it or search on Youtube. That was in the middle of a 60 mile cycle ride to and from watching the Tour de France. I'm still wondering what the hell possessed me...
