NZD 19 Jan 7:38pm, 19 Jan 2025 294 posts	0 NZD @Torque Steer very positive 5.2 miles for you this morning. Unfortunately about to lose the temperatures (& rum). One more day here then in London and Zurich for the rest of the week 😕. @alehouse, alas nothing other than a coconut! (well to be fair there were loads of nibbles, food and drink put on afterwards). Plus a running top and towel in the race pack. But not a cheap one to enter. Quite a bit over $200 NZ. Really pleased to hear your knee is holding up well @Canute.

Torque Steer 19 Jan 8:41pm, 19 Jan 2025 230 posts	0 Torque Steer @NZD excellent PB - and cleaning up on the AG - and your buddy on the 60-69 AG - that'll show the locals, unless they imbibed too freely at the rum stops!! Expensive race to enter - sad fact of life nowadays for most races. @Canute good to hear your knee is still holding up. Wordle in four - and the door not rehung yet:-(

Torque Steer 20 Jan 1:07pm, 20 Jan 2025 231 posts	0 Torque Steer @NZD - have a safe onward journey - there is apparently a >250mph jetstream flowing over the Atlantic so you may get to the UK a bit earlier! Another dreak day here as I did a "fast" one mile and then a steady plod of another 1.25 miles in 25 min with HR 124/140 - enough today Wordle in five

EarlyRiser 20 Jan 1:45pm, 20 Jan 2025 1,576 posts	0 EarlyRiser Congrats @NZD. Sometimes a good moan about the weather beforehand sets us up to perform well? Also in UK for a week or so from mid-week. Hoping for a park-run or two, will be interested to see what times I can make. Otherwise training going well. 14k long run yesterday and venturing onto some trails underfoot. 6k easy today and felt relatively effortless. Good to hear knee holding up well @Canute.
