  • 7 months later...

It looks like this thread was started in January, however I would be keen to join other running moms now.


midivydale, Convex, Mrs_Glennie, we could start a new group if you are up for it?



I have be thinking about getting back running recently, my son is 5 months old now and im just about ready to do it but as its getting dark I'll really need an push to get out. havent run since pre-pregnancy so its going to be tough.


Week day evenings around 7.15 - 7.30 (once baby is asleep) gets my vote

Definitely up for it!


I tried running from my office to daughter's nursery this evening, got very odd looks from nursery staff as I arrived all sweaty in my shorts!


My husband is home at 6.45 and baby normally in bed by 7 so could be out and running by about 7.30 I reckon.

Can we make it later, say 745? Baby goes down by 730 here and then I would need to run up the hill.


Tuesday looks good? I will only be here for one and then I'm off for a while but hopefully you guys will still be going when I get back!


I've got a running book somewhere with a 6 week plan in it will try and dig it out.

Great !!! So it looks like were a group of 7. (Mrs_Glennie; jennifaah; amydown; MOTHERSMEETINGS; midivydale; Convex; Dibden)


Shall we meet next Tuesday at 7.45pm outside the Dulwich Library and see how we go from there.

Convex if you can find that 6week programme that would be a good start. I followed one before and it was useful, I will see if I can dig mine out too.

here is a link to the programme I followed when I first started running and I think I'm back to that stage now.

It assumes you run 3 times a week but give you an idea of how to build it up.

    • What an extraordinarily selfish post. Even in "the middle of London", believe it or not, there are people with buggies, in wheelchairs, with mobility aids, with visual disabilities, with shopping trolleys, with young children holding their hands,  or who otherwise find it hard to negotiate blocked pavements. "Young people" (I'm sure this isn't just young people) can "enjoy the local amenities" within the boundaries of the "amenities", and without making life difficult for others. Many of those others have probably lived around here long before these "young people" moved in. This is a residential area with shops. It isn't a pedestrianised area in the West End.
    • Posting this here rather than starting another COVID  thread, as there are already two, but admin please move if it's inappropriate. I've never had a bad reaction previously except a sore arm, but I've woken up feeling headachy and achy  and quite unwell. I've had to cancel two appointments,  and my dentist receptionist said this reaction can happen even if you have been ok before, and it  can take three days to go away. Wondering what other people's experiences have been. Obviously it's possible I've got something unrelated to the jab, but it seems a strange coincidence if so.
    • As mlteenie says, it can be open earlier than 'advertised', and often is, but you can't rely on it.
