Jantastic
Hi everyone! I signed up to Jantastic yesterday and there is a group on there for MFP Runners. Anyone want to join? You set your own goals so there is no pressure to try and keep up with everyone else. It is also a great way to keep up your motivation in the New Year. Hope to see some of you there!

Race Results
I know a lot of people here have races coming up over the next few months so I thought it would be nice if we had a results thread where we can post our results and see how everyone else is getting on. I don't have anything to post myself but a couple of my friends were racing last weekend: Paula is a lifelong friend since…

Training
So, today I started training for my first 10k, it's not till the end of September, lol, but you can't accuse me of being under prepared! Originally I was going to finish b210k then do an 8 week training plan, but after looking at a training plan on Runner's World I saw it was starting with running over 6km, whereas I am…

Runtastic Calories
I misplaced my HRM back in May and have been using Runtastic's calories burned for my exercise calories. Since I started cycling I felt Runtastic was underestimating my cycling calories burned so I tracked down my HRM. Yesterday I went out and cycled my usual 7 mile route and my HRM measured that I burned 80 calories more,…

Running again!
So I had today marked out as the day to test out my knee. My husband finally got his knee brace back from his friend so I took this as a positive sign.

NSV with pics
My weight has been really slow coming off the past 3 months and it's been getting pretty discouraging, but today I was packing for going on holiday and tried on an old top and, well, the pictures speak for themselves... Taken on my 40th birthday trip to London with seven school friends. Same top, taken tonight. Seeing the…

Entered my first 10k!
Very excited! Started b210k last week and on Saturday went out for a run (away for the weekend with friends and had had a few drinks the day before) so I wasn't expecting to run far. I ran 9k and was still feeling good when I finished. So the first thing I did when I got home today was enter my first 10k, it's not till the…

Does This Sound Like A Plan?
So, I finished c25k on Friday and am planning what to do next. I'm not sure if I want to run 10k's but I want to give it a try. I don't have time to do a b210k program at the moment, but I thought I could do the 5k+ program through the week and do 1 b210k run at the weekend. Then during the summer holidays I can finish the…
