    Wilmslow 10k this morning. It’s really well organised. Defo’ looking to do it, or the HM next year. Went round in 47:37.

    Did the Daffodil 10k in Stockport today. Managed to just sneak under 48 minutes. Preparation wasn’t helped by a 14 month old baby bringing germs and bugs back from nursery and passing them on. It’s a good little race though that I’d not done before but will hopefully do again. Thinking of...

    T I’m only jealous as I’ve been running on and off for years and my times are similar to yours at the moment. That’s great running. You’ll have to get under 23 next week!

    To go from struggling to run for 5 minutes solid, to a 23:07 5k only 5 weeks later is extremely impressive. Well either that or your telling porkies! Keep it up and you’ll be faster than Gaz by Christmas!

    Made my debut at Wythenshawe parkrun this morning. It’s a flat course so was good to see where I’m at. Went round in 22:30. No chance I’m getting close to 20 minutes this year.

    A hungover Cardiff parkrun for me this morning. Luckily it was relatively shadey and the flattest parkrun I’ve ever done.

    Interesting about it being in your head. You do realise someone will read that post and think you’re 69! I think I see you running everywhere on Strava!

    Yeah I quite often do parkrun. I’ll find a flat one to go at after a few weeks of following a training plan and see where I’m at.

    Not following a plan currently. I run or cycle a few times a week. I would do a sub 22 one over the next few weeks to try and get from 23 to 22 by end of September. I reckon that is achievable. That would leave 3 months to get from 22 down to sub 20. Not sure if that is realistic. I’ll aim...

    Does anyone know how realistic is it to be able to run a sub 20 minute 5k this year, if my current 5k time would be around 23 minutes? I’m a 40 years old with a bit of excess around the waist. My fastest previous was probably around 21 minutes but we’re talking 6 years ago. I kind of feel like...

    Noel Galllagher at Wythenshawe Park

    Ha ha, I went in there beforehand. They shut the front doors as they couldn’t cope.

    Noel Galllagher at Wythenshawe Park

    I went, it was decent. He had a life size cardboard cut out of Pep on stage and also dedicated ‘Going Nowhere’ to Man United.

    I’ve used these training plans before and and found them really useful. I used their sub 45 minute 10k a few years back and ran 43.08 on the day. Below is the link to the sub 20 minute 5k https://www.runningfastr.com/5k-training-plan/sub-20-5k-training-plan/ I’m not at the stage to do the sub...

    crypto interest

    I learnt this lesson that hard way and bought a bunch of ALT coins a few years back when they were outperforming Bitcoin. Daily swings in price of 10% to 20% seemed normal. Although, I can’t say I enjoyed holding Bitcoin during 2022. 2023 hasn’t been too bad though. If history repeats itself...

    Update - Have another NowTV Voucher

    This gone now? I could certainly make use of it if still available please. If not, where did you get it from?

    Fantasy Premier League - FPL 2023/24

    This looks decent to me. I think to begin with it’s best to have a few big boys in there & a few players that will likely stay in your team all year. Then fill the others slots depending on form and fixtures, which looks like you’ve done. Get off to a decent start and your half way there. I...

    Will prices ever drop

    Most prices won’t drop, they’ll just go up slower.

    Mortgage deal ending

    We did ours early recently and the new rate didn’t kick in until the old mortgage came to the end of its term. We still have a few more months at the old lower rate even though the new mortgage is sorted.
