Oh surprising! Should have guessed when the press release about Jasmin Paris went out yesterday!

Other than swimming, can anyone recommend good cross training for a hip flexor injury? I need to rest it for two weeks apparently, then have a half marathon on the 26th and would like to keep a bit of fitness going.

I did but really appreciate the thought, very generous. And thank you @Airhead for the short-run encouragement, it's taken me a few days to process. I realise I've been thinking that if I'm unable to run 5k I'm not a 'proper' runner but you're right, 3k a day is 3k more a day that I was doing this time last year and I think it's a practice I could keep up too. Really appreciate that 'lightbulb' moment. Even if I don't make the 5k I'd be happy with that practice.

I've been doing it every morning but it's taken some work to stay injury free. Stretching properly or using a percussion massager is absolutely necessary for me.
As far as running 5k. I managed a 10k charity run having run daily 3k's only, just slowed my runs for a couple of weeks and broke it down into 3k sections.
Short distance means you can focus on your gait and posture too.
1500m is a classic race distance :)

BM is still the most confusing thing in the world, completely unaccesable as a spectator, completely unfinishable as a participant!
In other news I’m really struggling for motivation, Brighton was supposed to be a spring challenge aiming for a relatively slow time, but after Wokingham that target time is a walk in the park, and I’m not interesting upping that, so now feeling like I can cruise the next few weeks…
10 miles at marathon pace tomorrow will hopefully give me the kick up the arse I need!

Has anyone on here heard of or used Charge Running?

She is doing well!
-
Indeed, last lady standing and in the final five! Fingers crossed she can make the fun run! Would be incredible if she makes the cut off to go beyond that and goes for lap 4...

One runner had to tap out as the wind had blown a page from his pack.

Heartbreaking.
John Kelly lost his clip belt with his pages in, spent 3hrs on hillside looking for them in the undergrowth, gave up, started walking back to quit and immediately found it on the nice open trail at the top of the hill. Still he finished the lap but cba'd to carry on at that point as his 5 laps would be impossible then.
