Hi there,
I will introduce myself as a newbie as I am really struggling with my jogging at the moment (not quick enough to call myself a runner!!)
I did a 5km last January and was about to start training for a 10km when I got a bad injury and was out for 4 months. I then joined a ladies football team and instead of giving me the opportunity to do more jogging, I have found it harder to run any distance (training is more shuttle runs than distance).
What I haven't mentioned is I have lost 5 stone in the past year but still have another 4 or so to go yet so I am still overweight although alot fitter than I look (or so I think). My times aren't really important to me at the moment as I think I walk quicker than I jog, but we all have to start somewhere dont we!!
Any advice on how I can increase my training from 2 miles to higher would be greatly appreciated.
Nicola
