  1. Coros Pace 3 is a fabulous watch and great value for money.
  2. Ahhhhh good luck and I hope you hit your target! My issue is that I gauge my success on how many dogs I can stroke during a race
  3. Who is running Leicester half? Im torn between ‘racing’ and going for a PB or just having fun and clocking somewhere between 2:05-2:08ish
  4. My runs for this week are: 45 minutes recovery tomorrow after a race yesterday An hours session including 4 sets of 5 mins at just above half marathon plan with 2 minutes recovery Half an hour Thursday parkrun Saturday (casual easy 30 minute run) race day!
  5. It’s a home crowd sell-out so should be a good afternoon out. I think it’ll do the teenager good as well and remind her that city actually aren’t that bad…..
  6. Putting my interest out early as I’m sure it won’t make my ST sale day…I’ll be looking for 1 x adult and 1 x U16
  7. Hoping to go to Harborough Town v Bury (have just sent the other half down to the club to buy tickets) This will be my first ever trip to a Southern League ground.
  8. Last minute sign up to Leicester Half after a nightmare at Tissington Trail Half last weekend. Considering pushing for a PB although I’m not sure I can bank enough time before hitting New Walk
  9. You can wear bone conductors which are a great alternative.
  10. Tissington Trail Half tomorrow and I haven’t ran this far since Bosworth Half in June. It’s been nice of having a break in training cycles.
  11. There’s a whole app full of parkrun challenges! I’ve completed Leicestershire, nearly completed Nottinghamshire and Birmingham and only have a Q and a V to complete my alphabet. I hated parkrun when I first started attending as I used to constantly chase a time. Covid happened and now I dick about, talk to people, stroke dogs and head off somewhere decent for breakfast. I’m enjoying parkrun so much more than I did before.
  12. A few moments before the substitution he went to win the ball back and got up holding onto his calf.
  13. Best way of getting a long run in! Run to parkrun - parkrun - run home
  14. I walk for a few minutes before running. I’ve always been told that your first mile should be your slowest to give your legs/lungs/head a chance to warm up. If it’s parkrun and I’m in the mood for time chasing, I’ll always do a good 10 minute warm up jog to get the blood flowing
  15. He’ll never beat the OG that is Andy King
  16. My rough plan at the moment is to use it as a stopover for a couple of days before heading into Slovenia.
  17. I do one that is 6 hours of 4 mile out and backs (2 out 2 back) on the Humber Bridge. To be honest, boredom sets in before fatigue. The best thing I have learned is that walk any uphill/incline and steady pace the flat and downhills. Give it a go as they’re good fun!
  18. There’s this niggling feeling that I have that the uncertainty of the points deduction is having an affect on attitudes.
  19. Had seats selected and went to sold out before I could pay looking for 1 adult and 1 U17 please
  20. Has anyone been to Liechtenstein? I’m tentatively planning another European road trip and would like to know if it’s worth a stop over for a few days?
  21. I made a comment about this but then my child reminded me that some have to get trains home
  22. Yip. Only twice so far - 56K and 50 miles. Next year will be my first 100K followed by my first 24 hour
  23. I got odds of 4/1 on us to beat Tottenham on Monday
  24. I swapped from Apple to Garmin and then to Polar. I think it depends on what you’re doing running wise. My main reason for changing was for the battery life. The battery life on an Apple Watch wasn’t enough for 10/12 hour run recording whereas the Garmin battery life was. I now need a watch that will have enough battery for 24 hours and my Polar watch fits that criteria
