That's bound to have an impact on your running, Dvorak. Plus you have the Scottish wind and rain to contend with.

Running and training generally- on returning from work I generally feel much more like having a beer, and often a sleep. I am trying sometimes to postpone these until after a little bit of activity, sometimes. Unusually though, I can't currently blame the weather, for parkruns anyway. Apart from one brutally windy day on the prom at Cramond

At least it's flat there, unlike the whole of the rest of Scotland

I’m hovering between 33.15 and 33.30 at the moment, can’t seem to improve on that.

GimmeMedals I’ve done Project Joker a couple of times and found it quite effective. I’m just a bit lazy at the moment and putting off starting it again!

I would like to join in not run a 5k since 2019 which was 26.45 but I know I am nowhere near that at the moment. Looking at last 10k I came in at 31.05.I also have 2 @5k races coming up before end of year.

The last 5K I did was in Feb. 2020, when I recorded 28:20. I have just had 2 months off running with a knee injury, and for much of that time I couldn't walk very much. Now I am cautiously getting back to running, and it will probably be another 2 months before I feel fit to try a parkrun again. I admire the efforts of all of you, but I think it will be a long time before I can get to sub-30 min. again - if ever, as I am just coming up to my 77th birthday in a couple of weeks. I hope you don't mind me joining you here. |
