Best crack on with some training.

Sunday April 11th for Bluemoom Virtual Half Marathon.

That will be tough. I've managed 16k this year, and was pretty exhausted at the end of it.

Would Sat 10th be acceptable as I'm normally pretty busy on Sundays with other stuff?

Im gonna take inspiration from a bloke near me who ran 100k for charity on Satursday. 10k loop he did it 10 times over 12 hours. If he can do that, i can train and drag my ass around a half marathon.

It all goes there automatically when I arrive home after a run. Garmin watch > Garmin app > Strava by the time I'm out of the shower.

I was hoping for last place this time - unless we have age adjusted times.

Great set of times but for me the ‘winner’ is the person who took the most off their PB. Doesn’t matter the overall time, they are the ones who’ve done the best.

My PB is 48.33 and I managed to do 5k in 24 minutes before I stopped and walked home. Does that make me the winner?

@gaz76 , on it's way soon

Ah there is an option to defer it. I use the Garmin Fenix 6. Although only time its deferred an upload is due to not being connected to my wifi.

Could be a good idea that, age related times

I suffer from all sorts from running, shin splints, burning sensation underneath my feet which Plantar fasciitis is symptoms of.

Been complaining of issues with my shins etc for months, finally seen my local physio and now next week seeing a podiatrist near me to look at insoles for shoes etc.

Enjoyed the 10k on Sunday. Ended up with a time of 51:47.

Considering I'd been laying flags all day I'm pretty happy with that. It's nice getting likes from other people in the group. For some reason, it makes running way more positive when you know your hard work is being acknowledged!

I feel like this is a joke that I'm not smart enough to work out.

Asking because I’ve been doing 5 miles a day walk for the last 7 weeks,this last week I’ve been crippled on hands and knees up the stairs etc, bottom of my feet are like I’ve broke bones in them sooooo painful pal

Get ice packs to put under your feet when lying down on the couch and that, I bought some gel insoles off amazon aswell.

Might be worth looking at your footwear aswell fella.

I get a little buzz out of other runners waving too you, or saying good luck as you pass them.

Two very good looking women did this to me when running through Bramhall sunday, suddenly had a spring in my step :)
