Bupa 10k's - can you run/walk?

I just asked the same question! What wave are you in?

? I've just seen and replied ?

I'm most definitely in the pink wave.... in fact if there was any wave less... I'd be in that one! You?

I'm in pink too! I know I'm just some internet random but want to meet up and run/walk together?

I've only done one BUPA 10k and it was a big one in Hyde Park, but lots and lots of people walked/run-walked/did it pushing buggies - all sorts. If you're worried about the route being reopened to traffic, or about there being marshalls and water and stuff, check their website or give them a call - that info should all be available.

So from that PoV, it really isn't an issue. However, if you can only run 2k and would then need a long walk break, I'd question whether you're really ready. I don't know what your health issues have been - if walking briskly for 10k is something you'd normally be able to do, then go for it - if you were workiung up to it still I might give it a miss this time.

Replied on the other thread - also don't forget not to knacker yourself totally just to get round!

Thanks all.

I'd have definitely been able to do it a few months ago - struggled a bit running all the way maybe ... actually maybe not (who can say now though harumph?) I think perhaps I should either go out for a gentle run this evening or a longer hammering on the treadmill tomorrow (where I can track distance properly etc ) and see how it goes. If only it was a 5K and then I wouldn't be having a wobble.

Right - plan of action is this... go out tonight or tomorrow and then make a decision and if it's F.A.B then I'd defo love to meet up with fellow hitcher and run/walk together xx

Thanks all - am feeling far more positive xxxxxxxxxx
