Arrived in Aix en Provence yesterday for a few days. Anyone got any great tips for stuff to do and particularly where to watch Champions League final?

I agree about the horrible hill but generally I thought the route, organisation and weather were all good today. We ran together today. She wanted under 2:30 and managed 2:18, she was very happy. Well done to you.

Chester HM for me tomorrow morning with my daughter, looking forward to it.

I'm doing it but also a first timer, feedback would be good. I heard it's great views and support, especially early on and can be chaos at the finish because of the number of people.

No, I read that it's often 10 or 15% out but useful anyway. Does yours change? Mine always says 51, perhaps I need to put more effort in.

Hope it goes really well mate, all the best.

I did the Sence Valley parkrun near Ibstock for the first time today. Class morning for running, a decent route with a little hill and great volunteers 👍🏼👍🏼

It's the nearest away for me so will probably collapse and end up buying 🙈. See what happens tomorrow too

I gave mine up at the end of last season. Not missed it as much as I expected but then we have generally been sh*te. The main problem for me is lack of access to away tickets and the crazy price of matchday home tickets.

How many pens have we missed this season?!!!

I managed 1:39.20, my best for a few years. It took a lot of training though!

Liverpool Half Marathon tomorrow morning with 14,999 others for me. Forecast is for chilly drizzle so we'll see how it goes.

No but I've done it before. If the route is the same then the hill at around mile 11 is horrid. And a photographer sits on the top to take your picture!!! Having said that I quite enjoyed it and decent support on the roads. Edit-- forget all that, it's a completely new route!!

I'm looking at that for May/June, did you stay in Dumfries or somewhere else and how much touring around did you do?

19km this evening, went well. 2 weeks to my half marathon now so will ease off a little.
