Resilient Runners – The Dolly Mixtures

Resilient Runners is a series of blogs about the brilliant ideas that our running community have been coming up with to keep each other going in these unprecedented times . . .

The Dolly Mixtures

A Big thank you to The Dolly Mixtures Welshpool who have shared these ideas with us.

Elaine from the group has told us that ‘the Dolly mixtures ladies are doing great! They were ¾ of there through the couch to 5K course when they made the decision to cancel, but many of the ladies carried on to reach their 5K target! The ladies were encouraged to share their progress on Facebook, which really seemed to help!’

Here are some of the other Brilliant ideas that the girls have shared…

-They have been encouraging people to doing a daily mile in their garden on Sunday mornings at 9am and Monday evenings at 6pm (the time the dollies normally meet – a great way to keep some routine)

– The girls have also done the sunflower challenge.

– We love the run and shape challenge too!

Elaine told us that ‘keeping in touch with each other is definitely an important part to motivate each other.’

A big thank you for sharing your fabulous ideas!

 

Another Resilient Runners blog post will be coming your way next Tuesday.
