The Running Thread (formerly How fast can you run a 5k?)
VLC86 replied to Sly's topic in General Chat
Shook your hand on London Road, not shocked you were knakered if them gloves were anything to go by. Thought you had been digging up your nans flower bed. -

Thought I was going to chunder up new walk but was shocked at how flat it was overall. The hill in Birstal I think it was wasn’t ideal either. -

All done. Luckily my knee held up until I stopped running. 1:40.56. Hope everyone else got on alright. -

I’m heading there with a hose pipe as we speak. -

What you thinking, just carrying on and finishing at the same point? I’d considered running home after the 10k course. -

Yeah 100% standard. -

Sounds unlikely doesn’t it but will see what they say tomorrow. -

Anyone had the email from half marathon? Looks unlikely to go ahead. With the current state of my knee that’s a relief but it’s a bit shitty if they cancel. -

I’ve got Hoka Rocket One I think but they are 4 years old and falling to bits so getting some more for Christmas. Would be interested to see what people recommend as it’s a minefield with me running anything from 5k to probable marathons. -

I’ve recently bought a Garmin Forerunner 965 but as above it was quite a bit more than £200 and you may struggle to get one you can add music to for that. There is a Forerunneer 265 which is around £400 I think but doesn’t have music downloads (I think) and some GPS features. -
It looks like it doesn’t it, but it’s got the right Admiral label for originals. It’s either an original that someone stuck our logo and Walkers on or it’s a prototype that was meant to be our shirt but admiral pulled out, which it could be as they disappeared the season after we had Walkers with that logo style.

Still getting over this cold but thought I would run 10k at the pace I’m targeting on Sunday. Absolutely not happening if that’s anything to go by. -
Jord has had a nightmare, Okoli good in the air?

Anyone recognise this? It’s either a prototype or an original admiral shirt with our badge and sponsor printed on

Only here as I thought it would be another thread about Steve Cooper.

I’d love to agree but all I can see is Patson Daka slicing the ball behind him from about 3 yards out at Plymouth. If that’s a good Prem striker then sign me up.

What Game Are You Playing At The Moment ?
VLC86 replied to LeicesterBran's topic in Music and Gaming
I played it with the intention of being as linea as possible so only really played the main missions. I got bogged down in the extra stuff at my first two attempts and never finished it. -

Oh shit, I didn’t even realise they had different endings depending on how it was played. I’ll spent a few hours on YouTube tonight. -

I can imagine it does. I’ve pushed to do 1k in about 4 1/2 minutes and that’s enough for me. -

It’s not a question of whether I’ll do it ( I ran a marathon with zero training) but probably going to be more about how grim it will be to try to get the time I want.
