Cheers Gaffer, managed to squeeze in a bonus Berlin Parkrun yesterday morning before heading back home :)

Time to rescue this thread from page 6! Berlin Marathon for me on Sunday and a first foray into overseas running. Conditions turned out to be perfect on the day and this translated into performance. Took just short of another eight minutes off my PB coming home in 3.14.38, the negative split of...

Was a good one for me though, my Parkrun PB of nearly three years finally beaten, took 19 seconds off my previous best and now down to 20.14. First in age category too along with a first visit to the 70's with AG @ 70.10. Pushing towards 500 Parkruns and still getting quicker :)

A big well done to everyone who took on or volunteered Brighton yesterday. A really good event and I'm a big fan of the course changes! Yesterday also went very well personally, a near six minute PB saw me come home in 3.22.16. Being a bit of a part time statto there's a few things that stood...

Having been highly impressed with the ill fortune suffered by NSC runners recently I thought I'd join the club. Came off my bike yesterday morning heading to work and have broken 6 ribs. Going to be a prolonged spell on the sidelines just as things were starting to click for the autumn season :(

Finally, a parkrun where no one quick turned up :D

A little late but here's my update from the BHM last weekend. Proving that every second really does count I bagged a 2 second PB with a time of 1.32.29. Completely unexpected, just went out quick (for me) and waited to crash and burn, which never really materialised. Pretty consistent pace...

Thanks for the encouragement out on the course yesterday Gaffer knocky1 :thumbsup: Very happy with how yesterday turned out, knocked 7 minutes off the HM PB, down to 1.32.31. A bit cooler and breezier than I was expecting, the sun came out just at the off and had my shades on ready for things...

You know it's time to pack it in when you start getting overtaken by the dead - FECK!

Time to put up my brief BM report! Came home with a five minute PB yesterday in a time of 3.28 hours, guess that would have been about eight minutes if the course had been measured right :ohmy: Hey-ho, it's still a PB and I beat my 3.30 target so I still came away happy :) Garmin tells me I...

It's great to have Parkruns back - I've really missed them! Now done the two back at my spiritual parkrun home of Hove Park, the first one I bagged myself a massive PW of 39.59 (still glad I came in under 40 minutes) was for a good cause though, went round with my other half who in the process...

I think this might be my first post of 2021!! Anyway, I'll be joining you all for the Phoenix tonight, it'll be good to see some familiar faces not seen for too long. I'll be up for a beer in the Brunswick after too :drink:

Hello folks, Firstly, a very happy new year to you all :) Thought I’d better get my review of 2020 in quickly before I start thinking about the coming year, blimey it seems like ages since I last posted an update on here! My run streak which started back in April came to an end in early...

Time to check back in with the best thread on NSC! Friday last week marked four months of my run streak, miles covered in that time came to 886. The 16th July was milestone 100 day, it was conveniently pleasing that I was able to use the run on that day to beat my 2019 annual mile tally of...

Think I'm comfortably last out of this run streak trio, I'll hit three figures on Thursday, will provide a stato update then … :thumbsup:

Time to rescue this thread from page three! Quick update on my plodding around BN41, my run streak hit three months yesterday, total streak miles of 621, total annual miles is now 1145, I'm going to surpass last years 1201 very soon :smile: With the Sept BM not being canned yet, I'm starting to...

My miles for the year now stands at 1000.92. I've also hit a new weight low today of 148 lb, down from 185 lb when I started regular weighing back in Feb 2018. Fish and chips tonight to celebrate the new milestones achieved :thumbsup:

Hello folks, my own personal run streak hit two months over the weekend. Still no individual run over 8.5 miles and certainly not getting out there with any great speed, generally between 8's and 9's. It's enough for me to keep a consistent low weight and cover all the additional wine and...

Haven't posted on here for a while, so thought I'd better sign in and say hello :wave: I had a minor groin niggle at the back end of March/first week of April which put me on the bench for 10 days, since then I've managed to go out running every day for 31 consecutive days, covering 180 miles...

A decent weekend of running, as Ninja Elephant posted in an earlier message Saturday saw me claim a new early season Parkrun PB of 21.07, shaving five seconds off my 2019 best (AG 65.11). A table update would be appreciated Gaffer knocky1. My first sub 21 time gets that little bit closer to...
