Arducius-
I don't feel your updates and consistent progress get enough kudos in this thread, so kudos!

Ta. But we'll see how I progress this year.
280 days until the end of the year. That's 40 weeks. 0.5kg/week weight loss = 20kg gone. That would put me on 74kg where, theoretically according to fellrnr.com and almost certainly pushing the bounds of extrapolation, a 25:19 at 94kg means a 20:40 at 74kg.
(74kg is still at the upper end of "normal" for my height.)

20kg overweight, BMI of 31.
Somehow I just did a 5k in 25:19 (only about a minute off my parkrun record back when I was doing a lot more running and was 10kg lighter)
HR was 165 avg and 179 max but it takes ~90s for my HR to get up to speed, it was a fairly steady effort and the last 3 minutes averaged 172bpm, so I pushed about as hard as I wanted to.
Very happy with that. Now I can do a couple of really easy runs and then give blood at the weekend knowing that I can take it easy next week too.
Really got me wondering what I'll be able to do if/when I do lose the excess 20kg.
