I did the full one. No half measures. It was lush though - Didn't you do the half last year as well?

Never been a fan of running,  but that's probably to do with my build. I was a good 800m runner when I was younger and also a good cross country runner. Walking,  particularly fell walking is what I enjoy,  as well as cycling,  but when I run I definitely pound the pavement  Smiley. Prefer swimming,  weight lifting and boxing...... and pubbing.

Anyone else use mapmyrun? Use it to track my workouts and find it very useful, so struggling to find good routes near work.

I use Strava, similar app, I like the fact that it gives you split times against yourself running the same route in the past.

I use a garmin watch. Don't like carrying a phone while running, especially in this weather. But I've used runkeeper before. Similar. Works well.

Yeah I use nike +.  Its allright.  I dont really have a frame of reference as I don't use anything else.  Basically tells me how far I've been, how long its taken, how long each K is, that sort of thing.  And plays my playlist.  Allows me to post it boastfully on facebook and twatter.  Cant really say much else about it.
