As you get older you often need more recovery time before you are ready to go again.
My Garmin 620 over estimates the recovery time needed.
Watch out for dogs that are not controlled by their owners
It is always necessary to enter beforehand
are shortcuts allowed and would anyone notice
No and probably not.
Making outlandish claims about your future performance will lead to ridicule.
and you will always have to listen to the old guys telling you that when they were younger the got there so much faster than you can............
and to be a real runner you had to be much harder and faster back then
I once entered in 2011 . . . didn't withdraw until 2012!
Not to mention doing it without all the gadgets that youngsters rely on these days.
you get better at it if you do it 4 or 5 times a week.
How long before you can consider doubling up.....
Lycra can be good. Even if you feel a tit in it.
Its ok if everyone is feeling a tit at the same time
depends how understanding your partner is.
If you are last the conditions might be a bit sloppy
there are always some looser(s).
for the more popular event you might require a ballot to get a go. If you are unsuccessful dont bleat and moan about how unfair it is, it ruins it for those that get in.
if you have a good sob story someone might give you a charity entry
if you have £2000 you are guaranteed a go
Although failure to cough up afterwards can lead to a ban.
Oh yes the pros can make a lot of money
Phew. I'm a bit hot and sweaty. Just finished a 2 hour session. Really... 2 hours non-stop. I got a bit bored in the middle part.. it just seemed all too repetitive. On and on. I was glad when it was all over.
Sometimes you love it and sometimes you just think f*uck it!!
If you like to go long and slow, a nice 5-6 hour session should keep you happy
CheesyRider?
Why does that name feel so right for this thread?
My mate always brags about his flexibility. Always blowing his own horn!
Im always extremely stiff at the beginning but noticed i loosen up almost floppy for anything over 30 mins
There are times when you've pushed too hard and ended up with an injury. When that happens it just sucks
Starts saving up my £2k .... Do I really need this much?
