@Leonie Mcnulty Thank you! Appreciate you arranging this for us :) x
@Amy Johnston I added you on NRC did it come up? U have to accept first and then I think I can set it up 😊
@Amy Johnston Yay you go queen!! So happy to see fellow runners here! I try to run 3 times a week but vary the distances depending on how I'm feeling after the workouts as I try to fit in at least 3 of those a week and the legs can definitely ache 🤣 i would definitely recommend some yoga in between (which I should probably start again myself..) to loosen yourself out! Would love to do a virtual run! Hit me up on Strava 🏃♀️
And generally if any of you guys get shin splints I've been using calf compression sleeves on my legs for the past few months and they've really helped!
And onrunning do fantastic running trainers if you don't have any special conditions (ie you need loads of support, very arched feet etc), they are pricey but really good!
@Jenny Wilson thanks I'll def check out those calf compressions- my legs get sore on abs off especially since I added the workouts!
@Leonie Mcnulty - thank you! Challenge accepted! I'll do my first in the morning !
Hey queens! Running used to be my only exersice. I got into it about 6 years ago and really enjoy it. I normally run twice a week but with the weather and all of the QDQ classes I have only run once a week this year but want to increase this. Would love to be part of the challenges on the Nike app. The competitiveness in me will get me out more!
Great idea ladies and fab to hear so many finding or getting back into running!
@Lauren Murdoch send me your email address I'll add you to the challenge! I only run once a week now so I'm hoping to up it to another day too 😅
@Niamh Byrne on running shoes I always go for Asics you can get really good ones that last a really long time for less money than Nike.
@Leonie Mcnulty fab I'm laurenm31@hotmail.co.uk I hope my app is linked to that. Thanks!
Ohh it's on ladies lol!!! Can't wait 😜
@Lauren Murdoch yes I found u😅 once u accept I can add you to the challenge 😁
Woohoo! Started this morning, thanks so much @Leonie Mcnulty !!
Really looking forward to joining a virtual team with you all. Almost like a new challenge we can create for ourseles and it's a nice excuse to get ourseles out of the house now that the weather is getting nicer and the evenings are brighter.
@Leonie Mcnulty Sorry haven't been on the forum as much over the past couple of days, works been a bit mad. Thanks I've just seen your request on the app now :)
@Jenny Wilson Thanks for the advice on the running shoes and shin splints - really good to know :) Would be amazing to get to a point of running 3 times a week! Good on you for fitting it in with the workouts. I definitely need to start getting into yoga again. My muscles seem to be sore all the time and yoga really helps. It's fitting it all in! (If only you could get paid to do hobbies all day!)
Oh yeyyy, I'd love to get involved in this. My email is leannedoyle409@gmail.com I think this is a great idea 👏
@Clairecluck1 oh ye are on it!! 🏃♀️🏃♀️
I'll need to get moving today 😆😆
@Leonie Mcnulty Nothing like a bit of healthy competition! LOL!
Had a nosy on the app this morning and the leaderboard definitely gave me the kick I needed! Just went on my first run for this challenge. Actually excited to do this with you all - it's nice that it has come just at the end of the Spring Challenge. The Nike app seems really good too. Good luck ladies! x
@Amy Johnston 🙈🙈🙈 I need to get moving 🙈🙈🙈 I'll blame the weather and I need a kick in the bum 🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣
I actually hadn't used the Nike running app before but it's actually a great idea. I'm very hit or miss with running and I feel it will definitely keep me more accountable. I definitely wouldn't have went for a run in the rain yesterday only I had the challenge to motivate me. Thanks so much for setting it up Leonie
