Hello there,

Im sure your all sick of the "hello im new" posts but hey, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself.

My name is Ryan, Im from Larne in N. Ireland and run for my local club- Larne AC

I first started running a couple of years ago, then joined the club just before last Christmas. In one of my first races (Carnethy, Scotland) I got injured (Ankle). It took ages to get back to normal but over the past couple of months I have started back to training seriously and I am reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally enjoying it! Isn't running so addictive???

Im doing my first marathon in October (Dublin) so thats what Im gearing my training towards!

Anyway, I wont bore you's any longer..... Im looking forward to reading and posting on the forums

Welcome, glad your recovery went well.

I was welcomed and I try to remember to welcome others. Joining a new forum can be daunting, but they are not a bad bunch here.
