Might be posture/slouching? I get it on longer runs. When i did the half marathon i was finding my arms were throbbing just from holding them in position to shamble along!!

Dont know what causes it, I'm ok on a cross trainer, and cycling. Tend to stick to them now.

I did think it was a posture issue, might take Clints advice and see a physio.Might be posture/slouching? I get it on longer runs. When i did the half marathon i was finding my arms were throbbing just from holding them in position to shamble along!!
Thanks!Bloody hell I think that a great time, I did it a few years ago in 2.8mins hardest part for me was coming down the Tamworth road and left onto Long lane ( I think it’s called ) and then back up it and back onto the Tamworth road
They'd hopefully be able to suss it out for you fairly swiftly, might need to go private if you want anyone's attention soon though!I did think it was a posture issue, might take Clints advice and see a physio.

Haha, tell me about it. It's around a 6 week wait for a GP appointment around here atm.They'd hopefully be able to suss it out for you fairly swiftly, might need to go private if you want anyone's attention soon though!
Nonsense isn't it. I had it with my knee, weeks to get in, weeks to get to see a specialist, more weeks for a scan. Oh it's too late to operate it's healing itselfHaha, tell me about it. It's around a 6 week wait for a GP appointment around here atm.

Exactly. I rang up for an appointment for my daughter and was told there was at least a 5 week wait. I said well thanks but she'll be better by then.Nonsense isn't it.

We can do that, but all you get is a phone call from the duty GP. To "assess" your problem. Then they tell you to make a standard appointment.Weeks to see a GP?? Bloody hell. We have to ring at 8am on the day to see if we can get through early enough to get an appointment and it's pot luck basically.
Jog on rob!Sorry all, I've stumbled into the wrong thread!

Sorry, I don't understand, Forum?Forum
I'm a committed runner. Started in my teens and was good at cross-country, but then wasted a lot of years playing Sunday football and drinking. Got back into regular running when I took up Muay Thai seriously. I'm now a Fell-runner (race over the mountains of the Lakes/Wales/Scotland on unmarked courses, where there is the element of navigation to also worry about, not to mention weather, terrain, etc..... in my opinion the greatest sport in the world!).
Also run occasionally on the roads, and more regularly at cross-country. Run for Cov Godiva... surely they have a shout with CCFC and CRFC for being the greatest sports team in the city.... much like the rugby team, they were top of the tree in the 60's and 70's. Not quite at the very top level now, but certainly at a high level and a match for the other famous teams in the area, Tipton Harriers, Birchfield, Cheltenham, etc. I believe in the national cross-country we were about 30th team (with a somewhat depleted team) and in the Birmingham Cross-country league (arguably the top league in the country) we were 6th in the top division.
On the roads my best 5km/Parkrun is 18:41 and my best 10km is around 39mins although that was on a cross-country course, so muddy, hilly, and not conducive to a fast time.
Long distances and off-road running are what get me going though... rather than being a natural athlete I'm more of a battler and prefer arduous terrain (preferably near vertical) to bring the speedsters down to my level.
Tomorrow is the Coventry Way Ultra... a 40 mile network of footpaths around Cov. Starts and finishes in Meriden, and passes through Kenilworth, Stonleigh, Ryton, Wolston, Brinklow, Bedworth, Corley.... there'll be about 250 racing... a combination of runners and walkers... although distances like this go beyond going out there and running as hard as possible.
Well the Cov Way was painful. Went well for 28 miles or so (Ansty-Barnacle area) then had a massive wobble which lasted until about Corley. This was dangerous as it happened as we passed through Bedworth which is where I live, so the temptation to bin it off was real!
But dug in and saw the job out.... 6hrs54.... not seen the results yet, but if the past results are anything to go by, could see me anywhere from 4th-12th.... won't know until results are published as it was a time-trial type event where you pick your own start time...

You are running like a machine, I've seen people who can barely walk wearing the t shirts. They do look fun, are you going to need any special training?Anyone done a wolf run ,me and my wife are doing one in September. I’m abit worried about doing the obstacles but wil give it a go for a laugh

Cheers nick it’s stuff like money bars and stuff like that I’ll stuggle with as I’m still overweight, I don’t think I’ll need any specific training and I think you can run around certain obstacles anywayYou are running like a machine, I've seen people who can barely walk wearing the t shirts.

According to my wife it’s out near Hinckley way, she’s organising it with some of her workmates and is on about doing it for Charideewhere's that Daz?
My mate tried to rope me in to one a while ago. Think it was in the Black Country somewhere.
