I haven’t done one for a long, long time but I jumped into a Zwift race today, on a Team Time Trial. I found it strangely enjoyable - albeit pretty tough!!

WP - I'm currently rotating 21 pairs of shoes and have another 3 pairs unboxed. So for now there's no room at the inn. 😉

Big G - talking of time trials, as NL is so very flat it would be an ideal location for a MAF test while you're away.

Blimey 21 pairs I am rotating 4 pairs!

You need more miles so you can retire a pair😃

Raptors claws are coming to town
21 pairs of shoes actually in use? Blimey :-O (Not that I'm an angel in that regard, mainly because my shoes never seem to wear out or lose their bounce.)

Possibly Shades. It can be windy though, because it’s so open.

Big G - that's the trouble with flat areas.

Shoes have been selected for tomorrow's run 😅

About This Thread

Maintained by Shades
Back in December 2005 I started a thread on Runner's World offering a marathon training plan on 3 runs a week. I had my own running club at the time (Womens Running Network) and I had successfully trialled the training plan when I took a group of girls to Dublin to run their first marathon.

Over the years the thread has evolved into a chat thread, with a bit of training advice, race reports, for predominantly marathon runners.
