Iv 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 rightAnyone know how important it is to mix up your run route? I think this may be what's stopping me progressing.

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.Anyone know how important it is to mix up your run route? I think this may be what's stopping me progressing.
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 running I won’t finish my run on an odd number eitherI can’t do it! My route is anti clockwise round my area, and I feel very weird if I try running it clockwise
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'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
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

This is so lovely to read well done on getting out there. I hope you are feeling a bit better now!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
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.htmlHi 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 always run in shorts. I get too hot in leggings. I get very red thighsHi 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 !
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 waistHi everyone .

Quoting 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

Totally agree! Also think because I've had a week off.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.
