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!

strava is being wildly optimistic about a club mate’s abilities. A pity the developer is not readily to hand to fix such issues. ;)

I'm guessing he had his watch recording when he last took a flight with the Red Arrows.

He blows up spectacularly between 1k and 1 mile :-)

Flying. The 200m between half a mile and 1 km is done in less than a second. Most impressive!

Thing is, his actual PBs are quite sensible, those figures are what strava thinks he ought to be able to achieve 🤷‍♀️

[I don't think they are, they are real GPS bits from some of his runs. Click on them and you'll see where the dodgy bits are, and they can get flagged for cropping or deleting. Usually happens when a car is involved, but in his case he must own ThrustSSC as his daily commuter...]

If you think that's impressive... I recorded this 0.11 second lap on an easy run a few years ago:



I can't remember what training I was doing back then, but it was clearly working!
