I’m like that, I run the same lap of where I live but I’m like ooh which way round will I go today, this could change everythingIv ran the same route since I took up running in March, when I go my run I’ll turn left but sometimes I’ll spice it up and turn right
It’s so refreshing when you go the other directionI’m like that, I run the same lap of where I live but I’m like ooh which way round will I go today, this could change everything
I try to change mine up. Some days I’ll run on grass, some on road, some days I’ll do a hilly route, other days a super flat one.
I find that if I make things hard for myself, when I come to do an easy route in training or a race it feel even easier.
I can’t do it! My route is anti clockwise round my area, and I feel very weird if I try running it clockwiseIt’s so refreshing when you go the other direction
It’s funny all the little quirks we pick up when runningI can’t do it! My route is anti clockwise round my area, and I feel very weird if I try running it clockwise
I won’t finish my run on an odd number either 
Haha, I maybe can't blame running the same route for not progressing then
I've lost my interest for some reason. I'm going through see how I feel tomorrow and if I'm still not feeling it, going to give myself Christmas off

Take some time for yourself, recharge your batteries then see how you feelHaha, I maybe can't blame running the same route for not progressing then

I lost interest in November and haven’t been for a proper run in about four weeks. So I told myself there was no pressure and I’ll start again in January - not to lose weight (although that would be nice) but for the mental health benefits. I never get much from running if it’s for weight loss, but if I look at it for the real benefits it’s actually easier to keep up withHaha, I maybe can't blame running the same route for not progressing then

Having avoided running all week, I'm just back from a 5K 
Partially to escape how sad Christmas makes me feel, partially for the mental benefits, but mostly to prove to myself that I could.
Hope ye are all doing well and if a poster here hadn't mentioned going on Christmas day last week - it never would have even occurred to me. Cheers for being a nice wee running community

Now that gyms are closing here I'm planning to get on top of running again and back up to running 5k at least. After Christmas though
This is so lovely to readHaving avoided running all week, I'm just back from a 5K

well done on getting out there. I hope you are feeling a bit better now!Hi everyone . I want to start running but I’m unsure what I should wear ? How do you know how many layers to put on ? Thanks for any advice !
I think the general rule of thumb is that you should dress for running as if it were 10 degrees Celsius warmer, so if it’s 5c outside wear a similar amount of layers that you would if you were going outside in 15c (not running). Have a look at this article! https://www.runnersneed.com/expert-advice/gear-guides/winter-run-layering-guide.html
Obviously it varies lots depending on how hot or cold you run and how windy it is etc. I often overdress and end up having to tie a jacket round my waist which is quite annoying! Gloves and headbands are good as they keep you warm at the beginning of a run until you warm up.
Hey
For me personally I wear a long sleeve top long leg tights (but that’s because I can’t be bothered doing a fake tan and I’m that white almost blue in colour ) baseball cap and running jacket that I take off 5-10mins into running and tie round my waistQuoting myself, but felt so urgh yesterday, I got up this morning determined to go out. I did a Chloe Ting Ab workout first and then ran 2.8km (I wanted to do 3, but didn't work that way with my route). Was pretty difficult, but I've done it and hopefully I'll feel better for it laterHaha, I maybe can't blame running the same route for not progressing then

I’m off for my first post Christmas dinner run soon aiming for 5k at least wish me luck
I did my first post Christmas just now. Chose a slightly different route to mix it up a bit. Was hard though due to all the crap I’ve eaten and drunk over the last few days. Diet definitely affects how well I run.
Totally agree! Also think because I've had a week off.
