Ah I ended up doing the 55 minute pace, that's why you didn't see the handsome chap...
Was nice just to jog it slowly and not knock my pan out, ended up doing 54 minutes and a bit, picked up too much speed on the downhill sections!

Well done!

1/2 Marathon for me there. The organisation at the start and finish will be a million times better organised than yesterday.

I'm aiming for about 13st 4lbs which puts me nicely in the 'ideal' section of the BMI - all I've been doing is being a bit more careful with what I eat and drink, and doing some exercise. I actually made it to the gym twice last week.

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?

You must be so proud. I have been able to go back to walking as well since last week and so far no pain and it feels so good. I cant go to the gym as I'm not allowed to do heavy exercise but just walking alone is a big plus for me.

I did some running - mostly running away from the staff when they caught me sniffing the bicycle seats in the ladies section

Yup, that'll free up some spare time for more saddle sniffing.

Re: Who Is Getting Fit This Year?

Me I have been doing for 2 years now

I'm 181 CM tall ( Just under 6 foot)

Starting weight was 107 LB (around 7 stone) = BMI 13.5

As of today im at 141 LB (arround 10 stone) = BMI 19.3

Gained 34 lb between '09 and '11

Target is to get to 160 LB which would give me a BMI of 22

Only another 19 LB to go
