  • 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.

    • Someone had a worse day than you. Be grateful not to be involved.
    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
