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!

Project Joker final 5k run tonight. Benchmark run at the beginning of PJ was 33.14. Tonight’s 5k on the same route....31.53.
I’m really happy with that...still quite a way to go to get sub 30, but definitely going in the right direction.

Lin, that's a great leap forward - 1:21 really is good. You'll get to 30 min. little by little, perhaps 20 or 30 seconds per month, but keep working on tempo runs, intervals & strides etc. as well as easy-paced running.

Well done, lin50 that’s a great improvement. :)

I started Project Joker on March 27th. My benchmark run was 30:30. I was planning on doing a parkrun to finish my PJ attempt on June 5th. The restart has, of course, been postponed but I will do a retest on that date and see how I get on. Hopefully it’ll be sub 30. :)
