Official Running Thread

[knocky1]

I have an op next month for a Catheter Ablation. The below explains better than I can, what they'll be doing for me.

During the procedure, a doctor makes a small cut in the groin and inserts thin tubes called catheters into the femoral vein
Guides the catheters through the blood vessels to the heart using X-rays
Records the heart's electrical activity to pinpoint the source of the arrhythmia
Destroys the affected tissue using heat, cold, or electrical impulses

Hopefully I can get back to some normality with my running next year.

Sounds good treatment to get. Hope it all goes well for you and they destroy the target.

Seaford sorted my time yesterday to the correct 21:54 SB. I duly stagger above @big nuts in the table.
@penny's harmonica is now in the table and @Greg Bobkin SB has been added.
Seaford was not as quick a course as I thought. Pebbles on the lower prom meant cutting through a bike barrier and running up a small but noticeable hill. Maybe the course usually stays on the seaside of the wall?

Good to see your back on form, great run on Saturday.
Being back on the table has given me the incentive to go out in the freezing cold today which is fun and do some interval training which really isn’t.

 

[TudorApples]

Anyone else do Brighton 10k on Sunday?
I aimed for under 45 mins and very happy to come home with a 43:18.
Enjoyable event!

Am I the only one that does bad runs when all the right preparation goes to pot on the actual run?

I’m usually the opposite, piss poor prep and somehow come good on the run!

No, I've had a few occasions where it's all gone to shit on the day, but not for a while. Back then I had time targets that I wanted to hit – nowadays I don't, which makes the whole thing much more relaxing!

The worst thing used to be not actually knowing WHY it went wrong – there are probably posts on this thread of me trying to figure out the reasons behind bad runs.

Not much happening in winter but any good websites for local 10ks or 10 milers / halfs?

Oh thanks! I thought you had to be in a club (which i am not) but not seen that site before, decent
