@Tanni_GT My son (a wheelchair user) went to Aldi to buy a dog Christmas jumper, he couldn’t t find the size so asked. The assistant said very loudly and slowly,”THESE ARE DOG JUMPERS LOVE, NOT FOR YOU”.
@Tanni_GT@80s_Kidz Daps in Swansea. It’s a Welsh thing, I live in England now and my kids call them plimsoles, I can’t bring myself call them that. 😂🏴
@Raworthontherun@parkrunUK That’s brilliant. Well done! I got a PB this morning 25’54. I’m 50, took up runnning when I was 49 and ran TLM in October. Running is the best. It can be what you want it to be and you can eat cake!
@mrsbagsathome@Raworthontherun @katehelencarter I ran my first marathon last October aged 50 - I took up running at 49 -I decided to Jeff it and followed Jeff Galloway’s marathon plan. I ran for 7 minutes and walked for 1. I maintained 12 minute miles,5’09’50”. I did this throughout my training.Good luck and above all enjoy!x
@CatherineShear5@UKRunChat I read that Paula Radcliffe had porridge with banana and honey so that’s what I have. It worked for me when I had to it at 5 and then didn’t start the marathon until 10. I didn’t have anything else and fueled on gels. Good luck.
@sianwilliams100@DavidWil26@royalmarsden Brilliant! Well done Sian! Those two wonderful men would be so proud of you! Llongyfarchiadau!I ran London last weekend, my first marathon at 50! Raising £2k for MDUK. For me running changed existing into living.
@sophieraworth@LondonMarathon I started running at 49, my 50th birthday present to myself is tomorrow’s London Marathon! £2k raised so far! You are true inspiration @sophieraworth
@Pam03847372 @LondonMarathon I’m an hour behind you, my first so great to hear tips about headphones. I think I’ll take them just in case, they were helpful during that quiet bits of my half marathon. Good luck.
@Power2InspireUK @QuiltersJunior It’s been great having you, the children have gained so much from the experience. From a personal point of view when I get mile 20 of the London Marathon in 18 days I’ll be drawing on the power of never giving up. Thank you!
