Persistently Positive

September 9, 2016September 9, 2016 ~ duffrunning ~ 10 Comments

Last Saturday I laughed at my physio. He was asking how many days off running I would take after my ‘marathon’ on Sunday. In between reminding him several times that it was a half marathon, not a marathon (he’s a cricketer, not a runner. Can’t get the staff) I confidently reassured him that I would … Continue reading Persistently Positive

In The Club

September 3, 2016September 26, 2016 ~ duffrunning ~ 6 Comments

I read a post in the week where the writer mentioned that they wished they could run with other people. I'm not sure why they can't (I'm sure they have their reasons), but I agree that running with other people can make a world of difference. It happens that today is exactly a year since … Continue reading In The Club

Burning Up the Track

August 6, 2016August 6, 2016 ~ duffrunning ~ 10 Comments

So I ran round my local park last night with an actual Olympian. No big deal. As part of an England Athletics initiative to encourage more women to take up coaching, some tenacious Eagles had arranged for British athletics legend Mara Yamauchi to lead a guest coaching session for the club. Mara competed for Team … Continue reading Tempo Wednesdays – Coached by an Olympian

Sister Act – the Eagles 10k

May 25, 2016June 15, 2016 ~ duffrunning ~ Leave a comment

Early in 2016, my big sister (affectionately referred to as the Little Big Sis, being of the vertically challenged persuasion), happened to mention that she and her family were seriously considering getting a pet dog, and as such she would need to put some effort into getting fitter to keep up with it. Initially she … Continue reading Sister Act – the Eagles 10k

Getting Started – Flying with the Eagles

May 25, 2016June 15, 2016 ~ duffrunning ~ 1 Comment

The next stage of the journey was an unexpected joy. A few weeks before EHM we decided to join our local running club, the Ealing Eagles. This was partly because I wanted to make sure I kept going after EHM on 27th September and build up a firm base before starting my marathon training. However, … Continue reading Getting Started – Flying with the Eagles
