Has running ruined your social life?

No...............

What's a social life?

Not the amount that I run, besides, the thought of a few beers at the end of the run has almost the opposite effect.

Not exactly ruined it, but just made it less important

Since joining a running club it as improved....

For me it has brought alot of people together, 7 of us entered the Silverstone 1/2 marathon this year and it was really good to know other people doing it, made it a lot less daunting, it also made it easier as we all socialise together everyone understood the importance of training and getting prepared for the day. To which I am sure we will do more events together as a collective.

I try not to drink as much on a Saturday night because I know it will interfere with my Sunday run.

How sad am I?:eek:

Very good point. When I first started running, from Huddersfield Sports Centre, we used to organise coach trips to the Windermere /Kendal 10 mile race and Scarborough ½ marathon. As you say, it was far less daunting running with a group of people we trained with every week. Also, the friendly competition and quest for PB's helped our progress.
Cheers!

I only worry about that if I have a race on the sunday.


So I can look forward to a boring almost alcohol free saturday night this week.

I just hope it`s worth the sacrifice.........
