Running alone is pure torture. Music helps a little though.AussieReaper wrote:
I go for a jog every once in a while, but it's shit boring by myself. I always walk my dog and I'll say "okay, let's run" and he'll take off with me next to him.
I've found after a short while it gets much easier, you can run longer, etc.
You don't need a strict routine to see some improvement, so start slow and work your way up.

nice dude, how long have you been running seriously for?Hakei wrote:
I've done a few marathons, 50k ultra.
Plan to do a 7 days of 100 km across Australia in about 12 months.
that's nearly 10k, what was your time?jord wrote:
I ran 6 miles 2 weeks back, I don't know how far that is for you metricfags. Once first mile is out the way if you've eaten well and hydrated well you feel like you can do 20 miles. All about having a litre of water beforehand.
It wasn't a timed thing it was squadded and we had to keep running back and snaking so slow people could catch up. If I was gonna do it timed (I'm slow so I never will) I'd do it on flat surfaces. I hated running at the start but once you get the start out of the way it's enjoyable, especially with nice surroundings and weather. Which is rare now.Simon wrote:
