Would anyone like a board for running threads?

I'd love one - there are other really busy running fora online, but I'd love to be able to get a bit more running chat from MN.

Please say Yay below if you agree, and I'll report this post in a hopeful way Smile.

Look at the millions of people on the ‘runmummyrun’ website

Look at what a big business running for women actually is

Race for life to London Marathon..... it’s a BIG thing

Yes mumsnet has too many topics....but running has a huge following. Cull some of the ghost town topics but give us our topic instead?

Sorry, I meant the ‘runmummyrun’ Facebook page

What Veterinari said.
I like running threads staying with other Exercise threads.

I dont think having a specific running area will necessarily equate to more traffic and/ or threads? Can't imagine people are put off from posting just cause we are the Exercise area.

It would be a different matter if the millions of running threads were getting swallowed up by the many millions of other exercise threads, but thats not the case.

The exercise area is not too busy, it's just about right to be honest. Taking running out if it would leave it mostly empty. And like the pp said, theres lots of natural cross over between running and other threads.

Yay

BernardBlacksHangover · 12/11/2017 09:13

Yes please!

I’m not running atm, but would like to start after I’ve had my baby (January-February). Would be really useful to have a board for running chat and advice.

BernardBlacksHangover · 12/11/2017 09:14

I guess I could just use the exercise area though as pp says...

AuntieStella · 12/11/2017 09:16

Bernard

idc, try the app 'Zombies, Run'

It's a version of C25K with added incentive....

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 12/11/2017 09:17

I'd like a separate running thread please.

chipscheeseandgravy · 12/11/2017 19:06

yes please
