  1. I did my first run for a couple of months on sunday, did around 2.5km and was happy with being able to get back in to it and run that far without stopping! Aim for this year is to complete a 10km race!

  2. My dad is a massive lover of HMV as he has CD's everywhere, even he now has taken to getting them offline which is much cheaper than HMV. He is a music boffin and has commented recently on how much HMV have gone down the pan, hardly any specialist CD's he wanted and a lot more dvd sections. Personally haven't brought anything from there in ages.

  3. I need help with a secret santa gift, we have decided to do a secret santa between a group of friends mixed girls and boys. I have picked the worst possible person one of the lads and need a guys opinion of ideas to get him, the limit is £10 and his personality and interests are as follows, he isn't really in to any sports he tolerates watching Villa and more of a Inter Milan supporter! What he tends to do in his spare time is play on the xbox, Fifa, COD etc... And he goes to college in the week.

    I really need some suggestions as to what get him or ideas, anything would be appreciated!

  4. Someone I know has just brought a Breitling watch, over £5000 looks nice and all that but would not pay that for it! It costs over £300 to have it serviced, a car doesn't even cost that much! Unless you were rich I don't know why people buy them. Another work colleague has a Rolex I don't see the point!

  5. Had to post to say I completed my run!! The weather was dreadful and I looked like a drowned rat by the end, completed in 37mins, I know the time isn't brilliant but I was pleased to come in under 40mins and it was first time I'd actually ran a full 5km!

  6. Been for a run tonight, still doing the couch to 5km at the moment coming to the end, did around 28 minutes of constant running today so happy as it's only been 6 weeks since I started.

    I've got my run a week on sunday so probably 3 more sessions before then and I have the route of the run so will have to do that on one run. Anyone have any tips on what I should be doing this week leading up to the race?

  7. Thanks everyone! Nice to have some support, hopefully tomorrow's run I will be able to do the same as it's an after work run and they are a bugger!

  8. I finally managed to run a whole 25 minutes yesterday with no stopping or anything, I am very proud of the fact that 5 weeks ago I couldn't run for 2 minutes and now I'm doing 25, it might be at a very slow speed but it was damn hard and I am soooo happy!

  9. So I did my first 20mins run yesterday, did I make it full 20minutes?! No!!

    I did around 13 mins before needing to walk for a minute or so (The wind in Sutton Park was really strong and I had to stop to catch breathe properly) Then I did do the final 6 minutes or so and just so I wasn't loosing any time I did an extra minute and a half over the 20minutes to make it up! All in all I am quite happy with it! Exactly 4 weeks today till the run, fingers crossed training keeps up!
