Its a really good app I wasn't out to set a great time but to enjoy the route and test myself. I actually really enjoyed it. The last 5 Km my left knee started giving me problems and was seizing up.Still feeling the pain in my knee just now and struggling to walk on it. Hopefully it will recover with some rest You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Ive often thought about getting back into running. I used to do it a little, just 3 mile routes but I'd try to run them as fast as I could. always thought about trying longer runs.

I understand the commitment and dedication - I love to indoor row on my Concept II rower, and frequently do half marathons (same distance as running) and once even did a full marathon, over three and a half hours! I have rowed almost 10 million meters in the years I've been doing it. Stay with it - Stay healthy! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I used to run everyday…sometimes long distance. I didn't pay attention to the warning signs of my sore knees and it took me many months to recover from some knee injuries. Just make sure to pay attention to your body, wear the right shoes, rest up and all that good stuff. Keep it up! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I used to be able to run 10-15k without problems, but sure as hell can't do that today. Thanks mate. Any running I have ever done has being on a running machine so it was good to get out and run in the fresh air.My brother just started to get fit in January again. He could not even run a 5k then but now he can do a half marathon in under 3 months training.I think your body can do amazing things in short periods of time with the right training and nutrition. QUOTE (bleez @ Mar 23 2014, 07:19 PM) well done matey. Looks like it was a really cool route. Ive often thought about getting back into running. I used to do it a little, just 3 mile routes but I'd try to run them as fast as I could. always thought about trying longer runs. Cheers mate.I think running shorter distances at a faster pace would be harder than running longer distances at a steady pace. You should get into again its great feeling after you have done it.

Yes its a very good choice Monica It was a great picture.The view was incredible across the loch first thing in the morning. I know what you mean about waking up to see the same boring thing everyday QUOTE (Headbanger @ Mar 23 2014, 07:43 PM) Well done!!!

Just make sure to pay attention to your body, wear the right shoes, rest up and all that good stuff. Keep it up! My knee is still in a lot of pain. I am finding it hard to bend it and walk on it properly. To be honest I don't think human bodies were designed for this kind of stuff.Maybe OK to do long distance running every now and then.The constant impact on your body while running is a serious issue.I really don't know how endurance runners can do what they do and the state that their body will be in when the get older.

Do you still ride motorbikes after your accident.I think that would put me completely off them if that happened to me. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
