Running

true, they still get to get lost in wild forests as 'work' though, lucky bastards

I did the pb at track, I'm saying I reckon I've got a little more in the tank in a race.

5km Race on the track would do you?

Smashed Snowdon Marathon even if I do say so myself :D went into it knowing it would have to go perfectly for me to get a good for age time for London.

Finished in 3hr 14 min 41 seconds so chuffed to bits :) 73rd overall and new pb by 15 minutes, so a good day.

To make it even better my wife was 9th woman and first in her age group :)

good effort dude^^^^ beat my ass anyday on marathon in hill country, well done

Congrats Jones, cracking time.

I struggled round Beachy Head yesterday, a measly 2 minutes quicker than last year and come away with two dodgy knees. Was good fun as always though.

Well done Jones & Mrs Jones.

Aw. Just thought it might be agood idea to smother the legs in wapha embrocation post hard race.
Will see how it goes.
Never put that stuff on your bollocks by accident though. .....
Aaaaaaaaah

@Pifko Peters route stuff https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153435773552715&set=np.5812255.100008050323781&type=1&theater&notif_t=photo_tag

Looks ace.

What's that? Content unavailable or something?

@Pifko youre pressing the wrong buttons

Facebook can do one. My legs hurt.

That was nicer, definitely seemed easier. A whole minute faster than the previous 6k run despite feeling roughly the same perceived effort (and slightly lower HRavg). Now looking forward to the rest of the week off (half term).

Penciling in first Parkrun (Wimbledon Common) on 22nd November (I'll be happy with a 28:00). Aiming to get my thrice weekly runs up to 10k by around New Year and then 14k by February. Then I'll work on speed/strength and shifting the rest of the weight.

^good effort! keep at it.

Results up.
You were 98th @1:26:50. I was 157th @ 1:31:15.

Can't believe I was only 4 mins slower than you over 10M. Not bad for 1500ft of climbing though.

fuckin slow i reckon

both of us that is

had to cut short todays session. legs felt like they were refusing to move. might well be a forced rest day tomorrow. hopefully only a blip before Gosport half.

if i'm free i might come and run this too. have stuck a reminder in my calendar.

it can get quite muddy there so don't wear your best shoes.

@Greenbank @HatBeard I might be up for a forum parkrun outing too. All south londoners should come. Fuck it, all londoners!

I'll probably still get run over, but hey- at least I'll look like an alien when it happens.

I have trail shoes (Saucony Peregrine 4) for when it's not dry. They love the gloopy stuff.
