Blogs are online logs or diaries that you can set-up free of charge and are great tool to track your training, boost your performance and kick-start your motivation even on the hardest of training days. Blogs can be used to record virtually anything and our online training partner realbuzz.com has set up a BUPA Great Run training blog dedicated solely for you.

Why start a BUPA Great Run training blog?

Keeping a blog can act as an update of your progress – just think of it as an online training log. You can include times, weather conditions and heart rate (if you use a monitor) all of which can help you learn and develop through your training. Alternatively, if you want to keep it simple, you can use your blog to record how you feel during your sessions, the kit you are most comfortable in or even the best pre-training snack you have discovered.

You can also browse other peoples' training blogs to find out how they are getting on with their sessions, how they are progressing and maybe pick up a few training tips, and if you want to – you can even add comments.

Why not give it a go? Each entry you add is one step further towards your goal – go on, track your training and start a blog today!
