get out there and start with ten minutes!
Oh, yes, I know that feeling. Map My Run is ace.

I do half-marathons and I'd never run anything before my first one. I put off my very first ten minute run for a long as possible. It was hellish. I went on to complete my first half-marathon in a sub-2hr time and I had a broken leg (which obviously I didn't know about at the time).

Three months is loadsa time.

(It's not the Bath Half, is it? If so, I'll see you at the starting line.)

It is indeed the Bath Half.
I did a half hour run on Wednesday and plan to do likewise tomorrow, even though my legs are killing me still, but the 16 miles of cycling I did yesterday probably didn't do anything to stop that.

I have no idea what sort of time I'll be looking to do, but three months is plenty of time, so, unless I procrastinate too much between now and then, I should be in good shape for it.

the Bath Half
is supposed to be an excellent course - flat, and with loads of supportive spectators. We should stick it on the b3ta calendar and make people come and cheer.

I'll come along and cheer wank furiously.

aim for the face as I run past;
it'll be nice and refreshing.

Excellent.
Very pleased to hear the course is good and flat, although I've mapped out some hilly runs, just in case.
