Hellooooo 5mad It would be lovely to run with you and cinnamon again Smile

We are going to be in the neighbourhood for the weekend, so it would be silly not to really wouldn't it? (and it would help me not overdo things at the party we've been invited to the night before Grin)

I have the 10 as well and it's fine. I just wanted something to measure distance etc accurately, unlike endomondo!

postmanpatscat · 29/06/2014 08:59

Another vote for the Forerunner 10 here!

vladthedisorganised · 29/06/2014 10:25

On the app so can't convert, but had to share last night's 12.3 miles.. almost up to HM distance!! A PB of 2 hours which I'm madly pleased with. Finished up in a shower of rain which was lovely. Felt so pleased when I saw the time that I was buzzing for ages. Now just need to stock up on more jelly snakes...

5madthings · 29/06/2014 10:33

Ohoneohtwoohthree remind me who you are on Fb again? And let us know what time you will sign up to for Marriott way, there are three starts, 11am 11:10 and 11:20 :)

vlad that's a cracking time well done!

I'm off to the Rainbow Run in a bit GrinGrinGrin

emummy · 29/06/2014 12:58

thursday hope you have a good time! Did 5k today, felt a bit slow and sluggish, never mind. Enjoyed standing outside to cheer on the commonwealth baton first, dcs had fun

cinnamongreyhound · 29/06/2014 13:05

Bleugh, what a hideous day!! I had 4 he's sleep so didn't go early for a run and was contemplating an early evening run but not if this weather continues, has been lobbing it down since 10 :(

karatekimmi · 29/06/2014 13:35

afternoon all, some awesome running taking place, the like of which I can only dream of!!

I did 8k running to and round the parkrun - getting a new PB of 29.15!! I was hoping for a sub 30, and was extremely chuffed with this!!

1782.2

Well done Karate, fab time!

Thuraday enjoy the rainbow run Smile.

Wow Vlad well done. I can't imagine being able to run HM distance, even though I'm doing one in October Shock.

OhOneOhTwoOhThree · 29/06/2014 14:07

vlad that's a fantastic time!

5mad - I've FB'd you Smile

cinnamon - make use of the rainy afternoon by signing up for Marriotts Way. I've gone for the 11:10 start Smile

Have a great rainbow run Thursday

Well done on your PB kimmi

BetsyBell · 29/06/2014 14:57

3rd run in four days! Just a short one to warm up for other stuff but 3k to add to total.

BetsyBell · 29/06/2014 14:59

ThursdayLast · 29/06/2014 16:20

standingonlego · 29/06/2014 18:52

Sirzy · 29/06/2014 19:51

Knackerelli · 29/06/2014 20:37

Hi everyone, some brilliant times! Can I add my very first cross country 10k? Am very much a road runner but managed 69:20. My legs are letting me know about it now though!

Sirzy · 29/06/2014 20:44

does anyone use a foam roller to stretch after runs?

OP posts:
OhOneOhTwoOhThree · 29/06/2014 21:01

Well done Knackerelli!

I would be interested to hear about foam rolling too - I think I have (self-diagnosed) IT band problems.

cinnamongreyhound · 29/06/2014 21:17

Well done knackerelli!!

A lot of my club mates swear by foam rollers.

I haven't entered yet OhOneOhTwoOhThree, will let you know :)

standingonlego · 29/06/2014 21:31

Adding knackerelli 10k and a cheeky Sunday evening 9.3k (strange distance, it was 1 hour!) takes us up to a grand total of 1907.5 - I think

standingonlego · 29/06/2014 21:33

I have a roller, off to inflict pain on myself now with it. They are good in an evil way (like Alan Rickman)

Sirzy · 29/06/2014 21:36

ooh only one day to get over the 2000km mark for June - going to be a challenge!

OP posts:
cinnamongreyhound · 29/06/2014 21:38

I'm not running again until Tuesday am so won't add anymore :(

postmanpatscat · 29/06/2014 22:06

Should be 1807.5 not 1907.5 so making 2000km even less likely!!
