To me it sounds like an elites only (possibly with Champs places) event of some description.
It is sounding more like an elite race only if London have a race,frustrating waiting for you guys.
Did my usual after work loop last night and did a 5k for a club mob match tonight,managed 18;28 so a big 1 second quicker than last month,like most I find it really hard racing by myself though.
.No MRI news today annoyingly.
Good effort on the 5k Ian.
40m with 5 x 4m at tempo off 1m jog. Reps came in around 6.40mm, physically my legs were pretty tired by the last rep, cv wise was ok. Just need to build that endurance up.
Ian - great 5k effort.
Rumours abound but it's business as usual for now.
16 miles this morning. 4 mile warm-up followed by 12 steady miles.
Nice session, Gul. We keep going...
Low mojo this morning but managed to get out for 15 on the trails. Very humid conditions made it hard work at times but job done.
Nice longish runs both, i long to just go long! Though with tomorrows run I'll get nearly 25m this week.
On hols Monday to Friday so bit of a cut back.
Booked my hotel for London in April last night in advance of what's to come Tuesday and loads of others booking. I can cancel it without charge upto 28 days from mara weekend so no risk.
Low mojo again here but managed a 5 mile recovery to bring 46 up for the week.
Getting miffed at Garmin being down. Got 3 runs I need to upload. I know there's a manual way of uploading the watch file to Strava but can't be bothered to faff about.
Ransomware attack is the assumption online, I wonder how much it is and if they'll pay it?
Good work battling against the low mojo G-D.
Hope the MRI brings good news DT and enjoy the break.
A good 16 miles there Gul.
That's a nifty 5K Ian - bodes well.
A steady 20 miles late afternoon. Although cooler than of late, the legs were not feeling very gazelle like. So a bit of a labored effort just squeezing under 8.00 m/m pace. 81 miles for the week.
I've not received my elite entry for London yet. Perhaps this will arrive tomorrow!
SBD-Another good long run and week.
OO-Nice late break,you picked a good option rather than running.
Gul-Another solid effort from you.
17 miles in total today,ran 8 miles to meet daughter who we haven't seen since Jan because of Covid then we ran 9 together and ended in a nice cafe having lunch.I was wary about a long one before my 20 on Tuesday but running with meant it was about 1 min slower than usual so shouldn't take too much out of me.71.1 for the week so another record and my 3rd 70+ in the last 5 weeks.
DT - coming along nicely. Enjoy the hols and hope you get the thumbs up very soon.
OO - 53 miles and fish, chips and beers sounds great
SBD - another cracking week.
Ian - great you could run with your daughter and good miles for the week.
Took a rest Sunday, so 63 for the week. 8 slow miles to start the week today
Just noticed that Garmin appears to be uploading data again even though I am still getting the server maintenance message.
My Garmin data is all back and loading.
Scraped 50 miles last week, but got this one off to a good start with a plodding 16 miler in the rain today.
14 mile progressive run today from 9:34(!) to 7:08/m. The light is starting to get a bit dim when setting off now
Started out on a 10 miler this morning and was curious as to why the Garmin didn't vibrate after the first mile. A quick glance at the watch showed that it wasn't recording distance despite having latched on to the satellites.
After some faffage I gave up and just did the distance over a slightly longer route (10.70). I took a time check at a roundabout and worked out my average pace from there so I could record the time on feet, wasn't really bothered about the pace but it came out at 7.18.
Not sure if the watch has gone weird after the recent attempts to sync it with the App during the ransomware episode? The app is still not syncing correctly despite the activities being shown. I entered a manual entry on Garmin Connect on my laptop and it has popped up in the app despite never seeming to complete a clean sync.
We keep going...
Crappy run today,the planned 20 turned in to 11,legs felt drained and the wind was really strong,which didn't help.A very gradual 4 week taper starts from here.
8 here- blown about like a twig but felt strong.
Gul - i always start off pretty slowly too, whilst everything starts moving again.
