  • 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.

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
