J2R Jan 2019 2:58pm, 9 Jan 2019 1,742 posts	0 J2R I put on 2.5kg myself. Lost one of them since, fortunately. Should be back to racing weight in a week or so. It does make a difference, even a couple of kg.
edison Jan 2019 3:07pm, 9 Jan 2019 821 posts	0 edison Just learned last night that the one 5k I race as part of my training clashes with me being away in Poland for the masters indoors. Was going to attempt sub 17. Guess it can wait another year

Uyuni Mar 2019 7:18pm, 19 Mar 2019 1,571 posts	0 Uyuni Anyone up for some savage relay action the weekend? I'll not be getting round Sutton Park in sub-18 that's for sure, but after improving from 19:54 to 19:15 last time hopefully I'll get under 19. We've got a pretty good team out if everyone makes it, so possibly threatening to qualify for the first time. That would be a mixed blessing as most of the team, myself included, are doing a marathon on the day of the Nationals which would be a bit of a bugger

stuart little Mar 2019 6:04pm, 22 Mar 2019 1,592 posts	0 stuart little Sadly no relays for me this spring either thanks to a litany of illnesses and injuries. It'll come back at some point though!
