Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What else is going on in your life ITG?
If I've learnt anything over the last couple of years it is that non exercise related activities/issues can have an much as an effect on performance as training (or lack of it).

I’ve run. I’m finding it a struggle at the moment, also because of other things. My only motivation is to keep up with the 700 mile target.

Not really sure, TeeBee. I last ran a marathon in 2021 (peebee!), in 2022, ran a 32km trail run, and in May 2023 injured my back so was out all summer. I started building up distance again in the Fall include a few half-marathon training runs and as of January have been following my marathon training plan, albeit lacking in gusto. I really think it might just be hormones fluctuating/declining. I'm about 2kg over my 2021 weight so I don't think it is that. But I am not really doing gym/weight training because it is SOOO boring. In 2020, I had to give up crossfit because Covid and then the gym shut. At that stage, it was probably the only time in my life that I could deadlift more than my own bodyweight (which is not admittedly very much).
