apparently.... adding weight will allow you to burn more calories per mile, but only about 5-8 calories more per mile for every 10 pounds added... a man weighing 200lb would burn about 30calories for an extra 1/4mile walked at easy pace without weights...

Aha, thank you. A while ago I was actually trying to work this out, found the walking calculator but nothing to do with adding weight or not. I'm not too bothered about the caleries in themselves but it's interesting. It feels like putting a load across your shoulders while you walk works the core in some way but I've no info on that other than what pops into my head.

Hmmm. Ran for exactly 30 mins but only achieved 4.82Km. Is it possible that I'm not driving myself as much as I should in the knowledge that I'm not trying to prove anything to myself now? I dunno. It's a bit disappointing. :?

I did, Willy, yeah. Hoped it wouldn't have made that much difference. Salutary lesson I suppose.

Will put one in on Friday morning and see how that goes.

How's it going there? You on the mend?

Just done a 7 mile easy pace (8.45 per mile) but calf is still as tight as a drum. Got 18/19 miler to do at weekend so much stretching for the next couple of days for me.

Bruce - dont beat yourself up. You have occasional bad days during your progress - you doing the Park run again soon?

I'll probably do one in the next 2 or 3 weeks. Just not sure which one yet, trying to fit it around these long runs. I tell you, signing up for a marathon takes over your life :?

Aye GG. Easy peasy. Just go on and register, then print off the sheet of barcodes. Cut one out and take it to the parkrun of your choice. They give a beginners briefing before it starts re- the course and whatnot. You even get a brew and a KitKat at the end, too :)
