I do 3 minimum when I go. I am going more regularly now, probably twice a week on average. When I was fitter, I could do 5 easier than I do the 3 now and I know that is down to the extra 2 stone im carrying.

I hate running in the flat and like the struggle to get up hills. Someruns my legs burn and I will walk when it gets to the point that O wouldnt be able to run again for a week or so if I carried on but any hills I will challenge myself not to stop until im over the brow of the hill, even if it means slowing a bit so I dont have to stop. Thats more a mental thing, so when iv done it I know I can do it and I can push myself.
